My fathers side of the family is a part of the Gurage tribe. In any Ethiopian tribe, a wedding is a big deal. However, every tribe has their own unique cultures and traditions they follow to celebrate. Leading up to the big day, the grooms family will have everyone invited in the wedding (except the bride) come for a big lunch at their home. After eating, the groom will come out with his close friends and family and dance. If the family is rich enough they will hire a professional camera crew to record and take pictures. They will party till night.
