In most cases, weddings were crowded and large-scale events where dozens or even hundreds of people of different statuses and power gathered.
However, although a wedding, especially a noble one, would often have very rich and powerful people in attendance, none of them were the main center of attention.
Everyone knew what weddings were for, and the culmination of each wedding was the engagement of the bride and groom so that they could become husband and wife.
So, although the bride and groom had not yet appeared, everyone realized that the actual wedding had not yet begun.
And... there was not much time left to wait as the sun was heading towards the horizon, it was already evening time, but in summer, darkness came much later than usual.
Step. Step. Step.
There were light, quiet footsteps radiating anticipation before the end of the day.
