Many wedding customs are common among Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and Muslims. They combine l

ocal, religious and family traditions. The period of Hindu marriage ceremonies dates from the ap

plication (lagan) of tilak. When the marriage has been agreed upon, the father of the bridegroom

visits the father of the bride. The day before the expected arrival of the marriage procession, lavi

sh preparations are done by the family to receive the groom (shaadi ki tayaari) in beautiful and d

ecorated venues, typically farmhouses or hotel halls, where a sacrificial fireplace called marhwa

is built.




Marriages in India are filled with ritual and celebration that continue for several days. Generally

anywhere between 100 to 10,000 people attend. Often, many of the attendees are unknown to th

e bride and groom themselves. Though most Indian marriages are arranged, some couples in urb

an areas consummate "love marriages", in which the partners decide to marry each other without

family involvement or assistance. The traditional Indian wedding is about two families being br

ought together socially, with as much emphasis placed on the families coming closer as the marr

ied couple.




Brides decorate themselves with gold and diamond jewellery, apply mehndi to colour hands and fee

t, and undergo various bridal rituals, including wearing bridal lehenga or saree.

Bridegrooms typically wear a [sherwani] dress or a designer suit. To complete the marriage, the bri

de and groom walk in a circle (phera) around the sacrificial fire.

Vidaai is when the bride is formally sent to the groom’s household. Many songs have immortalized

this moment when the bride leaves her ‘babul ka ghar’ or father’s house.According to Hindu religiou

s texts, Brahma created man from the right shoulder and woman from his left shoulder. A woman is r

eferred to as Vamangi or one who is on the left side. Throughout the marriage ceremony the bride sits

on the right side of the groom. That is the place for strangers and acquaintances. Only after the Saptp

adi, when the bride and groom have exchanged marital vows, is the wife seated on the left side of the

man. An example of the complexity of an Indian wedding can be seen from the various phases of a w

edding in North India.





The following events take place in a typical Eastern Uttar Pradesh Hindu marriage:The bride and gro

om are told about their duties and responsibilities in married life by the priest. These vows direct the

couple to a positive path of action. They help in promoting marital happiness for a lifetime.

Kanyadaan During kanyadaan, the bride’s parents give their daughter away in marriage. The groo

m makes three promises – to be just (dharma), earn sufficiently to support his family (artha), and love

his wife (kama). He repeats these vows thrice in the presence of Agni (the sacred fire) and all who are

gathered there.





Bariksha Bariksha is when the bride's parents have informally shown intentions that they want a p

articular groom, and the groom and his family have agreed. Reneging at the end of this stage is frown

ed upon but is acceptable. Once the wedding has been accepted by both sides, the bride's family does

Badcheka/Bariksha of the groom. This is when the bride's father and brothers go to the groom's side

with sweets (including a coconut) and some pooja items like rice and turmeric. This ceremony is a to

ken gesture to confirm the alliance and signifies that the groom is now "taken" and can no longer loo

k for other prospective brides.

Mehndi or Henna is a paste that is bought in a cone shaped tube and is made into designs for men an

d women. Mehndi in Indian tradition is typically applied during special Hindu weddings.
