just. just ummm asking but if turkuzbek were getting married what outfits would they wear i want ur input!! ^_^ no secret plan whatsoever!!! justttttt curious,;;
gonna trust you on that "no secret plan thing" hmmmmmm.....
okok so the first thing you gotta know about uzbek/turkish weddings is they are basically parties. especially in the rural areas.
uzbek women take their outfits very seriously since this is a very social scene and they want others to be talking about their drip. they have at least 10 different outfits to wear to weddings. this is why every wedding looks like a gala.
uzbek brides throughout the 2-3 day wedding processions(and the engagement ceremony) have at least 4-5 different outfit changes and all of them slay so hard.
wedding outfits: the usual white dress, tuxedo combo. the bride has a jeweled headband or tiara. here's a link to an uzbek wedding store that could give you some inspo but tbh...any wedding dress is fine as long as it's white.
engagement ceremony, bachelorette party: usually a modified version of uzbek traditional clothing, link here

I've looked over turkish wedding traditions and a lot of them overlap with uzbek wedding traditions: it lasts for about 2-3 days.
prequel: Fatiha-to'yi: the engagement ceremony. usually when this happens it's a sign to anyone else who was gonna propose to basically just give up lol. it's confirmed, they're officially fiances. engagement rings are given here(usually to the bride since uzbek men don't wear rings, but a lot of turkish guys do wear rings, esp wedding rings so....dazzle dazzle sadik. just as long as it's not a gold ring!). in uzbek tradition, they break bread in half, which reaffirms the officiation of the engagement.
day 1: qiz to'yi(or qiz vechir)/kına gecesi: day 1 is basically the bachelorette party, and it's about the bride and her close family and friends. in uzbekistan, it can be hosted in the bride's house or a venue/restaurant could be rented out. gifts are given to the bride's family.in turkey, the bride and wedding guests will have henna applied onto them in fun designs, and traditionally this was believed to protect the couple from evil.
day 2: nikokh toy'i: day 2 is when the bride and groom officially get married. in the very early morning, uzbek fried rice(osh/pilaf) is prepared in the groom's house for neighbors and guests to eat. around the daytime is when the groom arrives at the bride's house, and they're married by an imam(leader of your local mosque).
in turkey, there's a tradition where the groom tries to take the bride away from her home, with her family members "refusing to open the door" as a joke. the groom has to knock many times, and sometimes has to bribe the family with money or candy to let her go.
(i can see uzb's siblings being very, very adamant to let her go lol. my man turkey has to bribe them with a few benjamins to finally see her)
and after that the two are driven to the state registry office to fill out their marriage certificate. after that, they're driven to the groom's house(or a venue wherever the wedding reception is happening) to party. if it's the groom's house a whole ensemble of people playing karnays and surnays(horns) greet them at the entrance of the house. in turkey they play davuls(drums) and zurnas(horns).
usually about 300 people on average pull up to the reception. sometimes guests aren't even close to the bride/groom themselves, they'll just hear from a friend of a friend that a wedding's happening on X date and they're down. anyway, lots of music and dancing going around, and a lot of food. in turkey, they have a traditional dance called haley, where people hold hands and dance in a circle, as the music speeds up and slows down(a bit like dabke...??)
examples of venues lol

this goes on until like. quite late into the night(1-2am). there's all sorts of traditions, like the groom eating a bit of honey and then giving it to the bride to eat as well so their life is "sweet" from then on, but there's a lot of regional differences i can't list lol. in turkey, the bride and groom give pocket money in envelopes to kids.
when the bride and groom is at home, the bride's friend dresses the bride up in special clothes behind a curtain in the bride and groom's room. the groom, along with his friends, has to go and pay a small sum of "ransom money" to her friend, after which they're left alone together.
day 3: kelin salom(bride greeting): on the third day, the bride is dresses in kelin sarpo with a veil over her head, as she bows lightly to guests. during this time, both sides of the family exchange gifts of things to help the new couple's household. with that, all ceremonies are over. the bride wears a bunch of new drip her parents collected and bought over the years for the next month or so.
i couldn't add much about turkey since I'm not turkish, so if anyone turkish would like to correct me on something or add on, feel free!
