Weddings. That one event where two beautiful people announce their union by calling a number of random people as witnesses. Well, I might be trivialising it a little but that's the gist of it, isn't it? What one cannot deny is that they are an absolute visual treat and in India, being home to thousands of wonderful traditions, it's never a dull affair. But beyond the common chapel weddings and the amazingly loud Punjabi weddings that we encounter more often than usual, there are many other kinds that we might not have experienced yet. Here are some of the most beautiful wedding attires from around the world that show what a visual treat weddings are.
1. The Avar bride, a Caucasus native ethnic group living in the Russian republic of Dagestan
2. The Bedouin wedding veil in Israel
3. Traditional Chinese wedding attire
4. A wonderfully colourful couple from a wedding in Ghana
5. A bride from the Gora region between Kosovo and Macedonia. Just look how intricate that artwork is!
6. A Hamar woman from Ethiopia, although she doesn't seem too pleased
7. The Hutsuls from the Carpathian mountains in Ukraine
8. You recognise this one quite well, don't you? A traditional Indian wedding

12. A traditional Korean royal wedding costume known as Hanbok
13. A Maasai wedding in Kenya where the bride is required to decorate her face and body with colourful shells and beads. It is during the wedding party where she lifts her veil and shows her beautiful self to the world

23. A fruit cake. Err, I mean a traditional bridal costume from Schaumburg-lippe, Germany
24. A lovely Scottish wedding where the groom is expected to show as much skin as the bride
25. This is what a newly married Sri-Lankan couple look like
26. A traditional Tibetan bride, almost impossible to spot
