JEDDAH: Marriage etiquette has changed over the generations and of all the headline-grabbing proposals from around the world, TRT reporter Yusuf Akyön may have taken the cake when he popped the question to his girlfriend this week.
Every culture has its own unique marriage traditions — many Muslims, for instance, prefer to propose to their significant others in the presence of family.
