The groom is accompanied by his family and friends to the wedding venue. Music and dancing sets the mood for the celebration of his arrival. He is then welcomed by the bride’s parents and her family to start the ceremony!

The mother of the bride welcomes the groom (Bor) with a Boron Dala (the welcoming tray) which is a decorative cane tray containing auspicious ingredients like rice, turmeric, betel nuts, paan leaves, a cluster of bananas and a lighted diya. She blesses the groom by touching the Boron dala to his forehead, shoulders, chest and knees, feeds him with a sweet. He is now ready to proceed to the mandap.
