In general, Turkmens are adherents of traditions in arranging celebrations, especially such significant ones as a wedding. Marriage rites absorbed both religious beliefs and ancient folk traditions, the news site wrote, adding that "over time, some ancient traditions and rules went into oblivion, as irrelevant or obsolete, modern ones came in their place". "Antiquity is intricately combined with new trends, giving rise to a colorful and interesting spectacle - a Turkmen wedding," it pointed out.
