Indian Wedding Traditions!
Sweets, eggs, and money are woven into to wedding
themes of India. They symbolize, respectively, a sweet
life, fertility, and prosperity. The Hindu wedding
ceremony includes customary rituals to ward off evil
spirits.
After the wedding vows have been exchanged the groom's
father or brother showers flower petals on the
newlyweds; then he holds a coconut over the bride and
groom's heads and circles it around them three times. An
Indian groom often wears a turban with a veil of flowers
streaming down in front of his face to protect him from
evil spirits. |

Traditional Indian brides wear
pink and red saris on their wedding day, adorning
themselves extravagantly with as much jewelry as
possible. Henna staining, a customary art form, is
still practiced by Indian brides to be.
On the eve of her wedding vows, following a
traditional ceremonial cleansing, the bride-to-be
will have her hands and feet painted with henna, in
beautiful paisley or medallion patterns.
Then a special wedding gift is given to the bride, a
necklace signifying her married status.
