Can I participate in the ceremony in real time from a different time zone?

Yes. We schedule ceremonies with time zone differences in mind. For families in North America (UTC-5 to UTC-8), ceremonies are typically scheduled in the early morning Indian time (5-7 AM IST) which corresponds to evening in the USA/Canada. For families in Australia and East Asia, morning IST ceremonies are perfectly timed. We confirm the exact timing with each family during the booking process and can generally accommodate your preferred window within a 2-3 day flexibility.
