Overview

Tilak Ceremony (Phaldan) for families in Kedar Ghat

The Tilak ceremony is one of the most important pre wedding rituals in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and among many Hindi speaking families. The men of the bride's family, usually her brother and father, visit the groom's home and apply tilak on his forehead, accepting him into the family.

Kedar Ghat is one of the most recognisable ghats in south Varanasi, with its distinctive painted steps and the Kedareshwar Shiva temple above it. The ghat is a popular place for a morning Ganga snan, and it is busy but less hectic than the central ghats.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Traditional vivaha mantra

Planning Your Puja in Kedar Ghat

Tell us your family's tradition and preferred language, such as Tamil, Telugu or Kannada, when you enquire.
Vehicles usually stop short of the ghat, so expect a short walk through lanes.
Early mornings are the best time for snan and riverside sankalp.
Sawan Mondays and Kartik bring heavy crowds; plan early.
Guest houses run for pilgrims may have their own rules about havans, so ask first.
