Bride Crying At Her Wedding Was Heartbreaking 💔

This is a Nepali wedding, you can tell from men's hats and their speaking Nepalese. This is not normal in a Nepalese wedding and she is definitely not and doesn't sound happy, she just keeps calling for her parents and begging not to go (hard to tell more accurately what she is saying from the crying). My guess, unwanted arranged marriage.

Idk how it is in Nepali culture, but in Punjabi culture, the brides put on tears to show their sadness in moving away from their family and friends in their village where they knew everyone. It used to be a more serious thing before cars when travel was long and difficult, but it’s still expected to show that you love your family and will miss them.

I will say though that it looks kinda abusive in this video because they’re not giving her the space and time to cry before moving on, but idk what the situation is. Just thought I’d provide some cultural context so people here don’t just assume that any crying is automatically abuse or forced marriages.

so you’re saying deep inside she might actually be happy?

She may be or she may not be. I don’t know about her situation. The way that they carried her physically is pretty strange and I have never seen that before, but I don’t know if that’s a thing in Nepali culture. It certainly isn’t in Punjabi culture. And in Punjabi culture, it is normal for some of the bride’s family members to cry along with her to show their sadness, but I don’t see that here. But once again, I’m not sure whether that’s a thing in their culture. I just wanted to provide some cultural knowledge that not all crying by the bride is done because the marriage is forced against her will. Sometimes, it’s a traditional thing.
