I like the intersection of background and how the US influences it (I am assuming, but not sure this is the same for Canada). White is a huge no no in a lot of Asia, and red is the best color. In my background we wear our traditional fancy dress, but the bride wears a crown. We also don't get given away, the couple walks together down the aisle, which I really like. There would be a procession to the church from the bride's home, with fiddler's and everyone would go as a big group. Since I'm grandfather and fatherless, I think I may go the give myself with my spouse route.

I have friend having an American-style Catholic wedding here and then an Indian wedding in her fiance's home in India. It's been fun seeing the difference in the traditions. She apparently dresses like an old lady because her engagement sari was in pastels.
