This is a few pictures and video from the wedding from our Ethiopia Culture Camp this last weekend. A rural wedding last around a week and the whole village is involved. The men accompany the groom to the brides house where her party is waiting. The women meet the groom outside and tell him that he can't come in. The men try to woo the women by squirting perfume and they have a brief encounter until the groom enters the house to take the bride to the ceremony. It was a wonderful time! Our family enjoyed it much!
