    A saree is a single-piece garment that brides from South India typically wear. It is an unstitched fabric that measures five to nine yards, wrapped intricately to form a dress.

    Red and gold are traditional colors for Indian bridal outfits.

    The tikka headpiece symbolizes the third eye, ajna chakra.

    Mehndi (or henna) is the traditional art of decorating the hands and feet with beautiful, intricate patterns.

    The jaimala is the exchange of flower garlands, symbolizing the union of the partners.

    The havan (fire igniting) invokes Agni, the god of fire, who acts as a divine witness to the ceremony.

    Then, the pair encircles the agni kunda (fire vessel) to solidify their bond.
