 Kerala Matrimony and Matchmaking in Kerala:
Keralites or Malayalis still follow the traditional modes of matchmaking. Since it is still the parents and even the extended family which looks for a suitable alliance for the bride or groom, The photos and details such as educational qualifications, interests etc are exchanged. Rather than the individual compatibility of the bride and groom, family status and financial soundness are considered. Once there is a family consensus on the general background of the bride/groom the marriage discussions proceed. Often, horoscope matching plays a very important part, especially in  Hindu families. This is a very significant feature of matchmaking as girls with afflictions in their horoscopes such as the infamous Mangalik dosha/ Kuja dosha (Afflicted mars) etc find it very difficult to get a suitable alliance. Once a high degree of astrological compatibility is found (7-8 of the 10 aspects) the families get ready to meet the prospective bride/groom.very soon kerala matrimony and shaadi services launching soon. 

Marriage Rituals:
Christian Marriages In Kerala: Christian marriages in Kerala are held in the church as is done globally.

The groom wears a formal suit. A veil and tiara are worn by the bride and she is handed a bouquet of flowers by the groom's best man. The bride is led down the aisle by her father or some close male relative who gives the bride away. The priest there receives the couple and a wedding mass is held with renditions from the Bible and hymns are sung. The pries then delivers a speech on the sanctity of the sacred institution the couple will be entering, on the virtues of abiding by the vows and the importance of love, care and adjustments. This is called the Homily. Homily over, the priest blesses the rings and they are exchanged. The couple vow to stay in love and be loyal and helpful to each other as long as they live. A final blessing is received by the couple from the priest as man and wife are which the couple sign the wedding register at the church. The guests shower blessings, flower petals and rice as the newly weds walk out the church. A reception is usually held later at the bride's maternal home and cake cutting and easting is in order.

Muslim Marriages In Kerala: A traditional Muslim marriage in Kerala starts with the arrival of the Baraat, where the groom arrives with an entourage. Family and musicians accompany him. This is a cheerful episode and the bride's sisters are allowed to play pranks on the groom. Earlier during the day a Mehr (nuptial gift), usually in the form of cash is decided by the elders of the family. The Maulvi or priest performs the marriage. Portions from the Quaran are read and the nuptial contract is prepared. This is offered by the room and consented to by the bride. This ritual is known as the Ijab-e-Qubul. The Mehr is a compulsory gift and is then given to the bride's family. The Nikkahnama or the document of this agreement is signed by the couple, their fathers and the Maulvi or Mullah and registered. There is feasting and singing and the couple are allowed to see each others faces through a mirror. A prayer for their marital bliss is also conducted. The bride is then given the Vidaai or an emotional farewell by her family and friends.

Hindu Marriages In Kerala: In the yesteryears, Kerala saw a strange system of Nambodiri men marrying Nair women in a casual marriage called Sambandham. This resulted from the dictate that only the eldest Namboodiri son could marry intra caste. However this system soon saw a decline and now all Namboodiri boys marry intra caste.

Namboodiri Marriage Rituals: The Namboodiri weddings are most elaborate and traditionally spanned a period of about 4 days but in modern times are completed in a single day. A number of significant rituals are followed. The sacred fire is lit and Vedic mantras are chanted by a number of Brahmins. The tying of the sacred Taali (yellow thread with a golden pendent) is the highlight of the marriage. The giving away of the bride is usually don't by the bride's father and it is an emotional moment as he gives her hand into the groom's and washes his off (panigrahanam) signifying that he gives away his daughter and she no longer belongs to his gotra and family. There is the exchange of garlands before proceeding to the saptapadhi. The groom holds his wife's toes and walks her 7 steps to the grinding stone. They also take seven rounds of the sacred fire and make vows of everlasting loyalty and responsibility towards each other. The bride then throws puffed rice into the fire. The couple then seeks the blessings of all the elders and then a feast called the Sadya is organized.

 Nair Marriage Rituals: Nair marriages are simple and hold much more social significance than religious. On the auspicious day, the bride's family welcomes the groom and is entourage at the venue of the wedding to the notes of the Nadaswaram (a long horn like instrument) and Tavil (drums). The groom is accorded a special welcome by the bride's brother who washes his feet and garlands him. He is then escorted to the canopied stage (mandapam) by girls holding auspicious symbols such as a sacred oil lamp, the 'ashtamangalya', a plate holding mirror, bell, vermilion box, and a 'kindi' or water container with a spout. This mandapam is decorated with flower garlands, palm fronds and small plantain trees. The bride then arrives in a splendid silk saree and at the ascertained hour (muhurtham) the groom ties the taali or the sacred thread around her neck. This is a yellow thread with a golden pendent signifying the marital status of a woman. Then garlands are exchanged by the bride and groom. She is now gifted a silk saree and jewelry by her husband and in-laws. Traditionally marriage over the Nair woman would go back to her Tarawad, her matrilineal home but nowadays she accompanies her husband to his household. She enters her marital home right foot forward by kicking over a large measure of paddy signifying the prosperity and plenty she brings with her. A reception is usually held with social gathering and feasting. 

With the progress in mindsets legal registrations of marriages are common and such a measure is encouraged by the government of kerala..
