So you want to get married. Try this.
This is the wedding season in Nepal, chosen by religious leaders depending on star constellations as the most auspicious time for a long and happy married life. The celebrations are spread over several days, always involving a local wedding band, with both brides and grooms families hosting a party at home, and a street parade between homes with guests walking or driving behind the band. No tin cans tied to the wedding car, those are real flowers.
The band regularly entertains our neighbourhood since their practice hall is quite close.
