This video is when my mother Eileen Smith of Colchester married Leon Petulengro. They were divorced after 2 years. Neither of them were real gypsies. Father Xavier P was a friend of my grandfathers. His real name was Walter Lloyd-Smith.
@@richardboswell9306 Us Romanichal Gypsies are legally Egyptian/Gypsies in Scots and English Law, because that's how our ancestors first presented themselves as in England and Scotland in the early 1500s. x
They all headed out to the fields to do the true Romany wedding and do 'the BARBARIC Romany rites', that is an example of British reporting, prejudice and blatant racism.
The father of the bride (my mother Eileen Margaret Smith) from Colchester was my grandfather Joseph John Smith. My grandparents were not at the wedding. I have seen my mother’s cousin Edna among the onlookers.
The Romany traditions and ceremonies are not much different than handfasting and jumping the broom/fire. It was almost a perfect wedding (too bad about the priest/church).
The term "Gypsy" is disrespectful and wrong. They were treated horribly and during WWII 600,000 we killed in Concentration Camps. The proper term is Rom.

This is real nice stuff.
Very interesting.

Hello! That sounds very interesting. Why were they pretending to be Roma? I’d really love to learn about them!!
I did wonder
@@dominichenderson9549
I could write a book about it.
But another relative of the Petulengro family who lived in Spain asked me not to.
Far classier dressage and way than modern gypsies weddings.
I have never seen this before and its beautiful.
Not dress like this for gadji anyway this is not real and these are not romani just actors

@rikboswell my nanna was a Lee and her Grandad was Randal Lee brother of Rainie who married a Boswell.
Er, this is nonsense, right? These are actors. My ancestors were Romani, Boswells. The father of bride! More like her younger brother ...

Nice movie 😂😂😂😂 lol ...... but its fake. Romani people don't do this . ❤from Indian 🇮🇳 living in Europe
You're Indian, not Romani
Yes, I am not Romani. I am Swedish but North Indian origin. Romani's don't cut their finger and mix their blood 😂😂😂 that's why I said it's fake.
