Big, bold and beautiful, these celebrations are far from boring.  An Indian wedding will have been planned so perfectly, you wont ever see anything go wrong! The intricacies and details of each aspect will amaze you, from the flowers and decoration to the clothing and jewellery, these events are one of a kind!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, the festivities continue over a three-day period with different ceremonies and parties happening on each of the days. Indian weddings are extremely significant within the culture and community; they are a celebration of not only love, but rich heritage and tradition, often from religion and join together family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"625\" height=\"417\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_764321776_625x417.jpg\" alt=\"Indian Bride and Groom celebrating their wedding\" class=\"wp-image-6232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_764321776_625x417.jpg 625w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_764321776_625x417-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3>Did you know?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The date that the wedding is held on is determined by the bride and groom\u2019s birthdays. Astrologists will take these dates and calculate the position of the stars and planets to reflect the date that the wedding will be held.<\/li><li>The bride\u2019s hands and feet are painted with Henna paint during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brides.com\/story\/hindu-wedding-ceremony\">Mehndi ceremony<\/a> with intricate patterns and designs. This decoration not only looks incredible, but Mehndi (what Henna is made from) is known to be a medicinal herb that can promote less stress and anxiety, just what\u2019s needed before your wedding day!<\/li><li>The ceremonies during the event take place in a Mandap \u2013 this is a stage like structure that is often elevated and decorated with flowers and greenery. <\/li><li>During Indian weddings, a small fire will burn in the centre of the Mandap, known as the \u2018sacred fire\u2019. This symbolises the meaning of the marriage being a sacrament rather than a contract and is a witness to offerings made during the ceremony.<\/li><li>The groom will place a necklace of black and gold beads, known as the Mangala Sutra, around the bride. Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, fortune and prosperity, is known to be linked with the Mangala Sutra to ensure the bride receives blessings during her marriage.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"625\" height=\"417\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_1376998388_625x417.jpg\" alt=\"A bride's hands painted with Henna for her wedding\" class=\"wp-image-6234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_1376998388_625x417.jpg 625w, https:\/\/www.wendywutours.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/shutterstock_1376998388_625x417-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Wendy Wu Tours&#8217; &#8216;Indian Wedding&#8217;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3>The iconic sights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bursting with vibrant culture, deep-rooted tradition and mouth-watering cuisine, this tour is truly one of a kind.
