The Zoroastrian wedding ceremony, known as 'Ashiemand,' is rich in symbolism and ancient traditions. Central to the ceremony is the 'pavessa,' a ritual that involves the couple being blessed with sacred fire, emphasizing purity and the divine connection between the couple and Ahura Mazda, the supreme deity. The incorporation of symbolic items, such as a decorated table known as the 'kashk,' suggests a connection to rich cultural traditions. The wedding showcases the profound importance of ethical values and the commitment to lead a harmonious life together rooted in Zoroastrian principles.
