A traditional Indian wedding ritual was used to remarry a couple 30 years after their demise.Pretha Kalyanam, or “marriage of the dead,” is a custom practised in India’s Kerala and Karnataka where those who passed away before birth remarry.
The locals consider this practise to be a means of honouring the spirits.An explanation of the entire ceremony was posted on YouTube, and all the specifics were tweeted.”Today I’m going to a wedding. Why it merits a tweet may be a question. The groom is actually deceased. Also deceased is the bride. similar to thirty years ago. Today, they are still married.”
The entire wedding proceeds as usual. The families, however, substitute sculptures for actual people.The wedding is not depressing even though the bride and groom are deceased. It is observed similarly to other traditional weddings.
