Shopping is done by the groom for this meal. In a bou bhat ceremony, bride wears a traditional shari given either by her father or in-laws, while the groom wears a traditional dhoti or shalwar and pair with kurta or sherwani given to him by his in-laws. The ritual varies from one place to another. In some places, the bride has her first meal in the home of her in-laws during this ceremony. Until bou bhat, her meals usually arrive from a neighbour's house. While in some parts, like in eastern Comilla, firani is held after eight days, called at naiyor. (en) |
