The engagement (Nischay Tamulam)
True to its name, the engagement process involves the elders of both
families coming together to discuss the potential and compatibility of the
alliance. The formal procedure of acceptance includes providing a plate of
betel leaves and supari (betel nut from the areca tree). The groom's family
then visits the bride's house and gives her a sari, blouse piece, and some
fruits. The bride's family returns the gesture by providing coconuts, nuts, and
a dhoti. The bride and groom are then made to sit through a horoscope reading
session so that they can match their compatibility and understand how flexible
their marriage can be.

The families conduct the 'Nandi' puja a few days before the wedding to
ensure that there aren't any obstacles that can happen at the wedding. The
ceremony includes many offerings, with an aarti and a copper pot, termed as a
Kalash. It is a significant gesture to provide a cordial invitation to the Almighty
as a part of the whole ritual.

Wedding Attire
In Indian marriages, the dresses of the bride and the groom carry a
lot of meaning and connotations. The bride typically dresses in a Navari sari
with bright colored glass bangles, usually green, and a variety of gold jewelry
inherited from her mother's side. Every bridegroom wears a dhoti, the
angavastram, a pheta, or a turban simultaneously by holding a stick in his
right hand.

The Importance of Rituals
The ceremony begins amongst the 'Mandap Puja' wherever the hall or the
mandap following which this wedding is to take place. The mandap is blessed by
the wedding purohit to keep the curses at bay. The 'Var Puja' blesses the
arrival of the bridegroom, where the bride's father worships him. The bride's
parents showcase their respect for him by washing his feet and offering a silk
dhoti and pitambar.

goodbye
The moving part of the ceremony follows that – the giving away of the
bride or 'Dhare Herdu.' The bride's father is responsible for giving away his
daughter, placing their hands together in a symbolic gesture. The bride's
father then pours water into the groom's hands to prove that she is now his to
take care of.
This routine is called 'Dhara.' Then, corn and rice are put into the
havan five times before the 'saptapadi' or seven pheras. For this final
ceremony within the marriage, the groom's angavastram and bride's pallu are
knotted together, and they follow each other around the fire seven times,
featuring seven lifetimes of togetherness. The mangalsutra is tied around the
bride's neck, which the bridegroom holds in place while five women knot it.

temple. While Kannada weddings of recent times have been borrowed from other
cultures from the North or the west, the essence remains the same.
