Actual Wedding Ceremony

III) While the wedding is in progress, the baraat is entertained outside by the bride's male family members. Therefore, it is mostly the women members of the bride's family who attend the wedding ceremony.Ceremonies and other rituals, including the bidai, are similar to other Hindu marriages. However, of particular interest are certain unique rituals. For example, at the time of the bidai, a coconut is placed under the wheel of the car before the ride lifts her veil for the husband after the wedding is an important ceremony. At this stage, the groom usually gives a piece of Jewellery to his bride.

The day following the Grihapravesh, the pagelagni takes place. This is a ceremony where the bride, still in veil, is formally introduced to all the family members of the groom who bless her and give her gifts. The veil is then finally removed.
