"A Grand Marriage under the Consulate" - the wedding of Laure Permon and Jean-Andoche Junot
Following up from my last few posts about Laure and Junot's courtship, engagement and wedding, I'm going to take a quick break from translating the Joseph Turquan book to provide a description of the wedding from another historian, Jules Bertaut - Turquan tells the exact same story in his book but it is less detailed, so I'm choosing to upload Bertaut's version instead.
If you can read French then I would highly recommend reading the full article (linked at the end of the post), because what I've translated here is only the main segment.
Always full of vanity, eager to dazzle the city and the court, the young general ordered the trousseau from the best suppliers in vogue: Mlle l'Olive and Mlle Debeuvry, fashionable lingères, were urgently required, as well as the famous Le Roy for the dresses, and the no less famous Mlle Germon for the hats. Foncin mounts the diamonds. Every morning Junot travels around town in a cabriolet and returns in the evening to the Rue Sainte-Croix,* his arms laden with trinkets, drawings, and samples of all kinds collected from Sikes or the Petit Dunkerque, which will be the ornaments of the future residence. He does not forget "his terrible mother-in-law" in this distribution of gifts, nor his brother-in-law for whom he has taken a real affection. Every day, Mme Bernard, the famous boutiquiere of the opera, sends a magnificent wreath of flowers to Laure's home.
Now that the engagement is official, Junot appears daily at the house, and twice rather than once, cheerful, full of spirit, happy to live. He brings the fresh news, the news that no one knows yet: newspaper proofs, army bulletins, private letters that arouse the curiosity of these ladies, that amuse them, and on which they will talk all evening. His position as commander of Paris allowed him to know many things that he confided under the seal of secrecy. Sometimes he is also cautiously silent.
However, as the time of his marriage approached, Junot had his family brought to Paris and introduced them to his fiancée and her parents. They are good people from the provinces, Junot's father, who is about sixty years old, his wife, a little older, and the elder brother, and two married sisters and two uncles, a whole tribe of Burgundians who come to attend the wedding of the great man of the family.
The very evening of their arrival, they were brought to the rue Sainte-Croix. "It was on that day," says Madame Abrantes, "that I was able to appreciate all that was good and perfect in Junot's heart. Since he had come to my mother's house, he had been able to recognize the immense difference which existed in manners, in habits, and especially in education, between my family, which had never lived except in Paris, and his own, which had never left the depths of the province. He loved me too much not to fear finding in me a sign that would have detected a mocking feeling that would have made him unhappy." But Laure, who was a good and very wise girl, did not need to be lectured: she and her mother received the Burgundians with all the desirable grace and kindness, closing their eyes to the little blunders they may commit, showing themselves welcoming and deferential, the young girl quite affectionate for her parents-in-law. For this her fiancé thanked her with great effusiveness.
He will be able to prove his gratitude to her, for now the lingères and the courturiers have finished their work and the bride's basket appears. What splendour! It's a princess's trousseau. From a trunk of pink Naples silk embroidered with black chenille, a quantity of small packages knotted with pink or blue ribbons escapes. Embossed chemises, embroidered by Mlle l'Olive, Indian muslin dressing-gowns, night-camisoles, morning canezous, night-caps, morning bonnets of all colors, of all shapes, all trimmed with valenciennes, malines, or English stitch - it is a collapse of linen of the highest price. In another enormous basket are the cashmere shawls, veils, the trimmings of dresses in needle stitch and in Brussels stitches, black lace, pieces of muslin from India, pieces of velvet or Turkish fabrics that the general brought back from Egypt, the dress for the wedding, "representation dresses", dresses embroidered in silver strips. And then ribbons of all widths, all colors, bags, fans, gloves, perfumes of Fagon, of Riban.
On each side of this basket two "sultans" have been placed. "In the first," she says, "there were two necessities, one containing all that is necessary for the toilette of the teeth and hands, in objects of gold enamelled with black, the other contained everything that a woman uses to work: a thimble, scissors, an awl, all of gold also, and surrounded by fine pearls. In the other "sultan" were the case and a blond tortoiseshell and gold lorgnette with two rows of diamonds. The case contained a very beautiful river of chatons, a pair of earrings also made of chatons, mounted in the shape of a wheel, as was the fashion at the time; six ears of corn and a comb, half pearls and half diamonds, which, owing to the enormous amount of hair I had then, was almost as large as it would be today. In the same case was a square medallion surrounded by fine pearls in which was a portrait of General Junot painted by Isabey. But, in good faith, he was of a size to be tied to a gallery rather than hung around his neck. Oh, it was fashionable... In the same pink "sultan" and next to the case were superb topazes that the general had brought back from Egypt (always the "souvenirs") and whose size was fabulous, multi-layered oriental carnelians and antique engraved stones."
The bride-purse, which it was customary for the bridegroom to offer to his bride, was made of gold chains fastened by a small star enamelled with green; the sum it contained was in notes of the Bank of France - a great novelty at the time - "covered with fifty louis in Venice sequins". For people who had been completely ruined four years ago, this is a pretty nice success...
However, the date of the ceremony was approaching and suddenly there was an unforeseen incident that upset the guests of the rue Sainte-Croix. Junot had a friend of a certain Duquesnoy, who was mayor of the 7th arrondissement, which was then situated in the Saint-Antoine district, and he asked Laure if she did not see any objection to him officiating their civil marriage**. She replied that, as far as she could see, she saw none, that the only trouble was the rather long journey for her mother which she would have to make to return from the quarter of Saint-Antoine to Saint-Louis d'Antin, their local church, which was opposite their home. Junot said nothing, looked a little embarrassed, and when she had gone away, he asked his future mother-in-law if it was really her intention to have a religious marriage celebrated. Mme Permon jumped up. -"What!" she cried. "You ask me if I want to go through the church? Ah, my dear fellow, do you take us for unbelievers, followers of sans-culotte marriages? We are Catholics - like you, for that matter - and we wish to remain so." "However," he dares to advance, "Mademoiselle Laure..." "Well! send for her, and you will see what she will say to you." The young girl was recalled. She seemed stunned when her fiancé confessed to her that when he asked for her hand he did not have the intention of having a religious marriage. She didn't want to hear any more: "Never!" she said, all pale and already trembling, "will I accept only a civil marriage. Be assured that our union will not take place if we do not go through the church." And she ran to lock herself in her room where she had a long sobbing fit.
What an ordeal! Everyone gets involved. Finally, Albert [de Permon] has a discussion of several hours with Junot and returns, triumphant, that he has decided, but that the general wants the religious wedding to take place at midnight. Laure agrees, but will Mme Permon want it? She wants to, she says with a pinched look, but she takes the opportunity to demand that her future son-in-law ask forgiveness from his fiancée for having doubted her feelings in this way. - "Come on! On your knees before her! And you, give him your hand and your cheek to reward him." Stunned, overwhelmed, too, by grief, his countenance upset, poor Junot complies, and, everything seeming to be settled, they end the evening at the theatre and applaud Talma in Orestes.
On October 30, 1800, in the morning, the bride's toilette began. She has a dress of Indian muslin embroidered with dotted and in open stitches with long sleeves. On her head she has a bonnet in Brussels stitch mounted by Mlle Despaux with a small crown of orange blossoms from which a long veil of English stitch starts. At eleven o'clock, the general arrived with his family and his two witnesses, his aide-de-camp, Captain Lallemand, and a painter, M. Bardin. Laure's will be the Comte de Villemanzy, an intimate friend of her father, and M. Laquion de Bois-Crozy. Her tutor, M. Brunetière, will serve as her father***, and they are proud to count in the procession the bride's uncle, Prince Demetrius of Commene, who has come expressly from Munich.
As they leave for the town hall, they see two "forts" and ladies from the Halle cutting through the crowd of curious people and asking to be introduced. They each bring a superb bouquet, a tribute to the commander of the Place de Paris. "We were leaving for the town hall," says Laure, "accompanied by their noisy greetings and to the sound of repeated cries of 'Vive la mariee!'" M. Duquesnoy, the mayor, spared them the boredom of a long speech, limiting himself "to a few well-felt phrases." Then they went home.
When midnight was about to strike, they set off again: in spite of the late hour, the street was still full of people, who applauded loudly the procession on its way to Saint-Louis d'Antin. An hour later the newlyweds reached the house in the Rue de Verneuil.****
*Laure and her mother's residence at the time.
**before the revolution a marriage had to be held in a church to be legitimate, but since the revolution the system in France is that the couple must have a civil marriage in a town hall and then a religious ceremony is optional.
***Laure's father was dead and so she needed another paternal figure to symbolically 'give her away' to her husband.
****Junot's residence at the time.

