Most wedding in different countries are guided by what some people may considered funny or sometimes 'weird'. Below are few details of such weddings:
1. Pre-planned crying, China
This tradition is common for the Tujia people in China. One month before the wedding ceremony the bride begins to cry for one hour every day. For those people this is apparently the way of expressing joy and happiness about the upcoming event. One week later her mother joins her, then her grandmother, and by the noon of the wedding day all the women of the family end up sitting and crying together in different tones.

2. Stealing the groom shoe, India
The bride’s family and friends, usually the bridesmaids, steal one of the groom’s shoes once he enters the wedding place. The groom’s family have to protect the shoe as hard as they can, although the bride’s side always wins over. To get back the shoe the groom will have to bribe the maids, they can demand as much as they want and the he will have to satisfy their demands, otherwise he will just not be able to marry the bride.

3. Spitting on the bride, Kenya
In Massai culture in Kenya the bride will also go through a lot even before her married life begins: at first her new mother-in-law will shave her head and rub it with lamb fat. And this is not the craziest thing about the Kenyan wedding: the father of the bride will then spit on her newly shaved head and breast. One would think this is the way of showing that the father feels hurt by the fact that his little daughter leaves the family, in fact in their culture spitting on someone is the way of blessing. After that the bride leaves the village with her husband and never looks back (well, after such a humiliation with the head shaved and spitted on you will hardly want to look back), otherwise she will turn into a stone.

4. Shooting the bride, china
In Yugur culture, in China, the groom shoots his bride with three bows and arrows. Sounds crazy, but stop panicking: the arrows do not have arrowheads, so the bride at least stays alive. After that the groom takes the arrows and breaks them all, showing that he will love his new wife forever. Well, that is weird, if he loves her, why would he shoot her in the first place?

5. Blackening the Bride, Scotland
This ritual is carried out on the noon of the wedding day: the bride’s closest friends and relatives collect the most disgusting things they can find, traditionally it is spoiled milk, food leftovers, dead fish, mud and some feathers on the top of that, and throw it all on the bride. She is then tied to a tree, and only after that her friends take her to a nearest bar for a night of severe drinking: and still no shower for the bride! Sounds incredible, but there is a relatively logical explanation for such a crazy tradition: the Scottish people believe that if a bride can stay all the grossness and humiliation of the pre-wedding day, the life with a husband will not be a problem for her. Seems they are not too optimistic about the marriage!

Add the Nigerian ones please!
