An Indian Wedding covers all stages of preparation for life after marriage, from encounters of couples to meeting families,

Indian Weddings, which consist of three main stages before the wedding marriage ceremony and celebration, also remind traditional Anatolian marriage traditions.For example, the ceremony that the Indians call Shagun can be compared to asking for the girl's hand in marriage. The groom's mother goes to the girl's house with gifts and deserts, and the official process of marriage between the two families begins. Brass, which represents abundance and abundance very much like Turkish style, is for the young couple to have an endless happiness for a lifetime. Another phase, Mangni or Sagaai, seems to be engaged. Let us state that all the relatives and friends of the couple are present and rings that will join them for a lifetime are worn.

One of the pre-wedding ceremonies is the Mehendi ceremony, which resembles the henna night. The interesting thing is that the traditional Indian henna ceremony is a ceremony that only women attend. The bride's hands and feet are adorned by a Mehendi master. Families invite the masters of Mehendi according to their financial situation, because this isn’t a job for everyone, it is literally an art. Henna is special to every bride, each one is different and unique… When applying henna, the bride is given all kinds of advice, now she is told that she has grown up and will leave her family. Today, in modern Indian weddings, Mehendi takes place with mixed ceremonies for women and men.
