  • Hora. Within Jewish weddings, guests will dance to the upbeat song of Hava Nagila, which certainly promotes a great deal of fun within the reception. To accompany the dancing, guests will hoist the bride and groom up into the air among chairs, to celebrate them as the “King and Queen” of their big day.

  • Henna. Throughout Middle Eastern nations, along with India and Morocco, brides will take part in a Henna party. During this ritual, the bride’s hands and feet will be adorned with swirling floral patterns that are painted on with Henna, which is a plant-derived dye mixture. Once dried, the Henna will showcase a gorgeous red tattoo appearance, which is said to protect the bride from evil spirits.

  • Red beauty. Red is said to symbolize good fortune, luck, and prosperity throughout countries such as India, Asia, and China. Therefore, brides choose to wear a red silk embroidered dress on their big day. In addition, details throughout the reception décor can also be discovered in red, such as paper lanterns, hibiscus flowers, and linens.
