Stages to a Bangladeshi wedding

A few days before the wedding, Bengalis would go to a party with people from their own side (bride or groom) and have a party. There would also be lots of Mehendi (Henna) and dancing!Then there is the wedding. A typical dress style would be for the bride to wear red and the groom to have the matching scarf. There would usually have a dress code. On the same day as the wedding, everyone would go to the groom's house and have another party.The day after the wedding, there is a nasta. This means breakfast although it is not always at that time! This is when the bride's family brings round A LOT of food and the groom's side would serve them rice and curry. The food they bring is usually distributed around the family.
