In India, especially in the South, a bride is very well-dressed. During the marriage ceremony, she wears a silk "sari" an indian traditional dress, she has a lot of fresh flowers on her hair and she also wears many gold jewels like necklace, bangles,earrings...(look at the photo), that day, she is the most beautiful and she looks like a princess.Her family has to give dowry to the groom's family so that she's respected by her parents- in- law.During the celebration, the groom puts one gold chain called "tali" on the bride's neck, symbol of the wedding ring in Europe and she has to keep it till her husband is alive.The groom also puts a silver ring on her toe called "metti".Once the marriage is celebrated, the couple is united for eternity and the bride has to leave her parents and to live with the groom.
