AEPA --A new trend in marriage celebrations.

My introduction to AEPA-- Slowly the trends in family gatherings is changing. Now a days i had a strong feeling that i am getting introduced to AEPA ---All Engineers Parents Association.--- This is the trend that is catching up now a days on a large scale and the most happening event is attending these AEPA marriages, These families are basically more of a nuclear set up with one child or two both of them have done Engineering stream Graduations and their parents in turn have to meet up another Engineers parents. So these trends of marriages are unique and are considered to be very innovative, coming from a typical brahminical background which always insisits that we have to perform and perform and perform without any reservations. The parents are all set to marry their children to another Engineering graduate thus ignoring the other eligible bachelors of other streams of education. There are many things that happen at these events, you will have preference to eat or talk or sit besides these parents only if you are aware of latest happenings in jobs, if you use only the latest gadget that is available else you are streamlined to be a average gullible citizen, the typical words that float around in discussion is about facebook accounts, whatsup, and all other relevant social networking apps. your number is shared only if you have one of them else you are a tribe in these marriages. But thanks to the availability of latest information about these marriages and events related to these marriages the trends in the selection of ritual garlands, makeup and dress etc. All are like a trendsetter in marriages, There are different in many ways, some prefer to go the traditional way, some of them opt for simpler way. However, the marriages will have a telecast in the form of youtube or any other network settings that majority of the viewers or relatives prefer to use or glue to their laptops or tablets or any other device. The trends in marriages especially among the techies are changing like a click of a mouse. Your dinner is arranged with different menus and more than half of it goes waste into the drain. I had a great and innovative experience in being a guest at these marriages, truly, marriages are made in heaven either and it is a fortune to all of them who are married and certainly the way these nuclear set up families are changing these rituals into a new paradigm shift. Altogether a great Experience and however i cannot forget to call it AEPA.....So many of you can start calling these typical set of marriages as AEPA.
