Konkani Wedding

Marriage is a big day in everyone’s life. The most waited a day in one’s lifetime and it comes with loads of customs, traditions, rituals, beliefs, blessings, and the list does not end here. India’s rich cultural diversity magnetizes people from all around the world. Konkani’s wedding is immersed in the sanctity of pure customs and rituals–an ethereal affair where two souls meet each other and become one for eternity. We also know the Konkani people as Gaud Saraswat Brahmins and, unlike other weddings, where the ritual goes on for the whole day, they performed most of the rituals in Konkani weddings early in the morning. Even though there are traditions that are followed from generation to generation, the culture and traditions in the Konkani wedding slightly differ from state to state. Here are some important wedding tradition rituals of the Konkani Wedding.
