Here I would like to talk about one particular occasion when I have waited for a long time and it was my brother’s marriage. Two months ago it was held in my house at my home town and initially we did a lot of shopping with my relatives and family. I bought a lot of gifts for my brother and sister-in-law and we renovated our house with the painting and other construction. We distributed marriage cards to the relatives and the sweets. After that in the near days of marriage we decorate our house with the lighting and flowers. In our marriage function there are mainly three functionaries and I enjoyed a lot in these three functions. In the evening there was one Jaggo program held at my house and in this Jaggo program we hired one dance group of people and they entertain us a lot. We sang many traditional songs in our marriage and on marriage day I wore a beautiful dress and I went to the marriage palace. At the marriage palace I ate different kind of food items and I also clicked a lot of pictures with my brother and relatives. I also invited my friends in my brother’s marriage and my sibling performed dance on the stage. In the evening we cut cake with my brother and sister-in-law and I think it was a great experience in this my brother’s marriage. It was a great experience because before I never felt a marriage enjoyable and it was a great time.
