elcome to the page on Hindu Marriages.

  In the world we live in there are many religions.  Each religion has its own way of conducting marriages.  Eventhough the rituals are different in each religion, the intent is the same.  This page gives the significances the Indian Hindu Marriage.
India is a huge country with many religions.  Hiduism is just one of the many religions which the people of India follow.  As vast as the country is, so is its main religion, Hinduism.  There are many castes and sub-caste which categorises the people.

The pages in this section reflect the Hindu marriage performed primarirly by the South Indian Brahmins.  Similarity exists with the marriages performed in other castes and sometimes there is a lot of diversification within the same caste.

As a note,  the primary information in the pages were from a pamplet distributed by a non-profit organization in India.  I got it from my parents on a recent visit to India.  These were cut and pasted into our wedding album to educate us and our friends on the various rituals.
