One of our wedding guests was a Jain. He was the son of a business

Thanksgiving and she went to great efforts to find things for him to eat
that fit with their very restrictive diet.  Despite their very strict
prohibition on alcohol his cultural taboo on booze didn't stop him from
enjoying enough booze to get absolutely pissed at the reception.

The poor guy had to make an emergency trip back to India. He had had a
telephone call to tell him that his mother was on her death bed. As it
turned out, the mother was fine. It was a ruse to get him back home to
get married to the wife they had arranged for him to marry.
