Hindu Ceremony

In Hindu weddings, the mandap serves as the ceremonial altar, representing the home and life the couple will build together. Throughout the ceremony, guests will witness meaningful customs such as the exchange of garlands, prayers and offerings, blessings from family members, and rituals centered around the sacred fire, which symbolizes purity, light, and the divine witness to the marriage.

The celebration will begin with Grant’s Baraat, a joyful processional traditionally marking the groom’s arrival. Surrounded by music, dancing, family, and friends, Grant will process with guests from the Center Court Loggia through Center Court to Palm Terrace. This lively tradition sets a celebratory tone before guests are seated for the ceremony.

Guests are not expected to know each tradition in advance. You are invited to observe, enjoy, and take in the beauty, color, music, and meaning of this special ceremony as both families come together.
