Asian Wedding Traditions
What Will You Include For Your Wedding Celebrations?
An Asian wedding is a vibrant celebration filled with traditions, culture, colours, and joyful festivities that often span over multiple days. It's a wonderful mix of family bonding, customs, and enjoyable activities.
Here's a breakdown of the different parts of an Indian or Asian wedding so you have everything in order:
1. Engagement Ceremony: This is the official start where the couple exchanges vows with their families present. Sagai, Nishchayam, Ashirbad or Sakhar Puda, it doesn't matter what your ceremony is known as, this is a vital pre-wedding ritual that announces the couple's intention to marry.
2. Pre-wedding Rituals: These include ceremonies like Haldi, Mehendi, and Sangeet. Haldi involves applying turmeric paste on the couple for luck and beauty. Mehendi brings intricate henna designs to the bride's hands and feet. Sangeet is a joyful evening of music and dance for both families.
3. Wedding Day Rituals: The big day begins with the Baraat where the groom arrives at the venue usually on a decorated horse or car. The bride's family then welcomes the groom and his family with traditional ceremonies. The wedding ceremony follows religious customs, with the couple taking the seven pheras around the holy fire. This is shortly followed by the Kanyadaan ceremony which involves the bride's father giving her away to the groom.
4. Post-wedding Celebrations: The celebration doesn't end on the wedding day. There's Vidaai where the bride bids farewell to her family and leaves with her husband where the newlyweds are then introduced to extended family and friends.
The food, clothing, and decorations also play an essential part of an Asian or Indian wedding. The wedding menu is typically a mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. The attire is traditional and colourful. Decorations involve flowers, lights, and various items to create a festive ambiance.
An Asian wedding is a grand and memorable affair full of ceremonies, traditions, and customs. Each part adds to the beauty of the occasion, creating lasting memories for everyone involved.
