Christian Biodata Format for Marriage

What Goes in a Christian Biodata for Marriage?

The first half of a Christian biodata for marriage looks like any other: name, date of birth, height, education, job and the parents' details. The second half is about the church. The other family wants to know the denomination, which parish you belong to, and sometimes which diocese.

Most families read the denomination line first. A Syro-Malabar family in Kottayam and a CSI family in Chennai both write "Christian" as the religion, but they will look at that one line to see if the families can go ahead.

There are no rasi, nakshatra or manglik lines. When you pick Christian as the Religion in our form, the horoscope section switches off by itself, so nothing about stars prints.

How to Write the Denomination

Write it the way your church writes it on its own papers. Short is fine, but be exact. "Catholic" alone leaves a Kerala family asking: Latin, Syro-Malabar or Syro-Malankara?

Our form has no separate denomination field. Type it in Caste / Community. Then open the row's three-dot menu, tap Rename and type "Denomination". The label prints the way you named it.

Some Protestant families are open to any Protestant church. If that is you, add one line at the end of About Me, such as "Open to proposals from any Protestant church". Catholic families who want a Catholic match usually write "Catholic preferred" in the same place.

Church, Parish and the Baptism Name

Open Add More Details in Personal Details and tap Church / Parish. Write the church and the town: "St. Mary's Church, Kuravilangad". If the diocese matters to your family, add it with Add Your Own Field, with Diocese as the field name.

The baptism name goes in brackets after the everyday name, only if it is different and people at church know you by it. For example, "Anju Thomas (Ancy)". Full Name takes up to 60 letters, so keep it to one extra name.

In Kerala the house name tells elders which family you are from. Add it as your own field in Family Details, named House Name, or write it with the native place: "Puthenpurackal, Pala".

The girl below is made up, and so are her parents and her parish entry. The phone number is masked.

For a boy, the same table works. Add Annual Income from Add More Details, and write the job with the company and city. A line like "Software engineer, Infosys, Mysuru" says more than "IT job".

The Cross and the Verse at the Top

The Cross is the symbol for a Christian biodata. It comes in by itself when you choose Christian as the Religion, and you can switch it off if you want a plain top.

Under the symbol there is a Blessing Line. For Christian families it offers one verse, "God is love." from 1 John 4:8 in the King James Version. On an English biodata the Blessing Line starts switched off, so turn it on if you want the verse to print.

If your family likes a different verse, choose Write My Own and type it with the reference. Three short verses from the King James Version that fit a biodata:

• "Two are better than one." Ecclesiastes 4:9
• "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing." Proverbs 18:22, for a boy's biodata
• "The Lord is my shepherd." Psalm 23:1

Some families in Tamil Nadu and Andhra simply write "Praise the Lord" at the top. That works too, with Write My Own.

Christian Biodata for a Boy or a Girl

Searches for a Christian marriage biodata format for a boy usually want the job and income wording. Write the post and the company with the city, then the yearly income if the family is comfortable sharing it. "₹9 lakh a year" is enough.

For a girl, many families put the father or a brother as Contact Person, with his Mobile Number, and keep the address to the area and city. Her photo is the family's choice. Every design has one passport-size photo box.

A divorced or widowed person can add Marital Status from Add More Details. If there are children, add one plain line in About Me.

Malayalam, Tamil or English?

Many Christian families write the biodata in English, because it often goes to relatives abroad. You can also print the labels in Malayalam, Tamil or any of the 12 languages. Type your details in English and choose the print language. The verse stays as you typed it.

The Urdu list has its own version of the 1 John 4:8 verse, written in Urdu.
