Once I went to a Sikh event in my area just to see what it's all about. Have you guys ever gone to event from a different religion?

Been to sikh, Hindu events a few times. And Christian and jewish plenty of times. Once went to a Buddhist event when I was in Sri Lanka also. That’s about it I think.Yes, rememberence for the Sri Lankan victims of the Massacre in the local C of E Church.
Attended a muslim wedding because the groom was a friend, but no else knew me there. Was scared to see myself surrounded by the Others and returned their greetings with a wa-alaikum salaam to hide my identity and pretended to smile and socialize when I was bundle of nerves inside and couldn't wait to escape their hospitality.
A bit of "you" problem rather than their.
You really need to socialise more if you are gonna get scared of a muslim wedding
I have no issues with Muslim cultures. The only issue that I find uncomfortable is, using of that particular perfume. It's so high intensity that it has the ability to trigger migraines for the people who can't tolerate strong smells.
Both my wife's acquitances.
Sikh girl with Irish bloke. My wife went to the Sikh marriage at a Guruduwara. I joined the party. Nice of them to have halal food.
We went to anther English wedding. The ceremony itself was short and nice. No halal catering. What I enjoyed was how everyone introduces themselves on the table. Talks about hobbies. I am not sure if this happens at other weddings. But what I found strange was no kids allowed. Even the brides own neices and nephews were looked after by someone else.
Another aspect I enjoy are the funny speeches about the groom which are hillarious. At both weddings we avoided the DJ dancing.
It's very common in Pakistan to not have kids invited. Mostly it's due to cost cutting.
Bro in the UK the kids not coming is almost unheard of. Yes cost cutting is good but asking your own brother to not bring his two kids is a bit excessive I think
I am quite surprised to hear that you don't have kids coming to marriage events in Pakistan to be honest. Is that actually true?
I was talking about the UK. I am also quite surprised about what minamino said.

Minamino isn't a Pakistani so how would he know?
There is a trend in the UK to limit to 2 guests for those who aren't close to the families just to manage the numbers, but there is no hard and fast rules as you will probably know yourself. minimano claims to be a Pakistani Muslim but he comes up with some weird stuff.

But in Pakistani weddings in the UK I ve seen many children attend. Although I agree it could be possible if it wasnt limited I might have seen more kids.
I dont know who minimano is so I was quite surprised to read his comment. Maybe his intention is to just confuse people. Dont think he should get an invite to weddings![]()

Yes because Pakistanis always like to have families coming where possible, no one wants to limit to 2 guests per family, but due to trying to keep the event manageable they will limit certain guests who aren't so close. As you know, the guest lists at these weddings can run into the hundreds. Obviously there will still be plenty of kids because immediate family and friends will get full invites.
Attending events like marriages is easy.
Real task is about attending religious ceremonies of other faiths.
