Moroccan Wedding Traditions

I read an article at http://www.worldweddingtraditions.com/locations/african_traditions/moroccan_traditions.html
and i thought it was very interesting because the tradition in a moroccan wedding would be that it lasted for about four to seven days. It says, "On her wedding day, it is a Moroccan wedding custom for the bride to have a ceremonial purification milk bath before a ritual henna painting (Beberiska) of her hands and feet" and I thought that was very different compared to other cultures. I also thought it was interesting when the article said, "Once the couples wedding vows have been exchanged, and before the newlywed Moroccan bride becomes the mistress of her new home, she walks around the outside of her house three times" I thought this was cool because its different and it's cool to see what other cultures do for their wedding day. And I liked how their traditions are still going around now.
