The weather effectively prevented us from organizing a traditional wedding parade. However, the rain did not discourage the guests from the wedding concert of the ‘Zbójnicek’ band! The fun showing a traditional highlander wedding attracted large audience. Thanks to our guests from Ząb, all those gathered could learn about the wedding customs of the local highlanders.
