“Because the wedding ceremony lasts for three days, the bride will change three different outfits. Beforehand, during the cleansing and beauty treatments, the brides have to wear traditional green dresses; the next day, as they attend the hair dressers, they wear a red dress with gold strings. Every time they are in public, they need to wear different gold veils and gold jewelry. They have to wear as many as possible (must be really heavy!), actually, they have to wear every single piece of gold jewelry they possess. On their wedding day, the brides from Yemen usually wear gold and white veils and a marvelous and spectacular headpiece.”
