Albanian Wedding Tradition


The wedding day is a memorable day in almost every culture. But for centuries it has had a special place in Albanians life. There are some core events that compose the whole Wedding party.
Weddings last one week
Traditional Albanian weddings are rather epic – they begin seven days before the ceremony. Especially at the home of the groom the wedding starts one week before. The guests sing songs and dance characteristic dancing. It is like a big party that involves the whole village, or neighborhood. The wedding party of the brides usually is held on Wednesday or on Saturday. Whereas the groom’s wedding ceremony, one day after, on Thursday or on Sunday.

  1. Informative post about Albanian wedding tradition. Thanks a lot for this post. We are Mexican and will have destination ceremony but in Mexican style. So we have been looking for some nice wedding venues in LA or SF that offer affordable services for Mexican styled ceremonies.
