About Hindu believes that life consists of 5 basic elements which are
water earth sky fire wind. So in the Hindu wedding, there are 5 ceremonies worshiping this elements.

At the end when groom is supposed to give sacred neclace to bride both of them walk around this fire for 7 times(7 times cause in earlier days only 7 planets in solar system were considered) and Fire represents Sun source of energy. It's like keeping all of them as wintnesses and then they promise to support each other forever and ask for their blessings in journey thereafter.

Thanks Vijay for this explanation.

yeah, exactly Vijay, I can remember the 7 times walking around. That's really interesting. To be honest, there were so many rituals going on over there and I was completely new to all these concepts. even though I tried my best not to misunderstand anything, it seems I missed something. Thanks for your nice and complete explanation my friend :)
all the best,
Maryam

good shot, Hindu is not a religion its way of living life, one has liberty to choose ones faith and beliefs. It belives that life revolves and consists of 5 basic elements which are
water earth sky fire wind.

If u attend a hindu wedding, there are 5 ceremonies worshipping this elements.

At end whnen groom is supposed to give sacred neclace to bride both of them walk around this fire for 7 times(7 times cause in earlier days only 7 planets in solar system were considered) and Fire represents Sun source of energy for us.

So its like keeping all of them as wintnesses and then they promise they will support each other forever and ask for there blessings in journey thereafter.
