A wedding convoy is a joyful procession of decorated vehicles that forms during the bride pickup or on the way to the wedding venue, accompanied by honking horns and celebration. In Turkish culture, it is an important part of the bride-taking tradition and usually begins with the groom’s family going to the bride’s home.
Usage Examples and Features:
Bride Pickup: After the bride leaves the hairdresser, she is taken from her home by the groom’s side in a convoy.
Traditional Decorations: Towels or ribbons are tied to car mirrors to indicate that it is part of a wedding convoy.
Horns and Celebration: Participants honk their horns to announce and celebrate the marriage.
