Ceremonies for a Hindu marriage

Description

  1. A Hindu marriage may be solemnized in accordance with the customary rites and ceremonies of either party thereto.
  2. Where such rites and ceremonies include the Saptapadi (that is, the taking of seven steps by the bridegroom and the bride jointly before the sacred fire), the marriage becomes complete and binding when the seventh step is taken.
