Outdoor photo of a wedding-style ceremony beside a grey stone temple pillar with carved figures and a red cloth hanging behind. A long-haired man in a saffron-orange dhoti and wrap, with white and red flower garlands, points at the red and yellow flower garland he holds. Beside him stands a man in white shirt and trousers with white and red garlands, a rudraksha mala, a gold wristwatch and a yellow tilak on his forehead, holding a flower garland. A woman in an orange silk sari with red border, gold bangles, a jasmine hair ornament and a white and red flower garland stands at right, holding flowers. Another person in red stands at the far right edge, and a partly visible person in pale floral clothing is at the left edge. The long-haired man matches the page's claim of a person attending, but the appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
