A wedding is a ceremony where a couple is united through marriage. It varies with culture, tradition, religion etc.
Our wedding ceremony is referred as 'Biya' in Assamese language of the state of Assam,India. The whole affair takes about two to three days. The pre-wedding ritual is called 'Juroon' where the family of the groom comes to the bride's house to give the 'Juroon'( gifts of clothes and jewelleries). The bride wears traditional Assamese attire called (Mekhela Chaddar).
The next day, the groom gets ready to go to the bride's house for the marriage. The groom wears the traditional dress of dhoti,kurta,cheleng chaddar and puts basil leaves garland on his forehead.
