TRINIS... what are the steps of a Hindu Weddin in Trinidad?


Travel Info
I mean Friday nite is Maticoor Nite & Saturday is Farewell Nite.. what is Sunday? Weddin & Lawa? Explain please.. Thanksssssssss

Travel Tips
First is the Lawa, which is the same as Maticoor.
Followed the Farewell bashment in which the bride is not suppose to attend because of envious person and tradition. Then, the wedding on Sunday.
And followed by, Kangan on Monday (this is the disposing of the used flowers and other puja items in the river). Wednesday, the bride returned to her parents home until the second Sunday when her husband returns to take her back. Source(s): The pundit sitting by me.
Other Travel Tips
This day (Maticoor) is Aai Budo Bhaat (farewell night)- a bachelorette party for the bride attended by women only. They talk to the bride-to-be about sex and so on. The groom has one also. On the day before the wedding is big lime. Preparations take place at both the bride's and the groom's homes where they prepare food for the festivities. Sunday is the wedding at the bride's family home. It was held in the open (in a yard) on the ground itself (under de bamboo).

(Lawa?) Laya Homa is the "offering of the blessing" that they be prosperous..

Then the go through the seven steps of the actual marriage ritual ending with the tying of the thread on the groom and the placing of the sindhoor (mark with ink) on the bride's forehead. The ceremony ends at the groom's parents house. More party.
