 Before leaving for the wedding venue, the groom is blessed by his mother and he formally seeks her permission to begin a new life with his soon-to-be "better half".The groom's mother in a muslim wedding leaves along with the groom and takes him to the Bride's house.However, in contrast in muslim ceremonies the groom's mother presents the bride with jewellery and sarees and then she goes to change into her wedding saree and jewellery.
