Wedding is the most precious, prestigious and auspicious occasion of one’s life. Marriage is not an event that becomes history or fades couple of years later. It is an occasion, which should be remembered for the rest of the life. Similarly, wedding album is not a History book once written and forgotten. It’s a lifetime pleasurable moments you spent with your life partner and with family members. Wedding is an Olympian get-together and is a rare celebration. One should be serious about it and should not compromise with photography. Wedding photography is not capturing moments only but preserves for generations. Don’t let your lifetime memories and precious wedding photography in hands of amateur or friend. (Especially just because of price or cost. The truth is no one gives you Maruti Swift in cost of Maruti 800). Wedding and live events rely on being in the right place at right time, if your cameramen has limited experience he could very well missed precious moment!
I consider my self a wedding photojournalist. The Photojournalist is who narrate a story through the use of photographs. Wedding photojournalist is who takes pictures in wedding with different approach and point of view. Like photojournalist in media, wedding photojournalist present the story of the day through photographs. Basically they are storyteller. A wedding photojournalist captures emotions and facial expressions with different prospective. They do totally different type of photography unlike photographers does in studio or in other outdoor events.
This wedding was blend of Punjabi and Bengali(Bangoli ) style. I am so much fascinated with Indian culture and its traditions. May be that's because now I am into wedding photography as well. You can enjoy different culture, moods, and rituals in single day. Happy clicking!

It is tradition that the bride will try to wear as many small glass bangles as possible at her wedding and the honeymoon will end when the last bangle breaks.
Chooda is a kind of bangle that is worn by Punjabi women on her wedding day. It is a set of white and red bangles with stone work.
Bangles (aka churi or Choodi) are traditional ornaments worn mostly by South Asian women in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. It is tradition that the bride will try to wear as many small glass bangles as possible at her wedding and the honeymoon will end when the last bangle breaks. Bangles also have a very traditional value in Hinduism and it is considered inauspicious to be bare armed for a married woman.[1] Toddler to older woman could wear bangles based on the type of bangles. Bangles made of gold or silver are preferred for toddlers.
Some men wear a single bangle on the arm or wrist called kada or kara. In Sikhism, The father of a Sikh bride will give the groom a gold ring, a kara (steel or iron bangle), and a mohra.[2] Chooda is a kind of bangle that is worn by Punjabi women on her wedding day. It is a set of white and red bangles with stone work. According to tradition, a woman is not supposed to buy the bangles she will wear. Hyderabad, Pakistan, is the world's largest producer of Bangles. While Moradabad is India's largest producer of bangles.
A standard bangle is used as an adornment. A new special type of bangle doubles as a clip for hanging items such as a handbag.

