Type of Indian wedding - (1)

#Gujarati
The wedding starts with jaimaala, where the couple exchange garlands twice. There are just four pheras in Gujarati weddings followed by seven steps.

#Maharashtrian
Prior to the wedding, the shakhar puda (engagement) ceremony takes place. During the wedding, the couple is separated with a silk shawl partition. After mangalshatkas are recited, the shawl is removed. After a few rituals, the couple seek permission from their parents to get married and then the pheras take place.

#Bengali

A Bengali wedding is followed by saat paak, where the bride encircles the groom seven times, while covering her face with betel leaves. Afterwards, shubhodrishti is performed, where the bride removes the leaves and the couple’s eyes meet. This is followed by the blowing of conch shells.

#sikh
A Sikh wedding is very similar to a Punjabi wedding, except that it takes place during the day in a Gurudwara, where ardaas are recited.

#Kanada

Weddings in Karnataka are the magnificent concoction of simple and traditional values that highlight the true nature of the state. Unlike the other parts of India, wedding in Karnataka is not a glittering or resplendent affair. It, instead, is a simple affair that mostly is concerned with the practice of rituals and traditions. In recital, Kannada marriage resembles the traditional Hindu marriage. However, the customs and traditions observed do differ according to the region they are practiced in. As a matter of act of fact there is not much difference and the rituals are simple. This provides plentiful opportunity to the families to enjoy the occasion.
