Wedding Vendors Worldwide
Engagement Ceremony in India: Offeri
Marriage is a celebration of life and
every young heart cherishes the
thought of it! It serves as a decisive
occasion and commitment, care
and happiness are the ingredients
that define the synergism of the
soul for the newly married couple.
The marriage proposal
substantiates into engagement
which marks the first step towards
the soulful union of the prospective
bride and groom.
Marriage also marks the union of
the two families and in countries
like India, a rich fervour starts to
build up that culminates into a… Page 1 of 8
gala wedding. Even the
engagement ceremony is a good
celebration to live and feel the
genres; there are adorations and
glam and there are foods and
traditions of value! Let’s us peep
into some of the customs and
engagement ceremony icons that
mark the occasion.
Culture is the most determining
attribute of the Indian wedding and
this dominant facet makes it felt
significantly through diverse
customs that start from the
engagement itself. India being a
land of different faiths and… Page 2 of 8

regions also adores regional
traditional elements which vary from
one to other place.
However, ironically, as stated in the
lines above, the cultural
components have emerged more
potent and generate an authentic
universal canvass. There are
mehndi designs and lehengas and
paan and ubtans and much more!
Some of the vibrant customs of
Indian engagement ceremony are –
• The chunni rasam
The chunni or the dupatta rasam… Page 3 of 8
Engagement Ceremony in India: Offeri
is adhered to generally by all the
caste and credes here in India. The
elder lady garments the bride to be
with a decorative dupatta – a
colourful neck and best garment of
the lady. She does such to mark the
acceptance of the young girl as her
daughter in law or as the case may
be. A sense of intimacy is
developed! In most of the cases,
this authentic adoration is
accompanied by the gold jewellery
for her from the side of the groom to
be. Other gifts and pleasantries are
also showered!
• The ring exchange occasion Page 4 of 8
Engagement Ceremony in India: Offeri
Exchange of the ring is newer
tradition that has found almost
universal acceptance in all the
regions and faiths here in India.
This could be called as the western
influence; although rings were the
intrinsic components of the wedding
jewellery since times immemorial in
India! The societies are shedding
their conservative attitudes and
allowing for the exchange of the
rings by the prospective bride and
groom. Both are congratulated then
after.
It should be noted that the older
customs have never been… Page 5 of 8
Engagement Ceremony in India: Offeri
eclipsed by the newer ones and
both find amalgamation as active
and cherished concepts.
• Family gifting traditions and
souvenirs
Exchanging gifts is one of the core
elements of the engagement
ceremony in India. The bride’s and
groom’s families give gifts to each
other and to the congregated
guests. Such gifting traditions make
the engagement as really fat and
gala ceremony to live and enjoy.
Souvenirs are also offered like the
custom watches bearing… Page 6 of 8

engagement dates or the like.
• The sweets and fruits as mark of
pomp and wellness cum health
The sweets and fruits are offered in
traditional hand woven tokris or
baskets. Generally, the groom’s
family brings the same to greet their
new daughter in law (to be) and her
relatives when they reach at her
place to conduct the engagement
ceremony.
