The bride walks around the groom seven times. Then they exchange, no, not rings, but garlands of flowers. The presenter accompanies each answer with a sound of a special instrument. Traditional music is also an important part of the ceremony. Traditional fruit decorations, sanskrit texts. incense ads to the atmosphere. Fire plays an important role too.
