Experience India through its wedding celebration

The amazing diversity and strong allegiance to family seen in every realm of Indian life is also reflected in Indian marriages. In Indian culture, marriage symbolizes not just the sacred union of two individuals, but of the coming together of two families as well. Indians believe that once married the couple is bound with each other for seven birth cycles. Such is the depth and intensity of their faith in the institution of marriage.

Indian weddings are packed with grandeur, traditions, grace, colors, music, dance, non-stop feast and carnival-type celebration. A traditional Indian wedding lasts an average of three days. The customs are built around pre-wedding celebrations knowns as Sangeet – where bride’s family and friends sing and dance on traditional music. Next is the main wedding ceremony, where Groom arrives with a grand procession called Baaraat, followed by elaborate wedding rituals; finally it’s the post-wedding event called Vidaai, where the bride leaves her maternal house to join her husband.
