Shiva
Shiva was initially married to Devi Sati, daughter of Prajpati Daksa, in a Swayamwar Ceremony. Prajpati Daksa was not happy with the marriage, as he didn't considered Shiva as a valued husband for her daughter. Soon Devi Sati consumed herself, at the Yagna Place, orgnaised by her father Prajpati Daksa.


 * Once Prajpati Daksa organized a huge yagna, where all the important devas, asuras, gandharvas, kinnaras, and sages were invited.  However Shiva was ignored from the list of invitees, as Prajpati considered him worthless, be-smeared with ashes and holding a trishula.  . When Devi Sati, argued with her father Prajpati Daksa, why Shiva was not invited,, he humiliated Shiva by spelling mis-words for Shiva. Raged Sati could not take this humiliation of Shiva, cursed Prajpati Daksa (that he shall be killed by Shiva) and then gave her life by jumping into the fire at the yagna place.

Later, Devi Sati was reborn as Parvati to the Himalaya (considered as King of all mountains). Shiva marriage was then organised with devi Parvati. The saptrarishis took the proposal of Shiva to Parvati's parents. Shiva riding on his bull, shiva-ganas, and deva became the baratis. Brahma became the pujari for Marriage.

Thereafter, Pravati became wife of Shiva for eternity.

Ceremony and rites as held for Shiva and Parvati have became the procedure and custom for Hindu Marriages.
