A Turkish Wedding

[countingmx]

The description's wrong. In Turkey (which takes its secular constitution seriously), weddings generally take place at the town hall (no religious weddings). People can do what they want after, but its not official. What you stumbled upon was a reception. I have been to a couple of Turkish receptions, and they are lovely affairs, very family-centered. Nobody will get drunk and make a fool of themselves. I have the highest respect for their traditions. I'm not a Turk, but I'd recommend a visit!

TURKIYE IS THE BEST !!!!!!!!!

[beyseref]

gelinde pis somurtmus, ne derdi varsa...

[moulsepatch91]

Turkish people are mixed population.There are many different people in our country.From North of Turkey,South,and east.

[Narek7000]

The girl do not look happy

[DaCatOnTop]

ahh fuck why are people always fighting on whos the best or hottest or whateverthefuck...every culture/race/nationality/ethni­city/country has an awesome intresting traditions/music etc...youtube is fucking annoyiing with these type of comments...holy shit

[lendavis]

@DaCatOnTop I couldn't agree with you more. My invitation to you is to raise that bar with your own contribution and commentary. Stay fresh and much love.

[KwRyTangana]

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[sydneyboi4fun]

@kaimkhani72.... In western parts, u cant see most of that stupidity. I know for sure as I saw with my own eyes that, in some very eastern, underdeveloped, very religious regions girls can NOT ride bikes or even boys are required to wear long sweat pants to go out to play sports, which is very ridicilous. But in western parts or lets say, developed parts, like Istanbul, u can see everything in extreme and very marginal level. So... different parts and VERY different mentailty in same country.

[sydneyboi4fun]

@kaimkhani72.... yeah but here is the twist. In Turkey in especially western regions, you can see that type of high level opf respect and understanding and treating the woemn like sisters a lot. and in Turkey seeing people sending their parents to old age homes is almost impossible. Its a more western societies thing. BUT the twist is in Turkey, the average level of education is low. and In some areas, public's prejudices and religion plays a big role.

[fade123d]

it is same already.

[thequeenofthesun]

turkish weddings are super weird



[54Turkiye]

TURKIYE IS THE BEST !!!!!

[sSelMasSs]

@54Turkiye you're wright

[kito9154]

not gived anything for girl((((

[Gilda716]

@kito9154

bcoz its only grooms family .. and it can be so hard to carry all those money and golds for the bride..

[sydneyboi4fun]

Just pay attention people. In some cases yes Turks kiss hands of the elder people to show respect. But in this video, the guy congradulating the groom in the very end and the bride barely looks at each other and doesnt even shake hands. In some regions men deal with ONLY men and women do same with ONLY women. I know its sicka nd stupid mentality in 2011 but its very commong uneducated societies like the one in Turkey. Its funny as in some regions like western parts, the mentality is VERY modern

[kaimkhani72]

@sydneyboi4fun You are talking about modern societies. The modern society is the one that respect each other and give due weightage to relationships and especially give tremendous respect to ladies and treat them like mothers and sisters. The societies where women are treated as mere tissue papers and instrument of lust can only be termed stone age gentiles whether east or west. In such societies where parents in old age when they desperately need attention and care are sent to Old age home

[Hallgren95]

Nothing wrong with European, and in europe we don't call our self "european" we call ourself either Turkish, Swedish, Danish from what country you are. We aren't states like US and theres loads of countries in it .

[YBALOE]

LOL how can you stumble upon a wedding..

kiz hayata kusmus :))

[Hunlover123601]

A little question.... why don't the guys shake hands or something with the woman?????

[GufiKoc]

@Hunlover123601

[qwasi25]

they are such a happy couple

[genji67]

the bride doesn't look happy......i don't blame her....i mean..if i was going to get married to someone that ugly i wouldn't look happy either..hahahahaha....bitches!

[karine1282]

why they didn't put gold on the girl? I think she was looking uncomfortable because of that reason... Her husband was collecting all the gold... Poor girl

[07kursatben]

@karine1282 because that was her family next his family will come and put gifts on her.

[TheMrKoray]

@karine1282 in Turkey you have to want to girl from her father.sometimes families dont wanna couple marriage then boys take the girls and escape untill their family agreed with them maybe escape but her father didnt forgive her.so her relatives didnt came that wedding for this reason.it can be like this :Pp

[sollucet87]

@TheMrKoray In my case my dad said yes..we engaged (by turkish customs), his family organized all... then 7 days after engagement his mom decided im not appropriate culturally (im not turkish, im bosnian) so she forced him (my ex fionce) to brake engagement..so he left me:T Can I steal him and run to bosnia:)??

