What happened during viral wedding? With song and dance, they were carried around the village in what seemed to be a way of showing they were now off the market and no longer single.
The man, dressed in a sharp grey suit, held his wife, adorned in a beautiful orange dress, as they waved in tune with the music. Other guests and family members followed behind, carrying gifts, mostly household items. Some had water barrels, sufurias, hoes, while others carried a two-seater chair, among other presents for the newlyweds. Song, dance, and ululations filled the air throughout the entire procession, warmly welcoming the couple into married life. The clip sparked a wide range of mixed reactions, with many sharing funny comments about the wedding. Netizens react to unique wedding tradition Lodug: “The man: I don’t have what it takes to start a family. Village people: Say no more, we’ve got you.” Dorcas: “At first, I thought it was a Ghanaian funeral until I saw them waving.”
Dylocare Pharmacy: “But some people really enjoy life. When will I get to that point?” Wildlife English & France Guide: “I pray for these newlyweds, because if they trip, those who carried that bed will be in trouble.” Janefundi🇹🇿: “There are some people who only think of death when they see a gathering. At first, I thought that bed was a coffin.” Ahmet Alp: “Guys, we need to be careful with things like this. You can end up in trouble without realising it, and this is the problem with us Tanzanians; it’s what gets us into trouble. You’ll find someone seriously reading my comment instead of writing their own.”
