Arya Samaj marriages are distinguished by their simplicity and adherence to Vedic principles. These ceremonies are devoid of extravagance, focusing instead on the spiritual aspect of the union. The rituals performed are based on the teachings of Swami Dayanand Saraswati, the founder of Arya Samaj, and include the recitation of Vedic hymns that are explained to the couple in an understandable dialect. This ensures that the couple grasps the significance of the mantras and their relevance to married life. Furthermore, Arya Samaj supports inter-religious and inter-caste marriages, reflecting its progressive outlook.
