This is an image of the performance of the rituals in a traditional Sri Lankan wedding which is also referred to as the ' Poruwa (the stage) ceremony'. these rituals are performed by the bride, groom and their family. Prior to the arrival of Buddhism in Sri Lanka in the third century BC, it appears that the Poruwa rite was practiced in. Up until the British began requiring legal marriage registration in 1870, the Poruwa ceremony served as an acceptable custom for registering weddings. Both the upcountry and low country traditions of Sri Lanka have had an impact on the Poruwa ceremonial of today.
