There are three main events in a traditional Indian Wedding that last over a period of three days, first is the Mehendi which is the Henna ceremony. Only close female relatives and friends attend this part of the wedding where colourful and intricate patterns are drawn on the Bride’s hands and feet. The following day is for the Sangeet which is the time for all the music and entertainment and enjoying food together.
The third day is the wedding ceremony itself; the groom arrives at the venue and is welcomed by the bride’s family; this is when they exchange flower garlands. The priest conducts the wedding under a Mandap, (Canopy) with four pillars. After the chanting and religious ceremony is completed, the couple walk around a central fire and promise to support each other for life.
