Oh...i don't have any clue of the present charges.only thing i can say is it will be above 2500.you can contact NIMMY SHERIEF of la femme(Thekke madom road, tcr)
or
MINI of BEAUTY TOUCH.(near thiruvambady temple, patturaikkal)
if you want these chief beautitions to be your beautition on the D-DAY , make prior appointment with them too.Mini of Beauty touch is really a nice person to approach.
all the best!

| | Anyone got married in Guruvayur Temple?
Hi All:
Does anybody in our forum got married in guruvayur temple? or attended a marriage there?
Can you explain how was that experience?
I am actually a tamilian getting married to mallu. We r getting married in guruvayur this yr aug 27th. This is the first time our family is having/attending a marriage in guruvayur temple.
We heard it will be like express marriage.. we dont get much time.. thalikettu and garland exchange..and thats it..
i am more excited abt this.. and it is like a suspense for me to imagine how it will be..
checked in google for pictures of the mantapa in temple.. just got one pic..
is it on the way to temple.. where even people who r gng for temple passes that way or is it a separate place for weddings?
any interesting information/incidents are welcome..
By the way anyone getting married same day in guruvayur?? it will be very interesting..
Regards,
AVM

Hi AVM, first of all congratulations and wish you Happy Married life!
My cousin's marriage took place in Guruvayur Temple 5 years back (bridegroom's parents had an wish to god when he was born that they will perform his marriage there) so it happened there but not every one will be allowed into the temple only elders that to parents were along with them.
Marriage was performed nicely but it will be little jaldi fast type and simple one becuase so many people will be getting marriage same time but hope we should not see all that because its taking place in front of God and its lucky.. i think there wont be anu mantapa but will perfome in open place but that time seperate for marraiges only!

AVM,
Congrats! It is very auspiscious to get married in Guruvayoor. Though not right in front of Guruvayoorappan, the weddings become very special and blessed. Yes, all Mallu marriages are fast and Guruvayoor weddings faster. These days an elective parctise is followed by brides getting married in front of Guruvayoorappan. They wear the Kerala mundu, but with no zari, just plain colour border. And no jewellery except tulasi malai. This is to show humility and piety in front of God.
Please note that this trend though catching up big time is entirely optional, and subject to approval from the groom's family. After this, the couple have a reception where they make up for the simplicity wearing all the gold, and gold zari mundus.
Lucky you! Getting married in Guruvayoor. It is a desire that all of us Mallus cherish, but few attain it. A great start to a married life.
Remember to worship in Mammiyoor, where the AbhayaMudra of Sati fell. The Grace there is Gowri Shankara, again very auspiscious for newly weds.

hai avm
congrats and wishes for your wedding
my marriage was in guruvayoor.you are right it is little bit faster.
in guruvayoor there are three mandapas which are onthe way to temle and you can see the long que of brides and grooms
if you watch the film NANDANAM you can see the temple and mandapas and the function of marriage very clearly
consider it as a luck to get a great start to your life infront of guruvayoorappan
