@Appy dear... I think its the whole process. Cant point out a single ritual.
If we think logically its weird. Yes. How can putting colored powder in someone's maang makes you married ? Or a simple boack small pearls jewellery prooves that you are married ? How can taking some vows decide everything ? How can circling around agni can certify your marriage ? But these are nothing just rituals. Sort of certificate needed by society. License. Marriage is as said is the combining of two hearts, souls. These rituals are just to make the process more promising, pure, pious and religious. Or say this way you feel that you have promised God that you will be together with the person you have chosen and you feel responsible, lively 😳

appy according to vedic marriage three things are necessary to complete a marriage

varmala - garland exchange
seven pheras
sindoor daan...

rest all thing like mangalsutra ..kanyadaan...various rituals n games are confined to diff community and regions..but the above three things are common in all hindu marriages of any state or region.
so if only these three things are performed its considered a complete marriage...rest all rituals are secondary
one more thing hindu marriage has to be done in presence of witnesses...without them its considered gandharv vivahEdited by nniks - 11 years ago

supriya  i think there are different custom in different regions . in our region seven phere around the fire is necessary and after that sindoordan takes place.in between there  are many other rasams.
in 1st four pheras groom leads the way then for last three pheras bride takes his place.this too is symbolic.

I 'll rephrase the question.Which is 100 % essential?Phere or the mangalsutr/shindoor.

I am asking this because when it was proven that JG marriage has no legal standing but their suuporteers insited that because J put sindhoor and they exchanged garlands they are married in the eyes of God.And I can't remember the pheres in that wedding.

Can anyone tell me what it takes to call them married - Is it the saat phere or rasams(this includes sindhoor and manfgal sutr)

Can it be called a wedding if the man just puts sindhoor on the woman's maang?

Piya youareright all of them are rituals the vows are the most important thing because they arepromisingother person that they will be there for him/her at all times. Sindhoor mangalsutr are like just used to seal the promise that has been made.But I alwasys find it strange that people give so much importance to sindhoor and mangalsutr thing during the weddings and not about the phere/vows.

Who cares about vows ? Infact people now request pandits to refrain them for the sake of their convenience!
Thats why i dont like this concept of marriage. Total faltu. When you are not understanding the meaning of every vow and applying in your life genuinely then why doing this nautanki and fooling God ?
