Pakistani media reported that six brothers and six sisters, after more than a year of planning, organized a simple collective wedding to avoid “exorbitant costs.”
The event took place in Punjab province, where six brothers married six sisters in a ceremony attended by over 100 guests.
According to reports, the wedding was held without dowry or any extravagant expenses, reflecting a commitment to simplicity.
The brothers reportedly spent more than a year planning the ceremony, waiting for their youngest brother to reach adulthood so that all could marry at the same time.
The grooms stated that they wanted to set an example by showing that Islam emphasizes simplicity in marriage and discourages lavish traditions and displays of wealth.
The eldest brother highlighted their motivation: “We observed that people often sell their land to cover wedding expenses. We wanted to show that marriages can be simple and free from such burdens.”
Notably, the grooms refused to accept any dowry from their brides, further emphasizing the importance of modesty and simplicity.
This collective wedding stands as a powerful example of how traditions rooted in simplicity can challenge societal norms. It offers hope for those burdened by the financial pressures of marriage.
By promoting this simple yet meaningful approach, the families have paved the way for others to adopt practices that prioritize values over materialism, encouraging a cultural shift toward more accessible and humble weddings.
