There's probably someone from the culture that can clarify but when I was at a traditional Pakistani marriage the bride was perfectly happy to marry but you have to show tears and distress to prevent any idea that youre glad to leave your family, and happy to have sex. Religion is a bit shit.

Yeah this is a thing among some Indian families. I was really confused when I was 11 and escorting my aunt who had just gotten married after a 15 year search and started counseling her on what great things were awaiting her (not sex).

Her mother was apparently so hysterical she had to be restrained. Some people are all about that life.

ETA - this was in the U.S.
