GHAGRA CHOLI



THE GHAGRA choli is popular with south Indians because of its appearance and modern look when compared to the old and traditional `pattu' skirt, blouse and odini. Comfortable to wear, it is also suitable for the weather of the south. It can be worn practically for any occasion - temple visits, festivals, parties and weddings. And you can drape the dupatta anyway and anywhere you want to. IT IS becoming popular in South India just what with several actresses sporting them. Most of my South Indian friends are opting for the ghagra choli as part of the trousseau, especially for the reception. GHAGRA CHOLIS are in vogue in a new Indo-western avatar in South India. Here the ensemble has taken a turn into an elegant ensemble--long skirts teamed with backless and off shoulder cholis and a stole or small dupatta. INDIA IS a symbol and embodiment of multi-culturalism. Keeping with the tradition, the dandiya is not the only excuse for the ghagra to be worn. It even seems to be the favourite among non-resident Indians.THE ENSEMBLE has caught on for sure over the past 2-3 years. Earlier people were into saris but now they are definitely fitting in ghagra choli in their wardrobe. Sabyasachi and Tarun Tahiliani are sought after for their ghagra cholis here.

THE POPULARITY of any dress depends mainly on three factors - affordability, acceptability and non-interference with the native dress culture. When it comes to acceptability and culture, the ghagra choli cannot be an alternative to the sari choli, which gives our women their cultural identity.

Because of the heavy brocade work the dress looks elegant but the costs are prohibitive. Besides it's too grand for certain occasions.

North Indian families in the south wear it but stretching its popularity to the whole of the south is not true. THE PUNJABI suit is definitely more popular in the south than the ghagra choli. The ghagra choli does not suit all, only girls of a particular age and personality. It is not as comfortable or as adaptable as the Punjabi suit especially when it comes to college girls. Therefore it is not as popular in the south as some make it out to be.

WESTERN WEEDING



Good afternoon everyone.How's life?
Today we woke up very early in the morning to attend the weeding ceremony of one of our friend that have been working here in JOYFUL ENGLISH PLAZA before.We never told her that we could make it because of our work.She was so happy and surprise after seeing us.
Traditionally, wedding expenses are paid for by the groom's family in the Philippine setting, unlike in some western cultures. But more and more couples are giving their share from their hard-earned savings. Other couples even shoulder the entire wedding expenses themselves. It normally follows that whoever foots the bill has the final say on the size of the wedding; he or she also has the 'majority stake' on guest list.

It was a tradition for the bride to hold an heirloom rosary with the bridal bouquet during the Nuptial Mass. This practice is now being revived by some brides to honor our Catholic heritage and respect the solemn occasion.
Aside from the exchange of rings, the giving of the arrhae (earnest money in the form of 13 pieces of gold or silver coins) is a part of Filipino weddings as the groom's pledge of his dedication to the welfare of his wife and children.
Soon-to-weds do not arrive at the ceremony venue at the same time. The groom is expected to arrive several minutes (an hour even!) prior to the set time of the wedding to receive guests. The bride on the other hand, usually stays in the bridal car and only alights from the vehicle just in time for her bridal march.
As part of the ceremonial dance at the reception, some couples incorporate a 'money dance' where guests pin peso (or dollar!) bills on either the bride or groom in return for a chance to dance with them.
Newlyweds release a pair of white doves during the reception to signify a peaceful and harmonious marital relationship. Catchers find themselves going home with a new feathered pet.
