	Description:	HERE COMES THE BRIDE Wedding customs from around the World are recreated by actors and a cartoon. A look at wedding customs from across the globe. Various shots of children having a mock wedding in a garden. They are wearing adult clothes so their outfits are way too big on them. The boy gives the girl a quick kiss. Shot of a cute toddler girl holding up a doll. M/S of a real bride and groom getting into a chauffeur driven car. Animated map of the world with an arrow pointing to Saxony, Germany. M/S procession of men and women in traditional costumes. The bride and groom are carried on chairs into the house. CU of giggly bridesmaid wearing a head-dress made of fruit. These wedding sequences from India, Borneo, China, Africa, Tunisia and Croatia are recreated by actors on stage sets. Same actors play more than one part. Map with an arrow pointing to India.

The wife appears holding the rolling pin. The caption out of her mouth reads "Old Spanish Custom".
