Customs and traditions connected with wedding ceremonies are divided into three parts: pre-wedding ceremonies, those conducted during the wedding, and those performed after the wedding. These ceremonies vary in different regions of Uzbekistan, but they have some commonalities. For example, common pre-wedding ceremonies include organizing matchmaking at the bride’s house, giving toyona (financial aid) by relatives, registering legal and religious marriage, blessing process (fotiha berish) by older people. The wedding ceremony is a grandiose conduction at both the bride’s and the groom’s houses. Post-wedding ceremonies include salom (bride’s greetings), calling relatives of the groom, and others.\n\nThis film includes the customs and traditions connected with a wedding ceremony in Margilan, Fergana.
