    Default Wedding with the Bulgarians who profess Islam - Pomaks.

    Pomaks (Bulgarians - Muslims or Bulgarians - Mohammedans) are a population whose mother tongue is Bulgarian but profess Muslim religion. They live on the Balkan Peninsula - in Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, the Republic of Macedonia, Albania and Kosovo. The Pomaks have Bulgarian, Pomak, Turkish, Macedonian and Albanian consciousness. They do not represent a single community and do not share a common name, do not speak a single dialect, but use different local speeches, varying by region of residence. Different local exterior designations are used in the various Balkan countries and in the different regions - Ahrens, Apovtsi, Babechans, Bogantsi, Gadgels, Gorani, Dilsos, Djupans, Marvats, Pagans, Poturnaks, Ruptci, Torbechs, Chechens or Chechilas and other. Although Pomaks live in all Balkan countries, there are a number of similarities in traditional customs and holidays in all groups. One of them is about the Pomak wedding, which is very typical and applies only to them. The observance to write, draws the bride is still observed today throughout the Balkan Peninsula, though more and more often weddings are conducted in a modern way. In some places, he is still alive and managing to live alongside the modern world.

    They are Bulgarians, but not Christians. We do not distinguish between them and us Christians. We love and respect, they are extremely hardworking, hospitable and kindhearted people

Tattooing is also part of this ancient tradition that had protective functions and wishes. The white face is a symbol of purity and innocence. Yes, it is like a mask to hide from bad eyes and protect the bride. Today, this function performs the wedding veil
