Marriage is a sacred and meaningful union between two people who have selected their partners through matrimonial services or traditional ways. Most people nowadays are lost in the intimate details and wonderment of wedding themes, decorations, and other things that lost the religious significance of wedding ceremonies, traditions, and celebrations.
If you want to reflect your religious faith and value in your wedding rituals, then understand the true importance of marriage and confirming your union before God. Implement the following tips to add religious elements to your wedding traditions and respect spiritual beliefs.
1. Décor
Incorporate your Holy book or favorite excerpts that speak to you as a couple about the sacredness of marriage and relationship. You can place it next to your regular guest book and ask your guests to highlight and sign their favorite verse or quote from a religious text. It will connect you with your guests on a religious level.
2. Jewelry
Another way to add religious elements to your wedding day is through jewelry. No matter whether you are wearing an engagement ring, bridal set wedding band, or other ornament, you can prefer religious jewelry that symbolizes your religious faith. A necklace with a pendant or a locket that opens up to show a scripture verse or a prayer can be incorporated.
3. Photography
Add your faith through your wedding photography. Perform religious traditions and rituals like Ganesh Puja, Gauri Puja, lighting a lamp, etc. based on your religion, and ask your photographer to capture those special moments.
4. Worship Songs or Prayer
Incorporate your favorite worship song, hymns, or prayer in the wedding ceremonies as background music when you both are walking down the aisle or guests are being seated. Add the words so that guests who are not aware of the words can also experience it all. Add an intimate touch to a prayer or any worship song during the reception.
5. Invite a Religious Member of Your Community
Invite a local religious member like a Priest, Minister, Iman, or Rabbi based on your religious community to your celebrant-led wedding service. Ask them to start or end the traditions or rituals with their prayer.
The most important factor is to find the right partner who perfectly aligns with you in incorporating religious elements into your wedding functions. Wedgate Matrimony provides profiles of brides and grooms from various backgrounds, castes, and religions.
