Varmala Traditional Indian Flower Garlands

“At the start, we exchanged flower garlands called Varmala,” Samantha says. “These are done to proclaim our acceptance of each other and symbolize our commitment to share each other’s happiness and burdens.” The flower garlands were very colorful to match the traditional, colorful Indian wedding color palette.
