Cindy's Maticoor Night Celebration - A Guyanese wedding.

Cindy's Maticoor Night Celebration - A Guyanese wedding.
The night before the wedding, the women gather at the family homes of the Dulhan (bride) and Dulha (groom) to partake in the Maticoor. Dig Dutty is performed by the married women of the families, a short ceremony where homage is paid to Mother Earth by turning over soil nearby the wedding house, and Dharti Puja is performed. The women sing and dance to the beat of tassa drums and form a procession to and from the wedding house as they carry back the soil. The Dulhan and Dulha sit for this special puja separately in their respective homes. Prayers are performed, haldi is rubbed on the Dulhan and Dulha, and the two families gather at their respective wedding house to cook traditional Guyanese delicacies to be enjoyed at the wedding.

@@Emoly123 you will be highly mistaken imagining indian wedding(eastern indian) by seeing Bollywood wedding.
