Really it's very sensitive issue...

I m a vegetarian and a south Indian ... One fortunate thing here is we generally will not keep non veg in the marriages ... So any marriage no non veg so it's not a big problem...

But being a veggie I may not instantly agree for a non veg in a marriage... But to be frank it's our tradition and similarly it's even other person tradition to have non veg in their marriage the one should allow that. .

It's actually 50-50 game...

One cannot accept whole heartedly as the family may not accept properly. But one even should think about other person ...

Soo.. I wanted to see how CVs show this food issue...

P.s. my view is let them put veg in marriage and have a Bengal reception separately and provide them non veg mast wala... ( I know that all non veggies may dis agree or may get angry on this but this is even one solution.)

If everyone agrees then having non veg in marriage is not at all a prob...

i had thought earlier it would be a light issue but it seems to have snowballed into something major and now with buaji coming even more...even i hope some solution comes out instead of drama at the reception...funny she asks God forgiveness for food but has the audacity to cheat and get away with that ...

and another thing is that lehenga...do bengali girls wear lehenga for pheras...sorry for my ignorance but the way they highlighted that part..it seems ishwari is again going to be disappointed...

ya its a sensitive issue(usually girl's parents do as Boy's side want) in general also all non-veg eaters will happily eat veg no bid deal there, but veg people cannot eat non-veg ,Instead of 2 counters better they have two different food serving areas as some people don't like even the smell also ..

Same here I even got a doubt why they highlighted that lehenga scene...

And I did find her forgiveness very funny

Yupp... Separate area may work but let's see.

Separate area for veg and non veg counters is the best idea.

No Bengali girl's traditional attire for wedding is banarasi saree but aajkal modern age me kuch ladkiya jinko shauk hai lehenga pehenne ka wo pehen leti hai jaisa meri ek bhabhi ne pehna tha recently apni wedding pe
and the way RR and Ishwari are saying that hum pooja paath wale log and all is really humiliating for us bengalis hum bhi pooja paath karte hai bhai

I completely agree with you here .

It's not just about the food ...certain section of the society believes in not eating even onion garlic on weddings or any pooja .I know many communities who eat non veg but avoid non veg on wedding day ,they have separate day for serving non veg food .

It's not a out right or wrong or High or low caste ...it's about belief and one should respect other people's belief rather than questioning other belief .

This problem is very common esp when one is veg and the other is non veg.

If the wedding is in temple - goes without saying no non veg menu only by default.

If its some other venue - both sides can compromise and have two different sections.

You made a very sensible post. Yes, I understand that vegetarian people have difficulties with non-veg vegetarian food. But like I kept repeating, instead of making fun of other cultures or putting down people, why not hire two banquet rooms in Hyatt or Taj and serve Vegetarian in one and Non-vegetarian in another? Money is not a concern for Dev.

People will go there only to eat. They will hardly spend their entire time there. Rest of the time they will be with the bride and groom. Serve vegetarian starters and drink where the bride and groom are standing.

That way vegetarians won't even have to sniff Non-vegetarian food. Is this necessary to do one extreme or another?

Same with wedding style. Why only Bengali wedding? Do both styles, one after the another. Do aashirwad along with Mehendi and Sangeet. Enjoy all functions of inter-cultural marriage.

That's how you show acceptance and respect for other cultures.
