The people of India usually have Hindu ceremonies for their weddings, and this is exactly what the woman wanted on the day of her marriage with the cobra. With this, she got what she wanted: a Hindu wedding, complete with priests and all, you know. The wedding was done at the Orissa state, a village somewhere near the capital Bhubaneswar. If you don't find this weird, I think you could easily tell me what the priests were thinking when they married the couple.
