Hindu Ceremony

June 15, 2024

Attire: Traditional Indian (Women: Sarees, Lehengas, Salwars; Men: Kurtas)
Welcome to the main event! This is a traditional Telugu South Indian Wedding where the bride is escorted to the mandapam dressed in a Kanchipuram pattu saree and gold jewellery. The couple sit opposite to each other with a curtain between them to prevent sneaking looks at each other. Then the Kanyadaan ritual is performed by the father of the bride. The curtain is lowered down to perform the mangalsutra ceremony. After this, the couple exchanges garlands and are showered with flowers and turmeric rice. Next ritual in line is Saptapadi, where the couples take seven rounds around the fire, and vow to stay together throughout the ups and downs of life. This marks the union of Naveena and Ravi. Location: Pier Deck at Generations Riviera Maya
