In @Hoggirl case I think it’s cultural not for social media. We went to a wedding where groom was Indian and bride Jewish. They had a morning Indian wedding ceremony and lunch. All the grooms guests wore Indian attire as did the bride, her mom and sister and some of the guests. The saris were amazing and the music great. That event went till about 1:30. At 4:30 pm they had another wedding ceremony this event was a more traditional wedding under the chuppah. Both the bride and groom wore what we would consider traditional attire, long wedding gown and a suit for the groom. The Indian guests all changed. I live local so we went home in between, I can’t remember if I changed. My friend did the hair for the women and she said that was tough. Early morning for the Indian ceremony and an afternoon crunch for the late afternoon ceremony.
What we learned from the people we spoke with was that in their family everyone travels to a wedding even if it’s halfway across the globe. We also learned that this generation was having more “love” marriages which was a change in their family.
