Once the bride and the groom are on the Poruwa, a master of ceremonies begins reading Ashtaka blessings and instructs the couple on the various rituals of exchanging betel leaves and the wedding rings. The groom also dons his bride with a necklace after which their fingers are tied in a white thread by male relatives from either side and water is poured on the “binding” from an ornate utensil. Thanksgiving gifts are also handed to the couple’s parents as young girls dressed in traditional garbs sing “Jayamangala Gatha”. After stepping down from the Poruwa the couple join their guests in a feast which includes Kiribath and traditional sweetmeats such as Kevum and Kokis.
