As the bride enters her house with
her husband, the groom's mother hold the Q'uran above her head and sometimes
flower petals are placed along the bride's path to her home symbolizing happiness
in the future. The fourth day after the wedding, which is called the Chauthi,
the bride goes back to her parents' house where they graciously welcome her.
The groom's family may have a party called the Valimah after
the wedding. This reception brings together both families and friends to celebrate
the newlyweds and their new life together.
Here the bride is being welcomed home by her family.
