Planning a Traditional South Indian Wedding

A traditional South Indian wedding is woven with rituals that span days. From the Nischayathartham to the Muhurtham, every moment carries meaning. Begin with a clear timeline, choose an auspicious date with your family priest, and build your guest list early. Your decor should echo the temple aesthetic — banana leaves, marigold strings, brass lamps. Catering must reflect regional pride: Andhra meals on banana leaves, hot pesarattu at breakfast, and a grand wedding feast with at least 21 items.
