All that hype about a Punjabi wedding is fine, but have you ever experienced a Gujju Aka Gujarati wedding in all its grandeur? Though Punjabi weddings are also lit but "Gujarati weddings ki baat alag hai", we have something that Punjabis don't. It's the best entertainment and fun event, especially if you're not managing anything :-P. There are certain things that happen at Gujju weddings ONLY and they are:
Garba is a must in a Gujarati wedding. It's fun seeing all the aunties finding a place in the circle and participating in the so-called ritual. Dancing over drinking, anytime!

The dry state makes it obvious, but the non-alcoholic party is like none other. Alcohol is fun, but chaach is life and every gujju will agree to this. You will find this as a refreshment in all of their weddings.
Yummy food like dhokla, faafda and all the Gujarati delicacies specially made for the guests, it's like Gujaratis welcome their guests with amazing food they won't forget in a lifetime.
Yes Punjabiyon, yes!
Gujaratis love to dance. They have a grand Sangeet celebration where all the family members express their love for the groom and the bride by a dance ceremony. Beautiful, no? If you saw Ambani's wedding, you'll know.

You'll hear aunties trying to match young girls and boys and keep a record of who is in the line. If you like gossip, you'll find like-minded people there. It's always fun to be a part of the gossips though.
While Punjabi weddings start at 11 p.m by the time Gujarati weddings are over, attending it in daytime won't be a surprise for you. Don't get shocked because the functions do not happen at midnight, but mind-noon.
Gujaratis are everywhere and most of them are in the U.S so it won't come off as a surprise when they are flying over to the USA than Canada for their holidays.
