Marriage biodata format
A marriage biodata, also written bio data, is the one-page profile a family sends before a match meeting in India. It names the person, the parents, the education, and the work, and it usually includes a photograph and a phone number. Bio data and biodata are the same document. Neither word means a résumé.
What a biodata includes
Families expect the same blocks, whatever the religion or the city. Leave a block out only when it does not apply. A missing phone number or a missing photo is the usual reason a biodata is sent back.
| Block | What to write |
|---|---|
| Person | Name, date of birth, height, religion, mother tongue, marital status |
| Photo | A clear head-and-shoulders photograph, not a group picture |
| Family | Father, mother, brothers, sisters, and what each of them does |
| Education and work | Degree, college, job title, and city of work |
| Native place | Hometown and where the family lives now |
| Contact | The phone number and email the other family should use |
How to make the biodata
- Open WebiSheet and choose a marriage biodata template. There are 50, including Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Sikh, Jain, and regional layouts.
- Add the photo and the family fields. The template already has a place for each block above.
- Publish when the family has read it. Copy the link into WhatsApp, or save the PDF for a printed copy.
The family that receives the link opens it in their browser. They do not install WebiSheet. A draft stays private until you publish it, so parents can check the spellings first.
