10 big fat gypsy weddings a year or are you a wedding photographer or drinks server, my point is 10 WEDDINGS A YEAR?
im sikh, when i went to india for 6 months (holiday) i probably went to 30 weddings in 6 months, my uncle was a politician though at the time (passed away now) and literally got so many invites and so many boxes of barfi (indian sweets) with every invite, we had to start giving them away.
we are usually invited to about 30+ weddings a year, but a lot of them are far away. i have been to india, canada, london, leeds, birmingham, etc for weddings.
it's a part of our culture and tradition, this year i went to london for one, a few in glasgow, science centre, thistle hotel, etc.
im getting married next year, my best mate 2 weeks before me, my fiancee's best mate 1 week after us. so thats basically 3 extremely close weddings there all in one go.
it's like that every year, same goes for birthday's, anniversary's etc.
sikh weddings are huge and the average cost of a sikh weddings is 40-60K.
we dont just have 1 party either, you get a ladies sangeet, which is the night the women do a bit of traditional singing, and jago, etc. so that is uaully a big party too, and then other smaller parties.
basically when there is 1 wedding your guaranteed at least 2 big parties, in halls/hotels, etc as well as smaller parties for other stuff in marquees in back gardens.
as an example for my wedding i have booked a photographer from london for 6 days, thats because im having 2 parties, fiancee is having 3 parties and then our wedding is on the saturday and the reception on the sunday.
basically you need at least 3 different outfits minimum when your invited to a wedding.
HA-Ha!
