About the hosts
Ankur & Ankur's story
They say love finds its own way — sometimes through years of knowing, sometimes in a single meeting. Our story began as an arrangement, but soon turned into a bond filled with laughter, understanding, and a promise for life. This engagement is not just a celebration of two people, but of two families, two journeys, and the beauty of love that grows with time. Because yes… arranged marriages can be beautiful too

Jaimala
Jaimala is a common part of many Indian weddings.
Once the bride enters the wedding mandap, she goes on to put seven suhalis over the groom’s head. Following this, the groom and the bride exchange garlands amidst a lot of cheering by friends and family.
Saptapadi or Phera
Regarded as the most important ritual of a Hindu marriage, Saptapadi assumes much significance in Marwari weddings as well.
During this ritual, the bride and the groom go around the holy fire seven times while the priests chant mantras. They take their wedding vows and promise to be there for each other all lifelong.
Vidaai
Vidaai marks an emotional moment in the course of the wedding.
As the bride leaves her paternal home and sets off for the groom’s house, she bids a tearful goodbye to her family and friends. Her parents send her off with blessings for her new life.
