Biya Naam is the main wedding ceremony
The Biya Naam, a pivotal and revered ceremony in Assamese weddings, stands as the crowning moment where the couple embarks on a profound journey of togetherness and shared dreams. Set before the sanctified holy fire, this ceremony transforms into an enchanting tableau of love, commitment, and spirituality. As the couple takes their seats, surrounded by the warmth of the flames and the blessings of their families, they exchange vows that transcend the boundaries of words.
As the flames dance before them, the couple's vows reverberate with the echoes of generations past and generations yet to come. The holy fire becomes a medium through which they connect with their ancestors, seeking their blessings and channeling their collective wisdom. The Biya Naam reinforces the sacredness of the institution of marriage, reminding the couple that they are now bound by a promise that transcends time, encompassing both the temporal and the eternal.
The couple, seated before the holy fire, not only pledge their devotion to each other but also pledge to foster an environment of love and support, nurturing the flames of their relationship just as the holy fire burns bright and constantly.
