These floral garlands are always standard in all weddings in South Asia, also worn by Christians too. Srilanka has 2 languages. They are Sinhalese and Tamil and for a long time the Tamils were suppressed by the Sinhalese and there were a Tamil faction called LTTE that wanted a separate state for the Tamils. In Tamilnadu, where I am from, a lot of Sinhalese and Tamils escaped to our country avoiding the bloodshed in their own country.
What a treat for you to see this wedding.
You have the best luck while on a trip. What was the chance a wedding would be happening at the same time you were there. The wedding clothes are so colorful and the flower leis are stunning and I bet they smelled good. Look at the henna pattern on her arms. I read a book about the artists who do the henna on brides. It takes years to master it. Wonderful LO!!!