Hi Ambrose <333 can you talk to me about some Marathi wedding traditions? (Its for very important prongsfoot research 🙏🙏 thank youu)
Ooh yay Marathi weddings! I love them! Let's get started right away!
First things first: Indian weddings are almost festivals in their own right. There is a lot going on during wedding season, and it all condenses down into a very chaotic week that makes you feel like you're stuck in a whirlwind you never want to get out of.
I'm going to go off of my experiences with Big Fat Indian Weddings (which: I've seen many of those, each and every wedding I've been to has had around 2500 guests), so buckle up.
There are many rituals and events in an Indian wedding, and you can pick and choose which events you want, or you can have all of them, it's entirety up to you. There used to be regional traditions to weddings before, but now they are blending together, for example: Sangeet is a typically Punjabi affair when it comes to weddings, but every Maharashtrian celebration I've been to has held a Sangeet.
I'm going to give a sort of overview of all the things that take place and in which order, so here goes:
The Lagnaach Bedior: before any festivities begin, the horoscopes (Patrika) of the bride and groom are matched before any events. The family of the bride and groom get together and call on a family priest who checks their Patrika and details them out, offering advice for any difficulties that they may face in married life.
Then comes the Muhurta Medha; where the families of the bride and groom to be plant a tree as an auspicious beginning.
The wedding season starts with— you guessed it— an engagement ceremony. In Marathi, it is called Sakhar Puda (Sakhar– sugar, puda– packet) or Vangnishchay (verbal agreement). The bride is gifted with packets of sugar, clothing and jewellery, and the groom is given coconut, gold/silver coins, and clothes as well. The sugar signifies a sweet beginning of the marriage. Engagement rings, while not traditionally a Hindu thing, are also exchanged by the bride and groom to be.
Sometimes, a family may choose to have a pre- Sakhar Puda mehendi ceremony, it's not very common. A mehendi ceremony is when women who are invited to the wedding (hint: a lot of women) get together for a day to get their hands stained with mehendi. The bride is the star of the show, and her mehendi usually goes up to her biceps, and even her feet are stained. This is in general a very relaxed setting, with lots of cushions to lounge on and lots of food and refreshments (as is typical of any Indian get together lol food is important). A mehendi is always held before the main ceremony of marriage vows, though.
After the Vangnishchay comes the Muhurta— the priest is called once again, and this time a specific time is fixed for the beginning of the ceremony of vows. And then, the preparations begin in earnest, months before the wedding day.
Five Savashani (a married woman; the Hindi word is Suhasini) are invited by the bride’s mother on an auspicious day. They make turmeric powder and Sandege (pulses and spice powder) in mortar and pestle to be used later in the wedding, and Papad is rolled for eating. The women then hold a Rukhwat by decorating artistically and exhibiting bridal lehengas and sarees, jewellery, kitchen utensils, sweets and all sorts of bridal trousseau as a part of the wedding rituals of Maharashtra.
Next: the Sangeet! Sangeet is held anywhere between two days to a week before the ceremony of vows. There is food, lots of music and dancing to both traditional wedding songs and Bollywood songs, and it's generally a time for people to come together and have as much fun as possible. They're possibly my favourite part of weddings. (They're also not traditionally Maharashtrian, they're Punjabi, but lots of families still do it.)
Sometimes, the pre wedding mehendi is done right alongside the Sangeet, and other times it is done a either the day after Sangeet or after Kelvan (explained below). Again, lots of women come together and draw mehendi designs on their hands. Bridal mehendi goes all the way up to the biceps, and the feet are also decorated. It's very fun.
After the Sangeet comes the Kelvan, where the parents of the bride and groom to be invite each other's family for a meal. Gifts are given and aarti-puja for the Kuldevta (family deities) is performed, and in general it is a very simple yet beautiful affair. This is typically done two or three days before the wedding. The Kelvan ceremony invite also includes close family and relatives from both sides. The idea behind the ritual is to show respect and know each other better.
The day before— or sometimes the morning of, depending on the auspicious time— the ceremony of wedding vows, a Halad Chadawat is held. The bride and groom's respective families rub turmeric powder and water into their skin with the help of freshly picked mango leaves. It's a playful event, with lots of laughter and pranks. Halad (turmeric) is used for cleansing and purifying one's body before entering into a holy matrimony. It symbolizes the happy start of a new life together, and is said to protect the couple from any bad omens that may harm them before the wedding.
Now comes the actual wedding. This one's a doozy muahaha!
The day begins with a Puja of the Lord Ganpati, who is always honoured and worshipped at the beginning of any venture (there is a myth behind this, if you want to know). After the Ganpatidev Puja, the Kuldevta is also invoked to bless the couple.
The groom enters the venue of the wedding with a procession on the back of a horse, sometimes with a sword and scabbard strapped to his waist. The Seemant Puja is performed. The bride's mother washes the groom's feet and gifts are given to the groom's family by the bride's family.
The bride, wearing either a red or a yellow wedding Shalu (a type of saree) and with a Mundavalya (a string of pearls or flowers) tied across her forehead, performs the Gaurihar Puja with her parents. Rice is placed on the idol’s head as mantras and shlokas are recited. Prayers to the Goddess Parvati for a happy and prosperous married life are said.
The Antarpat ritual is the main one. A silk shawl is hung between the bride and groom while the Brahmin chants the mantras.
After the Antarpat comes the Sankalp, where the silk shawl is removed after the mantras are finished. The guests showers the newly married couple with Akshata (unbroken rice grains) to bless them with a happy marriage.
The Kanyadaan follows: here, the father of the bride gives her hand to the groom, who ties a mangalsutra around her neck and applies sindoor (red powder) to her forehead. The bride presses chandan (sandalwood) to the groom's forehead in return.
For the Saptapadi, the couple takes seven rounds around the holy fire. The bride is required to touch seven betel nuts placed on top of small mounds of rice with her right foot. Once the seven rounds are done, she places her foot on a grindstone, while the groom holds her hand or foot, symbolizing that she needs to be strong and he will always support her.
The bride’s father along with the couple pray to god for blessings in the Karmasamaapti (meaning "end of the act")
A grand feast fit for royalty follows the wedding ceremony, and there is again a lot of dancing and music. A separate Reception is also held, which is just another party so that the bride and groom— who had been busy with the wedding itself— can mingle with everyone who had attended.
.
.
And this is it! That's your traditional wedding! It's a lot of fun, and i absolutely love attending functions like these!
I hope you got what information you wanted, and my asks are always open for any questions anyone may have. Go ahead, people, don't be shy! If anything is missing or I've gotten something wrong and you notice it, please go ahead and correct me or add on, it'll be much appreciated.

