Explanation:
The questions represent the pressure to which a bride puts down when her wedding day has arrived. Thus, the author is trying to make us reflect a little thorugh this lines on what the bride goes through when her wedding day has arrived; guests, litting lamps, baskets for the evening service, etc... mean, just a little of what needs to be done in a wedding and most of the time by brides.
It is a tool often used by writters to ask a question directly to the character that they want the audience to reflect on and that they want the reader to be more empathic. In this case by asking these questions to the bride he is trying to make the reader reflect on everything that she has to do.
