The regional customs, family rituals, degree of conservativeness or liberalness, and level of affluence or poverty directly affect Azerbaijani weddings and the events leading up to and following the occasion. Some weddings are arranged, others are somewhat arranged, while there are those marriages where the spouses choose each other without much family interference (although this is not exactly the norm).
Но есть также и такие браки, где супруги выбирают друг друга без вмешательства со стороны семей (хотя это далеко не всегда так).
