About the Hindu Wedding
A Hindu wedding is a beautiful blend of ancient traditions and sacred rituals. It typically involves the seven steps around the sacred fire (Saptapadi), symbolizing the vows taken by the couple. The ceremony is rich in symbolism, celebrating the union of two souls.
We invite you to join us in celebrating our love and the beginning of our journey together.
