Marriage is always a big deal in a person’s life. ... In my South Asian heritage, most people get married through arranged marriages. ...
Arranged marriages are always big events in the South Asian heritage. ... I remember my mother saying that the same matchmaker had arranged her marriage about twenty-three years ago. ... Tradition required all of this to be worn for marriage festivities. ... I personally saw that in this marriage my aunt was making all the decisions. ...
All this arranged marriage seemed a big blur to me. ... I personally did not feel comfortable with the idea of an arranged marriage. ... They talked to each other and discussed about themselves and their expectations out of a marriage. ... She charged a hefty fee for all the meetings and the final stage, marriage. ... It was a big day for me to see two people who were arranged by a matchmaker to get married. I had really never seen the way an arranged marriage was completed. Even after experiencing my entire heritage for a month, I still did not realize why his marriage had to be arranged. ... Although I think my parents will probably not use the traditional South Asian philosophy of an arranged marriage, they will use a modified arranged marriage system, a system in which I choose my bride without a matchmaker. I think that the circumstances of my marriage will probably be different than my cousin’s because I live in a different society. ... I will still use traditional customs but not the custom of an arranged marriage.
