What makes Moldovan weddings so special?

<p>I moved to Moldova and married my dream guy. He is Moldovan, I&rsquo;m Estonian. On that special day, we signed the paper and had dinner with his parents. And that&rsquo;s it! I didn&rsquo;t think much of it. Now that I have lived in Moldova for a few years, I have realized that weddings are a huge deal. But I couldn&rsquo;t understand why. Why would anyone spend a year or even two of their lives organizing one party?</p> <p>I&#39;m a journalist, and when my colleagues from Estonia came over, I took them to a wedding ceremony. We decided to find out why the celebration of love has to be so extravagant.</p> <p>My friend Alex is an MC, a master of ceremonies. His summers are full of weddings and christenings and all kinds of parties. I asked him to take us with him one evening.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/journo-birds/what-makes-moldovan-weddings-so-special-b154d0cb002"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
