TV Personality, Zizo Beda and Spokesperson for the Department of Home Affairs, Mayihlome Tshwete tied the knot, in traditional Xhosa style, earlier today (12 December 2015). The traditional wedding was held at Mayihlome’s home in King Williams Town. The ceremony was attended by high profile guests including Home Affairs Minister, Malusi Gigaba, Water Affairs Minister Nomvula Mokonyane, Shaka Sisulu and Khaya Dlanga.
Yesterday (11 December 2015), the couple had a white wedding in East London. They exchanged vows at St. Saviours Anglican Church, before heading to the Gonubie Manore wedding venue for the reception.
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Tshwete.

I wonder why almost all cultures hide a woman’s face for the wedding ceremony.

I’m not sure about other cultures, but in Zulu culture (I’m Zulu by the way), it’s a way of showing respect to her new family and the ancestors of her new family.

Thank you for your answer. I am so glad that you are running this blog. I am so tired of Africa being treated as a one culture. I am learning so much from you.
