Kerala is a small south-Indian state on the Arabian sea side of

the Indian peninsula, of which nairs are a part of its population.

In rest of India marriage is accompanied by vedic rituals. One can

find priests to perform these vedic marriage rituals in hindu

temples in US. Shakta wedding = Hindu wedding. By hindu wedding is

meant, any one of them with its regional variations with the vedic

ritual being central.
