I just came from a Polish wedding. A few weeks ago I met a Polish girl, and among the many topics of conversation between the differences between our countries, came the question of the marriage, had earlier heard that Heran very different from ours, and talking to her I said I like to see some, and said and done. I was invited to the wedding of a friend of hers. First of all weddings comment here are 1 ° in court and then in the church. This couple had already been married one year and now celebrating their marriage in the church.
We arrived at the church and in general like the English, a lot of paraphernalia and all as a fairy tale, to see who was best dressed, and all trying to make this ceremony was like in the fairy tales and the peliculas. The newlyweds arrived in a carriage, and the entrance to the church 8 military with their swords by a tunnel to pass the couple (the groom is in the military), and throughout the ceremony, was flanked in the hall. He went dressed in full uniform and she in immaculate white. In general the most striking was the priest, who was a 2x2 boar, at least 200 kilos in the channel. In general the church wedding is not unlike the English, or at least I think so, since everything was in Polish.
After the ceremony we went outside the church and the people lined up to congratulate the couple as they said, should desarles something for their future, at the same time, there was a delivery of gifts. All the girls would give him thea, was small and there was nothing different from the English. There were long tables not round, where were the names of the guests. My first surprise was that the couple did not sit at a separate table with their parents, but sat with friends, in fact very close to me play them Oliwier friendship with them. Second, is what surprised me was that once sat upon receipt of the couple, only had 2 glasses, one small for vodka shots and one a bit more to take some refreshment after the shots, so you can get an idea as has been the celebration. Every 5 minutes someone stood up and proposed a toast to the bride and groom, so I shot to the throat, even grandmothers. All this to cANCTIONS typical Polish "Sto lat, sto lat ,..." all very familiar. The food was not one dish after another, but they were bringing food and your going to eat what you wanted, you could even start at the end, because they kept bringing in food, but as if we were in a bar. The dishes came out of the kitchen and were recovering. After 30 minutes of eating and drinking the band started playing and the couple came to inaugurate the dance, so we danced, at 30 minutes the music stopped and again to eat and drink, in that break the waiters had recovered all the food, and especially the vodka. So back to eating and drinking. In recent months I have met here in its full expression the phrase "drunk as Cossacks."
The celebration was very entertaingo, because what is certain is that they are great fun, and you're not forced to sit 5 hours in a table as in English, but that they keep moving, getting up, talking, drinking, eating ,.... I can only say that I had a very good and if I can repeat.
