    when night comes on and the wedding is still in progress and all the guests present boys arrive attired in fantastic dress and dance the bride. They come uninvited and are called Huggadas. They make great noise and fun.
    The bride is not allowed to visit her own home until a month has elapsed from the date of the marriage.
    The bride must wear at her marriage something old, something new something borrowed and something blue.
