    Shrove begins the day after the twelth day and it lasts until the day before Ash Wednesday.
    Some year Sherofe lasts longer than others and people have more time for matchmaking.
    When the man goes for a girl to her house for to get married, he would not come back the same road going to the Church.
    Here around principally people get married on Wednesday.
