Question

Weddings are grand affairs. Normally, it only occurs once in a lifetime. It brings about a bondage between a man and a woman. Recently I attended the wedding of my classmate’s sister. It was performed in a community centre auditorium. The auditorium was converted into a fairyland.
At the reception she listed all the bridal party. Then, she had a picture of them on a BIG standing poster with message of honour adressing us, the audiences. Also, she wrote how she met her husband and a little history about them. It was cool! That was different.
The dresses were RED and BLACK! Groom’s dress had RED on back to match the bride’s dress. REAL PRETTY! She had hanging roses coming down just over the throne that they are sitting in.
At each place setting- she put a menu which listed all foods you were going to eat!The menu was in red! And at table- she crumbled up red rose petals in middle of table with hurricane lamp with candle in middle which person with closet birthday got to keep!
She had alot of different and unique ideas that I did not see at other weddings! It was fun! She had a cool DJ that gave out mardi gras necklaces and those glow -in -the dark-bracelets for the kids. We are Italian and they played Italian music too.He got everyone on the dance floor to do fun dances. It was a fun wedding.

What is mean by :hurricane lamp with candle in middle which person with closet birthday got to keep!

Khoff · Accepted Answer

I'm not sure which part of the sentence you are asking about, so I'll answer about both parts.

Here are some examples of hurricane lamps with candles in them:

Often at a wedding, one person at each table is chosen to take home the centerpiece. Sometimes it would be whoever finds a special note under their plate. In this case, the person whose birthday was closest to the date of the wedding was selected to keep the centerpiece. (A centerpiece is a decoration in the middle of the table -- usually flowers, but, in this case, a hurricane lamp with a candle in it.)

oo.I got it. Thank you.

But does the essay is free from any errors? can somebody note me?

Khoff · Answer

The essay has several errors.  Where did you find it?

Anonymous · Answer

Indeed it does have several error and the worst one is the use of the word "bondage". This is generally a word to be avoided unless you have a full understanding of both its meanings.

But you can at least make an effort: we learn by doing, not by having others do for us.

Wedding is a grand affair. Normally, it only occurs once in a lifetime. It brings about a vow/relationship between a man and a woman. Recently I attended the wedding of my classmate’s sister. It was performed in a community centre auditorium. The auditorium was transformed into a fairyland.

At the reception she listed all the bridal party. Then, she had a picture of them on a big standing poster with messages addressing us, the audience. Also, she wrote how she met her husband and a little history about them. It was cool! It was different.
The wedding theme was red and black! The groom was handsome in his black suit with red tie, to match the bride’s red gown. Both of them walked along the red carpet aisle heading to the stage. She had hanging roses coming down just over the throne that they were sitting in.

At each audience’s table,she put a menu which listed all food you were going to eat!The menu was in red! As the centerpiece, she put a hurricane lamp with candle in it, crumbled by roses’ petal, is to be kept by those with closest birthday to the special day.

She had alot of different and unique ideas that I did not see at other weddings! It was fun!

Those in red mean I have made correction or adjustment (adding my idea), but those still underline, I don’t know what is wrong with it.

Here are the justifications for my correction that I can think of;
Weddings –what is wrong, does plural make sense here?
Audiences- audience (this is collective nouns, so only have its plural form, right?)
all foods– all food (uncountable noun, right?)