On most festive occasions, women wear bangles, a symbol of good luck and part of tradition.
Bangles are made from every conceivable material
BANGLES ARE in fashion. Gone are the days when they were worn by few and matched with traditional wear. Today, jean glad girls are wearing it with as much style as what their mothers and grandmothers wore as part of ritual, tradition and occasion. The festival of Sankranti, which just went by is one such occasion when bangles are worn as a ritual.
Be it for their enthralling colours, their lovely designs and patterns, ornamental appeal, their musical tinkle or the traditional value, bangles have survived the test of time. Indian women still consider bangles to be fashion accessories that enhance the way they look, while also helping them remain faithful to long-established customs.
It might surprise some to know that bangles were worn as decorative accessories during the pre- and post-Vedic periods, and they had little or no ceremonial association.
The excavated remains of the Indus Valley civilization bear proof to the fact that women wore bangles on their arms and forearms to make themselves look more attractive.
It is said that medieval India included bangles in various customs and gave the
ornament a ritualistic significance.
As a result, arried women and young girls customarily wear bangles today.
It is considered inauspicious, by those who choose to believe so, to have arms bereft of the colourful adornment.
And yes, it is coloured bangles that are deemed to be more propitious than the gold or silver ones. Green and red glass bangles are auspicious for married women. In Maharashtra, women wear these on all important and special occasions in the family. As a matter of fact, pregnant women are given green glass bangles to wear on both their arms.
In Northern India and in the South, red assumes ritualistic relevance.
In Bengal, married women wear red and white bangles.
The white bangle is beautifully crafted from conch while the red is made either of coral or lac.
While the red and white ones are quite important as a symbol of matrimony, what is crucial is the loha or iron kada that is worn along with them. Some Bengalis get the loha gold-plated rather skillfully, giving it a more contemporary look.
The custom of the bride wearing ivory bangles extends from Punjab to Gujarat and Rajasthan. In Gujarat, the bride receives an ivory bangle from her family just before marriage.
The saptapadi (or the seven rounds around the sacred fire) cannot be carried out without her wearing this bangle. Rajasthani brides wear ivory bangles on their arms and forearms, right up to their shoulders.
In Punjab, the bride is given very slender and delicate red and white bangles in ivory, in multiples of four. These are called choodas. Of course, these have now been replaced with white plastic and red lac bangles, while the Bengalis still stand by tradition.
Bangles are vital not just during weddings, but also on the occasion of baby shower, which in the Indian context can be referred to as the bangle ceremony.
It is believed to be an event held to ward off evil spirits that might be lurking around the mother-to-be or the baby in the womb.
The mother-to-be, full of health and radiance, diverts the evil spirits' attention to her arms full of bangles (glass, silver, conch, or shell bangles, depending on the region and community), thereby deflecting danger to her or the baby.
The only time that a married woman removes her bangles is either at labour while having a baby or when she is widowed.
While the former is significant of an easy delivery, the latter has tragic connotations.
That is why, when glass bangles break, it is thought to portend ill luck.
Bangles (the word having been derived from the Hindi bangri or bangali, which in Sanskrit means the ornament which adorns the arm) have become a fashion statement today.
Young women wear bangles for their
jingling sound and for value as a trendy accessory.
They wear them by the dozen and even match them with their clothes.
They do not restrict themselves to glass, gold, or silver, but buy lac, metal, beaded, stone, conch, terracotta, wooden, pearl, and plastic bangles, as well as those studded with gems and precious stones.
Hyderabad and Firozabad are the favourite haunts for those looking for an amazing variety of strikingly beautiful bangles. If you happen to visit these places, you just might chance upon Kasars there, who specialise in the art of making bangles.
So, when you see beautiful arms with strikingly pretty bangles resting delicately on their wrists, make sure you give them a second look. You might just be inspired to wear some yourself.

Bangles are rigid bracelets, usually from metal, wood, or plastic. They are traditional ornaments worn mostly by South Asian women in India, Nepal, Pakistan and Bangladesh. It is a common tradition to see a new bride wearing glass bangles at her wedding and the honeymoon will end when the last bangle breaks. Bangles also have a very traditional value in Hinduism and it is considered inauspicious to be bare armed for a married woman. Toddler to older woman could wear bangles based on the type of bangles. Bangles made of gold or silver are preferred for toddlers.
Bangles are also known as Nepali: चुरा Chura, Bengali: চুড়ি churi, Tamil: வளையல், Hindi: चूड़ी Choodi, Marathi: बांगडी 'Bangadi, Telugu: గాజు, and Urdu: چوڑیاں.
Some men wear a single bangle on the arm or wrist called kada or kara. In Sikhism, the father of a Sikh bride will give the groom a gold ring, a kara (steel or iron bangle), and a mohra. Chooda is a kind of bangle that is worn by Punjabi women on her wedding day. It is a set of white and red bangles with stone work. According to tradition, a woman is not supposed to buy the bangles she will wear.
Bangles or Chudi (Tamil: Valayal) (Telugu: గాజు) (Malayalam: Vala) are traditional ornaments worn by Indian women, especially Hindus. They are worn after marriage to signify matrimony. It is tradition that the bride will try to wear as many small glass bangles as possible at her wedding and the honeymoon will end when the last bangle breaks.
They are circular in shape, and, unlike bracelets, are not flexible. The word is derived from Hindi bungri (glass).[1] They are made of numerous precious as well as non-precious materials such as gold, silver, platinum, glass, wood, ferrous metals, plastic, etc.
Bangles are part of traditional Indian jewelry. They are usually worn in pairs by women, one or more on each arm. Most Indian women prefer wearing either gold or glass bangles or combination of both. Inexpensive bangles made from plastic are slowly replacing those made by glass, but the ones made of glass are still preferred at traditional occasions such as marriages and on festivals.
The designs range from simple to intricate handmade designs, often studded with precious and semi-precious stones such as diamonds, gems and pearls. Sets of expensive bangles made of gold and silver make a jingling sound. The imitation jewelry, tend to make a tinny sound when jingled.

