Now you can simply buy a ticket to someone else's wedding in India. And a completely unknown foreigner showed up there. And the people there will still pretend that you are their distant relative.





This “attraction” for tourists was invented by a company with the sonorous name JoinMyWedding (Attend my wedding). Its founder, Orsi Parcanje, sensitively sensed the needs of tourists.

Because they want to see real, relevant traditions, and not a popular popular show “like India”.

The company collects information on weddings planned by ordinary people and asks if they are willing to sell tickets to it for a small fee.

No wedding scam



It's interesting to see how real people live

True, you need to say in advance what kind of food there will be and how many people there will be. So that the tourist gets the maximum “Indianness” from such a wedding. In particular, it should be crowded.

Because many enthusiasts immediately perked up and decided to organize a fake wedding on the cheap, selling as many tickets as possible. But such scammers are immediately cut off during the selection process, because they cannot afford a large crowd. He won't fight back.

How much does it cost to become a wedding general?



They also check whether the bride is going to look European in a white dress. They won't sell tickets for such a wedding.

$150 for one wedding day and $250 for the next. For this money, the client receives not only a sari for hire, the right to eat, drink and have fun at someone else's real wedding, but also an accompanying person.

He will explain in English what is happening now. Well, make sure that the foreigner does not do anything offensive, because he is not aware of the traditions.



They will rent a saree of your choice so you don’t feel like a black sheep.

Of course, taking into account the percentage, it is impossible for the intermediary to get the wedding ticket off the ticket. But as they say, 20 dollars is 20 dollars.

Moreover, food in India is inexpensive; a guest will never eat enough for the amount paid. Moreover, usually romantic couples buy tickets for such weddings, and that’s already two tickets.

The flight is normal



But the wedding ticket was bought by an old woman who looked like the Queen of England. And no one even offended her)

Reviews from JoinMyWedding are purely positive, because so far not a single “fake” wedding has happened. According to statistics, approximately 4 tickets are sold for one wedding.

Given the usual number of guests from 30 to 100, the foreigners blended into the general crowd and were not an eyesore. Quite a reasonable decision where greed did not outweigh common sense.



Although taking pictures with other people's relatives is quite strange...

Would you buy a ticket to sit at someone else's real wedding?
