An Indian Wedding in America

An Indian Wedding in America

The weekend of October 28 my whole family went to Detroit. We visited a friend who had a new baby and then went to the wedding of a friend.

For starters Ekta came to Michigan tech as a student, we met her because she agreed give Rachna dance lessons. Through her personality and demeanor she played a very impressionable role in our young daughter=s life and has a very special place in our hearts as well.

Ekta and her groom Rajan both hail from the India so the crowd was predominantly Indian but there were people from many backgrounds. Many people had flown from all over the world for this occasion. Amit (Ekta=s older brother) told us that there were people from 4 continents at the wedding. We were welcomed and respected by our hosts, warmly and honestly.

It was a traditional Hindu wedding, A rich and unbelievable occasion to which I could never do justice. It was overwhelming to see a wedding of this caliber and detail taking place in America.
