Re: Rukhsati Stories!

I have a few actually…

This first one is from a friends wedding that my sister attended. My sister - was from the Baraat side- said, at the time of rukhsati, everyone was of course, emotional and crying… She said, their group of friends looked around for the groom, b/c the bride was surrounded by family hugging and crying… She said they see the groom standing next to the car sobbing his eyes out – apparently he doesn’t like to see his lady love sad… ( here, I though sympathy pains applied to pregnancy only )

The second was a friends wedding few years back… plan was afterwards the couple wanted to come out and celebrate the night away with all whom had flown in for the wedding. They had been together for 11 years, nikkahfied a year prior- so, they weren’t big on the 'dulha-dulhan- off to a hotel afterwards. So, now here comes rukhsati- her parents, aunts, uncles, everyone begins to cry… then her 87 year old great-grandmother bursts out crying as though it’s a funeral procession… in midst of all this, the bride looks more frustrated than sad… the next part of what happened left many kinda shocked – she leaned over to her mom & said, “i’ll see you guys for breakfast, and for now I have to get to my after party, can we hurry this up” hahahaha… oh man, her mum looked like she was about to smack her..

Went to one in pakistan once… after the dulhan got into the car… the engine sputtered and car died… hahaha… she had to get out, wait for another car. so, everyone was back to normal talking and laughing… and then other car arrived and the whole rukhsati crying, hugging, started all over again…

Hahaha so funny! I was cracking up lol
