Chocolate Throwing Ceremony After the Marriage

In our community marriages, after the wedding ceremony was over, a chain was put on the bride’s neck as an indication of marriage and chocolates were thrown at people. It is a funny thing on all our weddings to put chocolates and small biscuits inside a beautiful pashmina shawl. Two young ladies would hold the shawl on the top of the bride, sitting. They will keep it until the marriage ceremony was over and would throw them at the mass. Little kids would fly to grab the thrown off chocolates. It is our belief that if these chocolates are put into the mouths of unmarried girls or boys by an elderly woman, they will get married soon. So, it will be funny to watch elderly women begging the kids for one or two chocolates who would have succeeded in grabbing all of them by then. Our weddings aren't great if you're on a diet!
