Waiting for the bride and groom

A group of young people dressed in military clothing wait in one of the streets near the church in Huaricolca (Tarma) for the marriage ceremony to end in order to accompany the newlyweds leaving the church. It is unusual to see this type of accompaniment in places far from the capital.
