Arya Samaj Mandir Marriage in Delhi — Same Day

An Arya Samaj marriage is a simple Vedic ceremony performed at an Arya Samaj Mandir, based on the reform principles of Maharshi Dayanand Saraswati. Instead of elaborate, expensive rituals, the wedding is solemnised through a havan and the seven vows of saptapadi, with mantras explained in plain Hindi so the couple understands every promise they make.

Because the Arya Samaj rejects caste and dowry, it has long been the preferred route for inter-caste, love and runaway couples in Delhi who want a dignified, fast and affordable wedding. The mandir issues an Arya Samaj marriage certificate the same day. To turn this into full government proof, the marriage is then registered at the SDM office under the Hindu Marriage Act 1955 — and that is the part most couples find confusing, which is exactly where our Delhi team takes over.

Couples in Delhi often ask which route is faster. An Arya Samaj marriage is a religious Vedic ceremony solemnised the same day, after which you register at the SDM under the Hindu Marriage Act 1955. A court marriage under the Special Marriage Act 1954 involves no ceremony but requires a 30-day public notice before the certificate is issued.

If you and your partner are both Hindu, Sikh, Jain or Buddhist and want to marry quickly, the Arya Samaj route is usually faster. If either partner is of a different religion and neither wishes to undergo shuddhi, the Special Marriage Act court route is the appropriate path. Not sure which fits you?
