During the wedding in my country Conga a bride wears a white dress, white shoes and a white veil. A groom wears a black suit and black shoes. The wedding can be in a church or in a government office. A woman can get married at age 18 years old and a man can get married at age 21 years old. 100 people come to the wedding. Some traditional food can be chicken, potatoes, rice, salad, chips and special cake. Some traditional drinks at the reception can be juice, beer, and champagne. Marriages can’t ever be arranged by parents. Typical gifts to the bride and groom can be a car, house, bed, sofa, table, plates, armchair, glasses, and a television. A wife’s duties are to clean, cook, wash dishes, and go shopping, vacuum. A husband’s duties are to go to work and make money. Sometimes a couple goes on a honeymoon. Usually a bride takes her husband’s last name. A couple lives apart from their families. There are not many divorces in my country.
