Weddings are special and unique in every culture around the world. Indian weddings are also fun and full with lot of activity. In India the customs of marriage change with regions and also with languages. On the whole all the south Indian languages have some superficially similar customs. Through this post I wanted to display the colors, customs and celebrations of a traditional south Indian especially Telugu wedding.

A traditional telugu wedding takes place in 5 days...

Yes 5 days of grand celebrations, fun and much more.

Mangala suthram ( The holy yellow thread with two discs made of Gold, groom ties this to bride)

Groom ties three knots to the Mangla suthram ( This might be the story behind the story 'tying the knot')
