rhythm of new start to the two souls out there ….
rhythm of eternity…..
both the houses were on hustle bustle all around ……preparations and what not ….
haldi cermony:
{a/n: the significance of most popular indian wedding tradition ‘haldi ceremony’…..
the haldi ceremony is the one in which a paste of haldi is applied on the bride and the groom’s body before their wedding. this ceremony is held at both the bride and the groom’s place, on the morning of the wedding day. in a few cultures, this ceremony is also held a day before the wedding, after the mehendiritual. it is known by different names in different regions, like ubtan, mandha, tel baan, etc…
traditionally, people make a paste using haldi and different ingredients according to their individual family customs. while some mix it with sandalwood powder and milk, others mix it with rose water. this paste is then applied on the bride and the groom’s face, neck, hands and feet, by their near and dear ones. this ceremony is also accompanied by traditional songs and dances at times.
in many customs, the bride and the groom also apply a small portion of this sacred paste on their unmarried friends and siblings. it is said that whoever gets touched by this paste will soon find a good looking partner.}

chooda cermony:
{ a/n :a choora is a set of bangles that are usually red and white, sometimes the red bangles are replaced with another color, but they are usually only two colors. traditionally made of ivory, with inlay work, though now made with plastic[1] they are worn by an indian bride on her wedding day, especially during hindu wedding and sikh wedding. the choora ceremony is held on the morning of the wedding or the day before. the bride’s maternal uncle and aunt give her a set of choorae (21 bangles in red and white ivory).}
dia was asked to take a seat near her mama ji and mami ji ..for the choora rasam …where she was asked to close her eyes …to not too see that chooda…meanwhile chooda was soaked in milk . it is a combination of red and white bangles with some glitters…after the choora and kaleri’s was worn it was covered with red makmali colth securely around her hand ..to keep the evil eye away…it can be removed in the beginning of wedding rituals..
