Experience the Beauty and Rich Traditions of a Turkmen Wedding in Ashgabat

Experience the Beauty and Rich Traditions of a Turkmen Wedding in Ashgabat
The Turkmen wedding is a beautiful widespread holiday with centuries-old traditions, a special role of older relatives, a feast for the whole world, an impressive number of guests and celebrations for more than one, and sometimes three or four days in a row. For Turkmens, a wedding is a very important stage in life. Since ancient times, the Turkmens have honored the traditions of their ancestors; therefore, the ceremonies of the Turkmen wedding, in many ways, have remained unchanged today, although the new realities of the time, of course, have made certain adjustments to this celebration.
It takes at least three days to have a wedding in accordance with both − old and new rites. And taking into account the observance of all preliminary ceremonies - at least five. Weddings can now be held at any time of the year, whereas before the wedding season was highly dependent on the agricultural life of the population. The wedding is played as a well-rehearsed festive performance; it concentrates on the experience of the people, the experience of everyday life, moral and spiritual.
Preparing for a wedding requires some effort, both physical, moral and material. Young people mostly marry for love. Sometimes it happens that a distant relative is taken as a bride. Previously, the bride was not asked whether she wants to get married or not. Now parents, of course, match their son or daughter, asking their permission to see each other, agreeing on a future wedding and about the time.
Pause
The day before the wedding, a ceremony called atgulak takes place in the groom's house. The literal translation of the word Atgulak from Turkmen language means "horse ear". Previously, these were scarves, now the gifts of the groom's mother to her new relatives (the bride's family), which are collected by the females of the family. In the courtyard, in big cauldrons, they cook traditional Turkmen dishes - pilaf, dograma, yarma, bake katlama, chelpek, and pisme.
As a gift, women bring wedding gifts, sweets in bundles of scarves of various sizes, fabric cuts, carpets, rugs. When they leave, they receive gifts that are equivalent to what they brought. The guest, touching their gifts, says the words: "Bizede hudai etersin" which means: «May we also have weddings in our house». The ceremony lasts about 3-4 hours, and then the guests go home.
Pause
The next day of the morning, the bride is dressed up and prepared for the arrival of the groom. Despite its extreme conservatism, a wedding dress is always distinguished by rich ornamentation and decorations.
Previously, certain days were chosen for cutting and sewing a wedding dress which was considered successful among Muslims. The well-being of the bride depended on this. The dress was cut and sewn in the bride's house from fabric obtained from the groom's house. On this occasion, her close friends gathered in the house. This dress was cut by a woman respected in the village, a mother of many children, starting with a blessing.
Today we have told you only about some of the wedding traditions of the Turkmen people, but even based on this, we can confidently say that Turkmen weddings are the most colorful, the most sincere and the warmest.
We wish you all the best. See you on the next releases. Bye Bye

Don't the grooms also abduct the brides? I've heard it's a huge problem there and in Uzbekistan. Sounds awful.
