Indian weddings are unlike any other.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While attending an Indian wedding, you will get the chance to witness a wide array of food, ceremonies, colors, rituals, and dances. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seeing as it\u2019s your first Indian wedding, you are likely to get a bit overwhelmed by all that is going on. And, you probably also have a lot of questions about etiquette at an Indian wedding as well. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, fear not. We\u2019re here to demystify some of the experience of an Indian wedding for you.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read on to learn the top five things to expect when attending your first Indian wedding.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Modest Dress <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During typical Western weddings, especially during the summer months, bare shoulders and bare knees are usually the norms.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, at an Indian wedding, it is expected that you dress very modestly and brightly colored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are a woman, and you would like to dress traditionally, a sari or a lehenga is what you\u2019d wear. You will see men wearing sherwanis, which are long coat-like garments, or sometimes you will also see them wearing kurta pajamas at some point during the festivities like this <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nihalfashions.com\/men\/kurta-pajama\">Kurta Pajama for Men<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also acceptable to wear Western clothing, just make sure it\u2019s modest, tasteful, and still colorful. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019d like to add some jewelry, bangles, gold chains, and bindis are common.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-48558 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1160\" height=\"774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-749x500.jpg 749w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-672x448.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-1149x767.jpg 1149w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-48558 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1160\" height=\"774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-749x500.jpg 749w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-672x448.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Indian-wedding-1149x767.jpg 1149w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Not a One Day Ceremony<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typical Western weddings start the ceremony around 3, and then have the cocktail hour around 5, followed by the reception. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indian weddings are rather different in that the weddings typically last for 3 days. From the pre-wedding events (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/silknstone.com\/About-Henna.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rituals like Mehndi)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to the actual ceremony, to the reception, there\u2019s a lot that\u2019s packed in a few short days.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most Indian weddings clearly let you know what events you are invited to, so you don\u2019t have to do any guessing. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, be prepared for some of these events to take place at strange hours. The hour of the ceremony is often based around astrology, so don\u2019t be surprised if you are expected to be somewhere around 2 or 3 am.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Come Hungry <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a guest, it is expected that you take part in the wedding feast. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accepting food is a sign that you approve of the marriage and that you are giving your best wishes to the bride and groom. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically, you will be treated to appetizers upon arrival, a main dish after the ceremony, and dessert after that. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/quatr.us\/india\/indian-food-history-ancient.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indian food<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, while uniquely flavored, is quite delicious. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So come with an open mind and an empty stomach!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Money is a Traditional Gift <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Money is the go-to Indian wedding gift, and it is actually thought of as the most thoughtful. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should place the money you give in a pretty bag or pretty envelope, along with your best wishes. The amount you give will depend on how well you know the couple, but no matter what currency, it is customary to give them a number ending in \u201c1\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Check Before Snapping Pics <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s okay to take pictures during most parts of an Indian wedding. However, during certain rituals, it is strictly forbidden. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to look around before you snap any pics, just to be on the safe side. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these things in mind, you are ready for your first Indian wedding!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you attending an Indian wedding for the first time?\u00a0If so, you are in for a very unique and exciting experience.
