In a Brahmin wedding, you can witness a lot of rituals that come straight from old Vedic times. Serving food on clean banana leaves, festoons hanging from mango leaves, people wearing Panchakacham and Madisar and pompous nadhaswaram are some of them. Also, who can forget the famous athirasam? However, these rituals are not just meant for pomp and splendor, they have significant meaning which is still unknown to some.
So here find out some beautiful wedding rituals of South Indian Brahmins that will really fascinate you.
Vandanam
In this ritual the bride’s family receives the groom’s family with flowers, Thamboola, Paruppu Thengai Urundai and coconut. With these items they welcome the groom with his family and relatives outside the place of wedding.
Sometimes getting these items in Kolkata becomes really difficult. So some matrimony agencies are offering great matrimony services in Kolkata to look after your needs and even arrange the wedding.
Vratham
Vratham is the place where the marriage begins. In this ceremony, both families invoke deities as well as their ancestors. After that a ‘Kappu’ is tied around the waist which is believed to ward off the evil.
Nichayathartham
This is actually an engagement ceremony. Once the groom arrives at the marriage venue, the procedure of the engagement takes place.
These are some of the sacred rituals that are performed in Brahmin weddings. If you are also looking for a Brahmin life partner, you can register on a free online matrimony website and find matches based on your preferences.
