Hello I am a marriage celebrant from Sydney 👍🏿 the ceremony was so beautiful 😍; here in Australia 🇦🇺 we will include legal side also legal vows but v nice ceremony hats off to the celebrant when you are in western culture it’s important to have inclusiveness hence some you from Subcontinent will not understand this 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@dharmikshah61]

After a long time, I did see a wedding where the significance of rituals in explained so well, making the ceremony more meaningful than just symbolic rituals and useless flamboyance. This video just prevented marriage from being commoditized as an industry, maintaining the sanctity of marriage.

[@ArvindAmin]

Glad to see you appreciated this approach. Rituals have to be meaningful and relevant to our times.

[@yashaswinisingh6869]

Very true.

[@Explorer9970]

I have read a few comments, and would like to say please change your attitude towards marriage. Marriage is a union of two soul, it's meant to celebrate the bond of love. Rituals are secondary and we don't need to follow it in a rigid way. If someone loves to get married in a traditional way, then it's fine. But you can't just say that this marriage ceremony has no charm. I appreciate this kind of marriage ceremony because of its simplicity, modesty and a sense of purity which it conveys. It's devoid of any kind of hustle and bustle. There is no fake showiness, everything seems to be so natural. This kind of ceremony should be promoted and we should wholeheartedly accept it.

[@pritiprerna4706]

@@ArvindAmin in hinduism , we need to have sindur and mangalsutra ritual. This is one of the most imp ritual. I do not know which book you refer and why that man left significance of these rituals. I felt incomplete when i watched this. But if the couple is happy, marriage and no marriage does not play big part. But i can not imagine my marriage without these two rituals. And i was litrlly waiting for the groom to fill her hair with sindur and tie the mangalsutra. Thats why i commented.

[@ArvindAmin]

@@pritiprerna4706 I understand your sentiments. I am making the point about "requirements". Do you know when and who started those rituals? And why they should be required for marriage to be complete?

No, it is not a mix. We had a separate American wedding. See the second video on this channel. The wedding in the video is not a typical Hindu wedding. It is different than most people are used to. But, there is always a first. Perhaps, the Hindu wedding you approve of was first a few years back. Open your minds and ask "why" on rituals and ceremonies before making a judgement on others. There is no "the" way of a Hindu wedding.
