What makes a wedding? Why do weddings matter?
How does the stuff of weddings - the gifts, decorations, clothing, and symbols - communicate ideas about marriage in different cultures around the world?
This exhibition provides a glimpse into how weddings and marriage are celebrated in five different countries of the world - and also how they are changing - through photographs and objects that we have collected as part of a collaborative research project in Social Anthropology at the University of Edinburgh.
