Wedding ceremony traditions
1.Indian weddings involve many ceremonies, such
as the painting of the hands and feet of the bride called a mehndi. Garlands
are presented to guests of honor and
lots of flower or rose petals are
thrown for good luck.
2.The wedding is typically divided into three
parts: pre-wedding, main, and post-wedding. The pre-wedding includes all the
preparations and a party the night before where each side of the family can
meet each other and dance and have fun. A Pandit, - is a person
who selects the day of the wedding
based on the bride and groom’s horoscopes, conducts a prayer with family
members to provide the couple with a happily married life.
3.The wedding altar (mandapa) is built
the day of and the groom is welcomed by his future mother -in- law where his feet are then washed and he is
offered milk and honey. His sister -in- law will attempt to steal his shoes and
if she succeeds, the groom must pay her to get them back. An Indian groom
typically wears a turban with a veil of flowers to protect him from evil
spirits.
4.The bride wears Saree . The
bride’s saree is tied to the groom’s scarf to symbolize the union of the souls.
5.In Indian weddings, the Mangala Sutra
is tied around the bride’s neck instead of exchanging rings. The mangala sutra
is a cord with two gold pendants and is tied in three knots by the groom to
symbolize the bonding of the two souls for 100 years. This necklace lets others
know that the bride is married.
6.fun game for the newlyweds is called
Aeki Beki where a tray of water is mixed with milk and sindoor (vermillion)
and it is filled with coins and a ring. Whoever finds the ring four out of
seven times will rule the household. The day is then concluded with prayers to
God requesting happiness and love for the newlyweds.

Wedding ceremony traditions
1. Even before the betrothal,
the mother of the bride usually spends years collecting various
household items for her daughter’s dowry. When the dowry has been
presented to the couple, local girls volunteer to set up and decorate the newlywed’s
home.
2.When the groom
proposes, he is expected to ask the father for the daughter’s hand in marriage
before the bride. A betrothal service is held when the engagement
becomes official and the rings are blessed by the priest, they are later
blessed once more during the marriage ceremony because they are usually the same
rings.During the engagement, the bride and groom wear their rings on the left
hand and after they are married, the couple switches their rings to the right.
3.In the Greek tradition, the
bride and groom are honored as queen and king for the day, and so during the
ceremony they wear crowns made of either gold or orange blossoms
that are connected with a ribbon to signify the union.
4.The best man (Koumbaros)
leads the ceremony along with the priest and he is the one who places the crown
on the couple’s heads. He also exchanges the rings between the bride and
groom 3 times to remind the couple that in married life, the weaknesses of one
are compensated by the strengths of the other and vice versa.When the ceremony
is complete, the bride and groom walk around the altar three times to symbolize
the trinity and their first walk as a married couple.
5.During the reception,
traditional Greek food is served and guests dance to Greek music in the
traditional style. During one of the newlywed dances, guests pin money onto the
bride and after the celebration, dishes are smashed on the floor with
choruses of “opa” for good luck.
