A Balinese wedding is a rich, traditional marriage ceremony rooted in the Hindu Dharma culture of Bali, Indonesia. More than just a legal union, it’s considered a sacred spiritual rite involving complex rituals, offerings, and blessings to unite two souls, families, and communities under divine witness.

Key Aspects:
Ceremonial Processions: The wedding often includes a colorful parade (known as mewidhi widana or ngidih) where the groom's family visits the bride's house with offerings.
Traditional Attire: Both the bride and groom wear elaborate traditional Balinese costumes with gold-colored crowns, intricate fabrics, and sacred symbols.
Blessings by a Pemangku or Pandita: A Balinese priest or temple priest leads the blessing rituals to purify and spiritually bond the couple.
Sacred Offerings (Banten): Numerous floral and food offerings are prepared for ancestors and deities, ensuring harmony and prosperity for the marriage.

Cultural Meaning:
A Balinese wedding is not only a union of two individuals but a rite to maintain cosmic balance (Tri Hita Karana), preserving harmony between humans, nature, and the divine.
