I heard Indian ceremonies are really long. How long will yours be?
Before the ceremony, the groom's guests and family members will make their way to the wedding venue in a grand fashion (see "elephants" below). Once the ceremony starts, it will last about an hour.
What will the ceremony be like?
The ceremony will take place under a canopy-like structure called a mandap. A Hindu priest will officiate and numerous relatives perform specific roles under his guidance. The bride and groom will be seated in front of the priest for most of the ceremony. The priest will recite verses in Sanskrit, but will also provide English explanations of the rituals. The ceremony will involve Gujarati customs, as both our families are originally from the state of Gujarat in India. More detailed information will be available in our wedding program.
Will you exchange rings? Do you take vows and say, "I do"? Will the bride and groom kiss?
While exchanging rings is not a traditional part of the Indian ceremony, we will be incorporating this custom into ours. The groom will also give the bride a mangalsutra, or sacred necklace, as a symbol of their marriage. There are seven vows taken during the ceremony, but you won't see us locking lips.
