Hello, my name is Lilit, I'm from Armenia. Today, my question is what is an ideal wedding?
For me, an ideal wedding includes both traditional and non-traditional elements of a wedding and traditionally, I think a bride should be wearing a white dress and the groom should be wearing a suit. In Armenia, we have this tradition when a groom has to pick up the bride from her home, and I think this moment is really emotional when he sees her for the first time and then together, they go to the church. Going to the church is an important part of Armenian weddings, and I think it's really beautiful.
After that, there is a session for taking photographs in the nature or somewhere beautiful, and then everyone goes to a restaurant to celebrate the wedding. The ideal celebration starts with the groom and the bride having their first dance which is usually a tango or a waltz and after that, it's all just really crazy because everyone's drinking, eating, and there's lots of dancing until everyone is really tired, and they just decide to go home.