[TheMrKoray]

@TheMrKoray yea its possible :) you go girl :Pp

[kurdlands]

@TheMrKoray waw interesting tell me more,same in our society

[RainstRom1]

@kurdlands almost everything the same between turks and kurds my freind...i know cos my mum is kurdish my dad is turkish :D

[rafifhimar]

voll hässlige braut

[deprikizi19]

valla bi kelime ingilizce anlamadim ama eger bu video yu koyup alay etmek isteyen yada bu videodan utanan varsa kendinizi kandirmayin arkadaslar... örf ve adetimiz bu bu bizim kültürümüz bundan utanan yada alay eden kabul etmek istemeyen kendini türk olarak saymasin bence.. :)

[sultanmehmedhan]

Bundan utananlari kiniyorum...

Kardesim biz buyuz kültürümüz budur! Türkiyede dügünler hep böyle geçiyor.

[stawrit1]

gold is the main present at weddings.because gold is precious matter what

[mongtits]

sprry but england is a mess of a country......turkey is a beautiful country full of respect for each other and everyone...england needs to take a leaft out of its book

[BlanketCute]

so happy to see others being so happy....masyaallah...

[rieltje1]

yeah the girl looks like the happiest girl in the world.....

I didnt see her smile a single bit!

[JackNapier19]

@rieltje1 I agree, that's ridiculous from her !

[P4u1a]

the bride donest look so happy lol

[ikicihan]

at the end of the wedding, visitors gave money, gold or presents to the new couple. it is a tradition. i saw these scene many times.

they look tired cus most of the time the weddings are so long. it is anatolian culture.

some families fan of europa or america dont care about these traditions. thats why they deny. what a pity!

[princessofDBZ]

turkey is asian, europe and turkey is really different even if they enjoy europe im turkish by myself and I think the europe is lame

[kontragerilla]

they are not depressed, they are just tired, because this is gift -giving ceremony, and a gift-giving ceremony happens short before the end of the wedding,

[jamie827]

merhaba! Nasilsiniz?

[yediat]

Sağol iyiyiz :P

[FrunzaDeLut]

well,being European is not always a great thing.Turkey has a more beautiful culture than many European countries.

[deCaravagio]

There are sooo European!!!!

TURKEY = EUROPE

[aporia82]

we don't give a shit about europe my friend... it should be all yours...

[polopolak]

bravo Gyotaturks

[DjParadoxNYC]

Ok, call me ignorant, but what exactly is everyone doing? Is what they put on the sash a way of saying "Here's my blessing"? Someone please explain :D

[RainstRom1]

Ppl give money or gold at weddings for help some to form their home in Turkey;)

[asyachopsticks]

It's not that different from the western tradition actually. you know how the couple registers to a shop and you go and buy them presents they can use... In turkey, all the guests give some sort of gold piece to the couple, so that they can sell these pieces after the wedding and use the money to build their new home or maybe pay for the wedding. since all the guests come up to the couple one by one and give their gifts, it takes too long and i guess that's why they look so tired and miserable.

[dodomodtr]

sanki zorla evlendiriyorlar gibi bir halleri var

[entict]

That's showing respect for the Older people.That's something that you can't understand

[12081985]

and you are a devil

[TurkeyArabic]

Hahaha das sind Kurden man...kucktma bitte wie der redet...sagolsun varolsunlar...what für ein Dialekt...:D

[Mahidevran]

Bazi Türkler / Müslümanlar kendi kültürlerinden, adetlerinden ve tarihlerinden utanmalarina üzülüyorum.Bu kompleks nereden geliyor? Hz. Muhammed bir hadisinde söyle buyuruyor: "Aslini inkar eden soysuzdur".

Ekleyecek baska sözüm yok.

[DomiCro1]

they dont seem happy hmm

[onurcakmak]

This is very stresfull part of the Turkish weddings. It takes too long time, that is why :)

[babilon323]

[TurkishDelite1]

[fez30756750]

[TurkishDelite1]

[UfukHLBG]

gelin hic mutlu görünmüyor.... :/

[IllegaLPurple]

even people from one and same country that have same culture and habits can in some point differ in traditional ceremonies, so open your eyes and mind, and besides there is nothing wrong with this wedding and THEIR CHOICE, the most important thing is the marriage, hope they will grow old together.

[CutieHoni]

was das für ne hässliche Hochzeit man ?? peinlich ...

[CheekylMonkey]

[LiebesApfel88]

[hephaistionLOVER]

[simarik115]

[iqra31]

You would look unhappy too if you had to marry your brother.

[MysteriousStranger85]
