" The #rusmat ceremony " is a part of the never ending list of traditions in a #Bangladeshiwedding and unlike "juta churi" and "gate dhora", the groom does not end up suffering with a lost shoe or a large sum of money. After a bright fabric is placed over the head of both the groom and the bride and a mirror is placed between them. The groom is asked to say out loud what he sees in the mirror so that the entire audience can hear and the task of the #groom is to use a metaphor to describe the beauty of his #bride. In modern times, the replies are more personal since most couples know each other prior to getting married. However in the olden days many groom used to see his bride for the first time during this ceremony in case of a traditionally arranged #marriage. . . . . . #illustration #dhaka #bangladesh #biyebari #art #instaart #dhakayeah #wedding #southasia #desiwedding #desi (at Golf Garden)
