Rituals
Engagement (Sagai)
An engagement or betrothal is the period of time between a marriage proposal and the marriage itself (which is typically but not always commenced with a wedding). During this period, a couple is said to be fiancés (from the French), betrothed, intended, affianced, engaged to be married, or simply engaged. Future brides and grooms may be called fiancée (feminine) or fiancé (masculine), the betrothed, a wife-to-be or husband-to-be, respectively. The duration of the courtship varies vastly, and is largely dependent on cultural norms or upon the agreement of the parties involved.
Haldi (Pithi)
The ‘Haldi Ceremony’ is a ritual holy bath also known as ‘Pithi Ceremony’ , which is one of the pre-wedding ceremonies in India. Turmeric (Haldi), oil and water are applied to both the bride and groom by married women on the morning of the wedding. The mixture is believed to bless the couple before the wedding.
Sangeet
The word “Sangeet “ means music, but when it is used as a term to describe a celebratory event during an Indian wedding it translates to Music Night or Musical party. This musical night is a celebration of the union of not only the couple but the bonding of both families. It is here that both sides bring down their barriers and mingle in a fun environment. It is a celebration that can be as lavish or as toned down as the families can afford. It’s usually held a day before the wedding. It may be held in a huge hotel room to accommodate all wedding guests, or it may be a small affair at the bride’s home. In some events men and women get separated due to their interests, for example men –booze, women- henna, younsters-dance. But most of the sangeet parties are huge and loud and every bit like a reception but super fun.
Mehandi
‘Mehandi’ represents the bond of Matrimony and is therefore, considered a Shagun.
It signifies the love and affection between the couple and their families. It is said & believed here in ‘Rajasthan’ that the darkness of the Mehandi’s colour on brides hands represents the deep love between the wouwould-be-couple💝
Baraat
Baraat is a groom’s wedding procession in India. … The groom and his horse are covered in finery and do not usually take part in the dancing and singing; that is left to the “baraatis” or people accompanying the procession. The groom usually carries a sword.
Varmala (Jaimala)
Jaimala is a wedding ritual in which, the bride and groom put fresh flower garlands into each other’s necks, followed by exchange of gifts. … The jaimala or also known as ‘varmala’ is an ancient tradition which has been practiced and followed ever since Indian weddings originated.
Phere (सात फेरे)
The saat phere (Hindi: सात फेरे sāt phéré “seven circumambulations”) is one of the most important features of the Hindu Wedding, involving seven rounds around a sacred fire lit for the purpose amidst the Vedic mantras. The bride and groom circumambulate a consecrated fire seven times, reciting specific vows with each circuit (Sanskrit: parikrama). Vows made in the presence of the sacred fire (Sanskrit: agni) are considered unbreakable, with Agnideva (lit. God/Lord of Fire; c.f. Latin cognates: ignis+deus) held as both witnessing and blessing the couple’s union. Every phera taken holds a specific meaning.
