Honeymoon Quote by Ora-Jay Eash
““there is no such thing as a honeymoon; the next day we got to wash dishes from the evening before! The custom is that the nâvâ huckers (which means “side sitters”) help with the dishes and getting things back in order. We chose two couples as nâvâ huckers, whose role is similar to that of bridesmaids and groomsmen. They sat on either side of us during the meals and also during the wedding ceremony.””
