Description
English: The Kanyadhan tradition is a significant ritual in Hindu weddings where the bride's parents ceremonially offer their daughter's hand in marriage to the groom. "Kanya" refers to the daughter, and "dhan" means donation or gift. This ritual symbolizes the parents' acceptance of the groom as their daughter's husband and signifies their trust in him to care for and support their daughter throughout their married life. It is a deeply emotional moment, marked by blessings and well wishes from the bride's family to the newlywed couple as they begin their journey together.
