Maharashtra wedding tradition rituals #5

What Sankalp ceremony signifies?

Sankalp ceremony is basically the announcement of marriage on the wedding day itself. Previously in the earlier days, this event was done a day before marriage but nowadays, Sankalp Ceremony is done on the wedding day itself which is the new change.  Ganesh puja is also done as lord Ganesh removes all problems or hurdles and without lord Ganesh blessing this ceremony is incomplete.

In short, the parents of bride and groom declare the marriage in their own places. This announcement of marriage is witness by pandit who gives his blessing to bride and groom. The commencement of marriage begins after this ceremony.