The History of Gold Temple Jewellery Designs
Gold temple jewellery designs trace their origins to the Chola and Pandya dynasties in South India. Artisans of this era crafted exquisite jewellery for temple idols, using gold and gemstones to create intricate patterns that symbolized divinity and prosperity. These designs often depicted gods, goddesses, and motifs like peacocks, flowers, and mythical creatures.
Over time, these sacred adornments transitioned from temple idols to bridal trousseaus and ceremonial wear, becoming a timeless treasure passed down through generations. Today, these designs are not only a part of Indian weddings but also a popular choice among jewellery enthusiasts shopping for a necklace set online in India.
Craftsmanship: The Soul of Temple Jewellery
The artistry of gold temple jewellery designs lies in their meticulous craftsmanship. Skilled artisans invest hours to create each piece, ensuring every detail reflects precision and devotion.
Material and Techniques: Temple jewellery is traditionally crafted using high-quality gold, often in 22-karat purity. Techniques such as repoussé (hammering metal into intricate designs) and filigree (delicate wirework) are used to add depth and texture.
Gemstone Embellishments: Rubies, emeralds, and uncut diamonds often embellish these designs, adding vibrant hues and enhancing their regal appeal.
Motifs and Themes: Common motifs include gods like Lakshmi, Saraswati, and Ganesha, along with intricate carvings of temples, bells, and lotuses. These elements embody spirituality and cultural significance, making gold temple jewellery designs unique and meaningful.

