♥ For yesterday's memories, today's love & tomorrow's dreams, I love you.
I stumped upon a multiply site and found this piece of information for future brides and grooms. and! to be honest, the information given to be VERY interesting and useful. It was actually written in Malay, but I have translated it just so the readers of other races would also be able to read and better understand the Malay custom. Without dragging it any longer, I shall present to you the post(:
"First, before the bride walked into the marriage life, there are variety taboos. Old folks are so concerned about these taboos, such as for the benefit of prospective brides and grooms. It is not a duty but a word of Malay culture. Although the bride and groom now no longer look and practices the taboo, , some are really deemed appropriate and should be followed.
1. Do not go out with the couple for 40 days before the ceremony, people concerned about accusations. In addition, it seeks to control appetite and feeling nostalgic. In this way makes the bride look more radiant.
2. Do not go out as and when they like, to prevent getting cursed by those who have bad intentions.
3. A few months before the wedding, do not eat rice with gravy dish to prevent the distended stomach.
