The wedding

Today I have been at went to the wedding of a friend of my boyfriend. It has been was my first wedding here in Italy. Actually weddings here are similar to Spanish weddings. First we have been  at went to the church. I don't usually like churches, because they all seem the same to me, but this one was very beautiful. I especially liked the circle of lamps around the altar and the decorative white flowers and candles. 

Then we went outside of Rome to go to the banquet. We had problems to get getting there because the restaurant was hidden behind the mountains, it seemed like being lost in a labyrinth, but at least last we could find found it. They were just beginning with a buffet of appetizers in a big garden with a swimming pool. This was just the beginning because then, after the appetizers, we had three main dishes (risotto, ravioli e fetucine), two second dishes (fish and meat) and the dessert. I couldn't eat any more, I felt like a balloon, I was going to explode!!

One difference I saw regarding to compared with Spain it is that the bride and groom were sit seated at one   a table alone by themselves. In Spain, they usually sit with their parents and grandparents. Another thing that I missed a lot was music, in Spain we used to dance until we can´t go on. Anyway, I met nice people there and I had a really good time :) 

I'm curious, how what are weddings like in your country?