Gold temple jewellery designs come in various styles, each catering to different occasions and preferences. If you're planning to shop for a necklace set online in India, understanding these styles can help you find the perfect match.
Temple Necklace Sets: Featuring elaborate pendants and chains adorned with deity motifs, temple necklace sets are perfect for weddings and festive occasions. Their grandeur complements traditional sarees and lehengas beautifully.
Chokers: Temple chokers are shorter necklaces with intricate detailing, often embellished with gemstones. They sit snugly around the neck and pair well with both ethnic and fusion outfits.
Earrings: Jhumkas, chandbalis, and studs featuring temple-inspired designs are popular choices. These earrings exude charm and grace, making them a versatile accessory.
Bangles and Bracelets: Gold temple jewellery designs extend to bangles and bracelets, which often feature carved deity motifs and floral patterns. They add a touch of tradition to any ensemble.
Vankis and Armlets: Worn on the upper arm, vankis or armlets are adorned with intricate patterns, making them a statement piece for brides and classical dancers.
Why Gold Temple Jewellery Designs Are Timeless
The enduring appeal of gold temple jewellery designs lies in their versatility and cultural significance.
Cultural Connection: These designs celebrate Indian heritage and spirituality, making them a meaningful addition to any jewellery collection.
Versatile Style: Whether paired with traditional attire or styled with contemporary outfits, gold temple jewellery designs seamlessly blend with various looks.
Investment Value: Crafted with high-purity gold, these pieces retain their value over time, making them a worthwhile investment.
Symbolism: The divine motifs and themes add a layer of spirituality and positivity, making these pieces cherished for their deeper meaning.
How to Choose the Perfect Temple Jewellery
When exploring gold temple jewellery designs or shopping for a necklace set online in India, consider these factors:

