Traditional Hindu Wedding Ceremonies
Traditional Hindu Wedding Ceremonies Overview
The Traditional Hindu Wedding Ceremonies package offers couples the unique opportunity to begin their life together with a authentic Nepali wedding. Following your query, a Nepali astrologer will fix your marriage date according to the position of the stars. You can choose between a typical rural or a luxury venue. Global Nepal Treks arranges everything: wedding dress for bride and groom, venue decoration, priest (Pundit), music (Panche Baaja), private decorated car, photography and videography, and all rituals according to the Holy Vedas.
The ceremony includes the groom wearing traditional Daura Suruwal with a tika, flower and dubo grass garland, and a khukuri at his waist. The bride wears a red sari‑cholo, chura‑tika, and golden ornaments. The groom’s procession (Janti) dances to traditional music. The couple sits by a sacred fire, the priest ties a knot (Lagan Gatho), they circle the fire seven times, exchange garlands, and finally the groom puts sindoor (vermillion powder) on the bride’s forehead – sealing the marriage for eternity.
After the wedding, the package includes a 7‑day honeymoon tour: mountain flight over Everest, Kathmandu sightseeing, flight to Pokhara, boating on Phewa Lake, sunrise at Sarangkot, and visits to caves and waterfalls. Global Nepal Treks handles all logistics, including 4‑star hotels, private transport, domestic flights, and a professional English‑speaking guide.