The Haldi ceremony is a ritual holy bath, (variously known as pithi ceremony, gaaye holud, gatro horidra, tel Baan, pellikuturu, mangala snaman )which is one of the pre-wedding ceremonies in Hindu weddings of India. Ground and pasted Turmeric (Haldi), oil is applied and water is poured on both the bride and groom by married women on the morning of the wedding. Turmeric is known for its medicinal properties as well as being antiseptic and anti-inflammatory, and application of this ingredient before marriage would ensure that the bride and groom are blessed with blemish-free glowing skin. At times sandalwood and curd are also mixed with the paste. Yellow is considered a color associated with happiness and harmony, a ritual flower-shower with yellow flowers ( preferably marigold) is followed by the application of the Haldi paste and a haldi-Holi ( throwing of yellow colors) is played.
A lot of times, before the ritual commences,chooda , a set of bangles, (traditionally means a set of 21 bangles in red and white/ ivory) is worn by the bride. Chooda is said to bring good luck to the newlyweds. Also, red is a very important color for a married woman in India as it strengthens the bond between a couple. Fertility and prosperity are also associated with the chooda, and it is worn for a minimum period of 40 days and a maximum of 1.5 years after the wedding.
Kaleerein is umbrella-shaped hangings that were earlier made of silver or dry coconut and makhana that are encrusted with dried beetle nuts and dry fruits. The significance is to provide good wishes to the bride and to remind her of her cousins and friends whom she is going to leave behind when she gets married. Also, the coconut-shaped kalirein is symbolic that she never runs out of food in the new home, while the metal symbolizes wealth and prosperity But now the modern kaliras are made of metal and studded with rhinestones. These are worn after the chooda ceremony when the bride is all dressed up in her bridal wear. Kaleere is gifted by Bride’s sisters, friends, and close relatives. After the kalire is tied, a bride makes all her unmarried friends and she shakes her hands on their heads. It is believed that if any part of the kalire falls on the head of any girl she will get married soon.
Often the decor of the Haldi ceremony is done in bright summer colors with preferably yellow and white flowers, and the relatives are encouraged to wear yellow, orange, and white-colored clothes. The bride traditionally wears something in yellow and often wears flower jewelry. Women in the house, also sing local folk songs associated with the ritual while applying turmeric paste on the bride/groom. The family feeds sweets to each other after the ritual is over.

Prit lives a poor lifestyle along with her widowed mother in a village in Punjab. After a series of misunderstandings with her fellow-collegian, Amarkumar Pal, both fall in love and want to get married. Amarkumar meets with Laajo, who approves of him, but Amarkumar's maternal uncle, Shaadilal, opposes this marriage as he knows that Laajo is not who she claims to be and that Prit may be an illegitimate child.

Ruwanweli Seya, also known as 'Rathnamaali Mahaa chetiya" or simply "Mahaa (meaning;great) Seya" is considered the most respected of all the stupas in Sri Lanka. Stupa is a Buddhist religious monument that would essentially contain Buddhist relics inside its core and a gem called "Chooda-maanikya" that repels lightning on top of its conical head. The bigger stupa shown here is the aforementioned Ruwanweli seya while the smaller is one of the four attendant seyas around it. Ruwanweliseya stands 92m tall and has a circumference of 292m. Built in 3rd century B.C by the ruler then, King Dutugemunu.

The Bride is not allowed to see the chooda at the time of chooda ceremony .She has to remain her eyes close ,till the time red clothe is tied on that she is allow to see it in evening of marriage.
'Chuda' or 'Chooda' is an integral part of Punjabi wedding. For me its the favorite of all pre-wedding ceremonies.
According to an indian(punjabi) wedding,the bride's uncle makes her wear these bangles famously called the "CHOODA",on the wedding day.

A year or two before, maroon chooda was like in vogue but girlsss, go for red chooda now, it looks more trendy and vibrant, it goes very well with both Indian and western outfits.

Kalira (also spelled as Kaleera or Kalire) is a silver or gold embellished, umbrella shaped ornament that is attached to the bride's Chooda or bangle, which is a set of traditional white and red colored bangles worn on each arm. A Punjabi bride's wedding attire is incomplete without the resplendent Kalira, or Kalirey.
