Mangalorean Catholic Matrimony
Mangalorean Catholics are the Konkani-speaking Catholics of coastal Karnataka - Mangaluru, Udupi and the towns and villages of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts - with large families in Mumbai, Bengaluru and the Gulf.
Many matches are made between a family on the coast and a son or daughter working in Dubai, Kuwait, Mumbai or Bengaluru, so a search often has to cross cities and countries.
From Roce to the church
The night before the wedding, families gather for the Roce - the bride and groom, each at home, are anointed with coconut milk and oil while the elders sing the old Konkani wedding songs. The wedding itself is in church after the banns are read in the parish, followed by the reception and, for many, the traditional wedding feast.
How MilanKnot fits Mangalorean Catholic families
Christian profiles have a Faith section instead of horoscope fields, including how often the person attends church. Set Konkani as mother tongue, Mangalorean Catholic as community, and add Mangaluru, Udupi, Mumbai, Bengaluru or a Gulf city to where you are looking.
Parents in Mangaluru can manage the profile for a son or daughter abroad, and every photo is checked before others see it.

Is there kundli matching for Catholic profiles?
No - Christian profiles have a Faith section instead, so families match on how they practise their faith.
