A FUNNY MARRIAGE CEREMONEY WE ATTENDED

Last week our younger daughter was going to her in-laws house in other city by SHANE BHOPAL Express, I along with my son and grand son went to see her off at the station and decided to attend the one marriage of my old colleague’s son on return trip. As we proceeded towards venue we were in two traffic jams at two places that too because of marriage parties dancing on the roads and occupying entire road , the traffic was bumper to bumper crawling on snails pace it took more than an hour to reach the venue. By the time we reached it was around 10/30 in the night all the eatables were at their end, few stalls were still serving but they were crowded and the food was not good, we searched in all the directions but instead of food found ourselves talking to old family friends and neighbors it took some more time . Some how we managed to entangle our selves and to our horror the plates were dirty and the remaining food was also not good. We could not find paper plates and other plates were dirty , we managed to get some Luke warm coffee and decided to eat some thing from out side. Then found the host nearby but he was busy in his duty of seeing of guests and receiving late comers like us no body was looking towards the food stalls whether food is available or not, we made one final round and found nothing worth eating and decided to leave and to stop on the way home at some eatery. All of us were so annoyed and disappointed that we thought not give the present we brought for this purpose but this family has given present in our daughters marriage there fore we gave the present but with heavy heart. On the way home we could not find any eatery due to late hours because our neighbor hood closes early , by the time we reached home every body was asleep , we searched for some thing to eat in the kitchen found few PURIES which were left and ate them with sauce and tae, we decided that we will not any other marriage in that family in future. Boys were taking some thing with their evening tea I asked them not to have any thing solid as we have to attend the marriage, but they had some thing which kept them fit to wait till we finally reached home. People invite lot of guests without thinking whether they can manage the crowd or not one should finalize the list ad calculate exact no of guests to be invited and then only tell the caterer to prepare meals. Any how this was a funny experience for us also one to always remember ,never to go to a party without having some thing with evening teas.
