Indians, especially Gujaratis are obsessed with sweets, and they always have a box in their house to eat at dinner and share with guests. Lots of the sweets are made with cashew nuts, kesar flavoring, coconut, pistacios, and figs. I am not a big fan of them, but it is necessary to eat them almost every day.
This is a group of women doing Puja before a marriage to their caste god of vishnu.
One of the traditions of this particular family is for the parents to buy the bride all new clothes, jewelery, bedding, and other items to take with her to her new family.
