The Chuda Ceremony will begin with puja after which the oldest member of the family will put Chuda (Set of cream and red ivory bangles) on to Anubha’s hands. After the Puja everybody present will touch the chuda which symbolizes that they are blessing the bride and wishing her the best. After this the Kaleere (long chains of golden bells) would be tied to the brides bangles. The fun part in this ceremony is, bride moves the tied Kaleere on the heads of unmarried friends and family members, in case a chain falls and touches the head of any of them, it means that person will get married really soon. So if you want to tie the knot really soon, you know where to come. |
