After a couple in this country has pledged their vows, their family and best friends ‘lasso’ them together with a special rope. This rope can often be very elaborate, made of crystals or beads and is tied in a figure-eight shape to symbolize the couple’s lasting unity.

If you go to a wedding in this country, don't be shocked if you see the father of the bride spitting on her dress for good luck. For the Maasai people, spitting on someone is seen as a show of respect. Hoping not to jinx the marriage, the spit is meant in good faith.

The first intoxication, the first hangover

This love is new, this wait is new

What should I make of myself, O restless heart

My restless heart, you only tell me this

The first intoxication, the first hangover

Pehla nasha, pehla khumaar

Naya pyar hai, naya intezaar

Kar loon main kya apna haal, aye dil-e-beqaraar

Mere dil-e-beqaraar tu hi bata

Pehla nasha, pehla khumaar

Whenever I see a girl then my crazy heart says

Ole ole ole, ole ole ole

I slowly start to sing and dance my friend

Ole ole ole, ole ole ole

Ole ole ole, ole ole ole

Gaaun tarana yaara jhoom jhoom ke haule haule

Ole ole ole, ole ole ole

In parts of this country, grooms cannot leave with their new wives until they've had their feet beaten. After the ceremony, groomsmen or family members remove the groom’s shoes and bind his ankles with rope before taking turns to beat his feet with a stick, or in some cases, a dried fish. Traditional beliefs say that this custom will strengthen both the groom’s vitality and his virility.

South Korea: Fish Slapping

When I saw this one girl, then I felt

When I saw this one girl, then I felt

Like a blooming rose

Like a poet's dream

Like a brilliant ray of sunlight

Like a deer in the forest

Like a moonlit night

Like a tender word

Like a candle burning in the temple

When I saw this one girl, then I felt

Ho ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

Jaise khilta gulaab

Jaise shayar ka khwaab

Jaise ujli kiran

Jaise vann mein hiran

Jaise chandni raat

Jaise narmi ki baat

Jaise mandir mein ho ek jalta diya

Ho ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

We’ve heard of whitening of a bride, but did you ever hear of blackening? In this country, there is the ‘Blackening of the Bride,’ where the bride (and sometimes the groom) are ‘captured’ by friends and family, covered in filthy things like beer, treacle, spoiled fish, feathers, and flour, then paraded through the streets for all to see.
