Vivah Sanskar

About this Ritual

A Vedic marriage is a long ceremony and this booking treats it as one. It covers the ganesh puja and mandap sthapana, the kanyadaan, the panigrahan, the four to seven pheras, and the saptapadi — the seven steps that constitute the marriage itself and after which the couple is married. The pandit explains each vow in Hindi or Marathi as it is taken, rather than leaving the couple to repeat Sanskrit they do not follow. Families consistently say this is the part that made the ceremony feel like theirs. Because the timing is fixed by the muhurat and the venue is rarely the family home, please book this well ahead and add the venue address in the notes. The pandit will call to walk through the sequence and the timing before the day.
