At the wedding in Nepal, the bride will apply a special ointment, which is made of Himalayan tea seed oil and a local herb called Deccan. This custom originated in ancient Nepal, meaning to wish the newlyweds happiness and grow old together.
In the wedding ceremony, the bride will apply this ointment, which is an important traditional ceremony and represents the blessing to the bride. In addition, weddings in Nepal also include many other traditional customs, such as ceremonies to celebrate happiness.
In this ceremony, the father held the little bride in his lap, grabbed his daughter's thumb, and the mother poured water into their hands, indicating that her daughter was protected by the patron saint, which was also a blessing from her parents. There is a foot washing ceremony in front of the door, and the mother-in-law washes the bride's feet, which indicates the beginning of a new life journey. At the same time, a pair of silver anklets were presented to the bride and put on for her to show her love.
