You chose the nice, interesting idea of paragraph, used many good examples. I've known a lot of new about the indian wedding.
Although would you mind if I give you a couple suggestions:
- we had to write it like a story, so make topic and concluding sentences;
- use comparisons and comparative adjectives (for ex. p.127 and p.141 of "Blueprints")
Good luck!
Topic/Concluding:
You need a topic sentence that explains your topic and tells that you are going to talk about the similarities and differences of the topic. You also need a concluding sentence.
Supporting Ideas:
You should separate the paragraph with transitions instead of headings that say "similarites:"
Very clear ideas. You could explain a little more about similarities.
Transitions/Vocabulary:
In both traditions (no comma) they make promises..
Try using p. 127 transitions to connect your ideas.
Grammar/Comparitives:
You need two comparitives.
God (capitalized)
wear (not used to wear)
are held (not used to be held) these mean that it happened in the past.