Design Preferences: Look for designs that resonate with your style and cultural preferences, whether you prefer elaborate motifs or minimalistic patterns.
Customization Options: Some jewellers offer customization, allowing you to create a piece that reflects your unique taste.

Online Shopping

Match Your Outfit: Pair elaborate designs with traditional silk sarees or lehengas for weddings. For a fusion look, style a temple choker with a flowy maxi dress or an indo-western outfit.
Balance Accessories: If your necklace is intricate, opt for simpler earrings and vice versa to avoid an overwhelming look.
Layering: Experiment with layering different lengths of necklaces for a regal appearance.
Occasion-Specific Styling: Choose lighter designs for casual occasions and heavier pieces for weddings and festivals.
Maintaining Your Temple Jewellery

The Importance & History of Handloom in India - Reviving the Heritage of Khadi and Handloom through Sustainable Fashion
FROM LOOM TO LIBERATION: As we celebrate India’s 78th Independence Day, Nete pays an ode to the evergreen allure of handloom in India.
Hello folks, and happy India’s Independence Day! As promised, I’m back. This time, I’m here to talk about a piece of our rich heritage and the journey of freedom—khadi and handloom. Yesterday, while going through one of those wardrobe-decluttering days, I stumbled upon one of my most favourite handloom clothing that I have ever owned. One that was gifted to me. It was a beautiful, soft white Jamdani shirt with intricate weaves, and it took me down memory lane.
I realised I don’t see clothes as just pieces of garments; I see them as stories. That is one of the biggest reasons I started Nete a decade ago. I wanted to handpick designers whose clothes have a story to tell. And when it comes to stories, what can be a better fit than handloom weaving? The OG sustainable style of weaving that creates fabrics that have been, over millennia, celebrated for their quality, authenticity, and the stories they carry from the hands that weave them.
History of Handloom
Indian handloom has been a cherished craft for centuries, with roots tracing back to the Indus Valley Civilization (circa 3000 BCE), where cotton was first cultivated and woven into cloth. By 1750, India was the world's largest cotton textile producer, known for the quality and craftsmanship of its textiles. With the arrival of the British East India Company in the early 17th century, and the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, British factories began churning cotton cloth more quickly and cheaply than our traditional hand weavers could manage, eventually replacing handloom fabric for making clothes. But, drumrolls here, as this also became a cornerstone of the Indian indictment of the Raj. Mahatma Gandhi chose Khadi, a humble handspun and handwoven fabric, as his non-violent tool to advance the cause of India’s freedom. And Khadi became a revolutionary emblem of the political fight for Indian independence.
Today, we continue to celebrate handloom as a symbol of sustainability and cultural heritage. From big designers to small independent brands, the sustainable weaving style is being rewoven with contemporary threads, making handloom a part of everyday clothing, occasion wear, and wedding trousseaus.

These motifs are believed to bring good fortune, protection, and prosperity to the wearer.
Temple Jewelry: One of the most revered styles of gold vanki in India is the temple jewelry vanki.

These vankis often feature intricate carvings, gemstones, and a rich finish that exudes a regal charm.
