Nepal is a landlocked country known for its rich culture, diverse ethnic groups and is home to the world’s highest mountain range, Mount Everest. This pristine land is also of great spiritual importance for Buddhist believers as it is the birthplace of Gautam Buddha.

The culture of Nepal can be seen in its folk dances and music, as well as its cuisine and festivals. This vivid culture is also on display in their wedding rituals.

The wedding rituals consist of many pre-wedding ceremonies such as Janti (arrival of the groom at the wedding venue with his dear family and friends and a traditional music band).  After the arrival of both partners, the Kusha Ring ceremony is performed (symbolising blessings, purity and protection from negative energies). Followed by the Kalash (a brass container that acts as the cosmos, filled with water representing fertility). Things like flowers, fruits, rice, sindoor and money are offered to the gods for their blessings.

Another similar ceremony of Diyo is performed in which a cotton thread in a silver lantern is ignited and is believed to carry away any evil spirits and darkness from their lives. Another interesting ritual of a Nepali wedding is the bride walks around circles of the groom three times, depicting him as the centre of her world. Next is Dubo ko mala in which the couple exchanges a grass garland which doesn’t turn dull for a long time representing a joyful marriage. The groom then applies red vermillion power (sindur) to the bride’s front hair and puts a pote (red and golden necklace) around her neck.

All these were the most common Nepali Wedding Rituals. But let’s not forget that in Nepal, marriage is believed to be one of the main rituals an individual experiences. For that, they often see their family astrologer, who consults both the horoscopes and provides the most blessed dates for the wedding. Given below are the most auspicious Hindu wedding dates of 2024.
