The religious ceremony is not to be performed in a hotel or banquet hall. Most of the wedding ceremonies were performed in the morning, and lasted up to a few hours although there is no restriction as to the start and end time of the ceremony. The whole process was very intriguing and a huge social event. The first ceremony that I got to be a part of was the engagement, which was performed about 4 days before the wedding. The engagement, better known as 'Kurmai', was conducted at the groom's home. The preparations for this day had begun weeks in advance, and had kept the whole family on their toes.
