How to write a marriage biodata that families actually read
A marriage biodata is the first impression you make on another family, usually before anyone has spoken. It should answer the questions they have in the first minute: who you are, what you do, and who your family is, on one clean page with a good photo.
This Biodata Maker gives you a sensible starting structure (personal details, education and career, family, and contact) that you can change completely. It is made by and for the Kashmiri Pandit community, so fields like gotra are included, but it works for any marriage biodata.
What to include
- Personal details
- Name, date, time and place of birth, height, gotra and community. Add rashi or nakshatra if your family uses them.
- Education and career
- Highest qualification with the institution, current role and employer, and city. Income is optional; many people now leave it for a later conversation.
- Family
- Parents with their occupations, and siblings (for example, 'One younger brother, MBBS intern'). Add grandparents if you like.
- Contact
- Present address, native place, and the phone number of whoever is handling the conversations, usually a parent.
Tips for a strong biodata
- Use a recent, well-lit photo with a plain background, taken at eye level. Avoid heavy filters and group photos.
- Keep it to one page. Families skim; a crowded page is harder to take in.
- Be specific: 'Product Manager, PixelRings, Noida' says more than 'Working in IT'.
- Spell names consistently, and double-check dates and phone numbers before sharing.
- Share an image on WhatsApp for a first look, and send the PDF when someone wants to print it.
Biodata or kalawali?
Within the Kashmiri Pandit community, many families also expect a kalawali: a more detailed family biodata covering both the parental and maternal sides. If that's what the other family has asked for, use the Kalawali Maker; it has the traditional fields ready.

Frequently asked questions
What should a marriage biodata include?
Personal details (name, date and place of birth, height), education and occupation, family details (parents and siblings with occupations) and contact information. A photo is strongly recommended.
Should I mention income in my biodata?
It's optional. Some families expect it; many people now prefer to discuss it later. Leave the field empty and it won't be printed.
What is the best format for a biodata: PDF or image?
Use both: an image for a quick look on WhatsApp, and a PDF when the family wants to print or forward it.
Can I edit my biodata later?
Yes. Your draft stays saved in this browser. To edit on another device, use File → Save editable file and open it there.
Can I convert my old biodata into this format?
Yes. Use 'Import PDF or photo' to fill the form from an existing biodata, then check each field.
Is my information uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. Everything you type is saved only in your own browser on your device, and the PDF and image are created on your device too. There are no accounts, and nothing is sent to our servers.
