Jajce wedding jags





Caravans of cars bedecked in ribbons, flowers and sometimes Croatian flags weave through the streets of Jajce filled with raucous and well-dressed people honking their horns, downing beer and laughing. We counted 38 cars in one wedding caravan; Miranda's aunt said she frequently counts 60 and up to 100 cars in the weekend processions. Many Bosnians in the diaspora come back home to marry and put on a grand show.
