First of all, i wish happiness to my friends!
yesterday married my friend whom i have known since childhood,when the people you grew up with start getting married one by one, you realize that you have grown up. You realize that you don't understand how quickly time passes and you guess the next stage will be the shock you when you see your children playing together.
We went to the hotel where the wedding, take place with our friends, the hotel was very beautiful and it was very crowded before the wedding started. Since my friend's family is a very big family, there was a lot of crowd even though it was early :)
We entered the room, took our seats and wait for them.
While we was waiting, i tasted the food brought.They brought 3 different meals during the wedding and they were all delicious!
After waiting for a while and meeting the family members there, they entered the hall with the entrance music,I could see the excitement on their faces, there were a thousand people for them and wanted to be with them on this happy day :)
After the first dance, the party started!
After they finished their first dance, the artist and his team came to the stage and began to sing traditional songs.
A very crowded team started to play our traditional dance "halay". Of course i was there too, and we danced non-stop for about 2 hours,and yes without any rest :))
WHAT IS HALAY : It is a Turkish folk dance that has different types and is played collectively by holding hands, arm in arm or holding hands with drums and zurna. "WIKIPEDIA"
If you look carefully at the photo, you can see the beginning of the circle on the left and the end of the circle on the back right. While doing this dance, hands are held and rhythmic movements are made together
The room was so big and crowded that there were projections 4-5 different places for the people sitting in the back can watch our dance.
After two hours dancing in the "halay", which lasted for about six hours, I was really tired and ready to congratulate my friends and go home. What really shocked me was that the old people there kept playing for four hours :D
This wedding was a more traditional wedding, of course not always that way. My another friend getting married soon and will be having a different style wedding. Stay tuned as I will share it with you! :)
