Bride Banned from Showing Her Face - chairman - 05-22-2013
Thousands of Hasidic Jews dressed in black gathered in Jerusalem Tuesday to celebrate the wedding of their future leader, Shalom Rokeach and—what they could see of—his beautiful, veiled bride. Keeping with Ultra Orthodox Jewish tradition, 19-year-old Hannah Batya Penet was banned from showing her face throughout the entire ceremony. Behind her lace and crystal encrusted veil, onlookers could see nothing but tiny diamond earrings. Penet's new husband, the grandson of the Chief Rabbi of Belz, will eventually lead the entire Jewish sect.

Usually is wedding the brides face is covered.
But if it's a common in that culture then it's normal. I never knew and I find it very interesting.
I wonder if she still does her makeup, as a woman I know whether my face is covered or not, the same rule applies, my face is looking gorgeous and my hair. Every woman should look beautiful for their wedding.

divorce is NOT a certainty in every marriage!
