In my country, we are all rooted in tradition, in every parts of our life, starting from food, religion and customs that are reflected in our marriages.
In our culture, marriage represents not just the sacred union of two individuals, but the bonding of two families and extended relations as well.
Generally a traditional wedding is arranged by the Family & Ghotoks (Matchmakers), who are generally friends or relatives of the couple.
Bengali weddings are traditionally in four parts: 1.The Bride's Gaye holud
2.The Groom's Gaye holud 3.The Wedding Ceremony & 4.The Reception.
The "Gaye holud" take place before the wedding ceremony. The Groom starts from his house after receiving his Parent’s blessings.
Generally A Bengali Hindu Marriage can be divided into these following three parts:
1.Pre-wedding rituals like Ashirbad, Dodhi Mangal, Holud Kata, Sankha Porano. 2.Wedding rituals like Bor Boron, Potto Bastra, Sat Paak, Mala Badal, Shubho Drishti Sompadon, Saat Paak(Couple), Anjali, Sidur daan.
3.Post-wedding rituals like Bashar Ghar, Bashi Biye, Bidaye, Bou Boron, Kaal Ratri, Bou Bhaat, Phool Sajja, Dira Gaman.
Although nowadays the couple find each other according to their own choices.
