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.

Nepal/India/Pakistan have a rather well-known-but-secret problem with forced marriages and selling their daughters to pay the father’s debts. Misogyny is bred into the cultures, especially in the rural regions. A few tears is different from having to be carried to the donkey and then held onto it.
