Punjab is the state of five rivers located in the northern part of India. The main language spoken is Punjabi.
Weddings in Punjab are usually lavish and the pre and post wedding rituals are conducted over a few days. The pre-wedding rituals include rokka (Pre-engagement), Mangni/Shagun (engagement), tikka ceremony (where items considered to be auspicious are exchanged and a red tilak is applied using sindoor), Dholki/sangeet (Indian equivalent of bridal shower), Mehndi (application of henna tattoo to the bride and the female relatives on both sides).
The wedding ritual usually consists of milni (introductions), followed by varamala (exchange of garlands), kanyadaan (giving away of the bride), sindoor application by the groom and phere (encircling the sacred fire seven times). Post wedding ceremony includes vidaai where the bride is sent off from her parent's home to her husband's house by her family.
