Marriage Biodata Examples, Section by Section
The quickest way to write a good biodata is to read a few good ones. Below are complete examples — and the individual lines that make them work — for the sections people actually struggle with: the About, the family details, and partner preferences. Adapt anything here to your own biodata.

Notice what both examples do: every claim is specific, the religious details match how each family actually lives, and nothing is padded. On Riishta, the form adapts the same way — the fields follow your religion, and anything left blank stays off the page.
About-section lines you can adapt
- “Software engineer by profession, cook by enthusiasm — my biryani has family approval, my code has fewer reviews.”
- “Quiet until the topic is books or cricket. I value routines: morning walks, work done well, Sunday calls with grandparents.”
- “Teaching is my profession and my nature — patient, organised, and good with people of every age.”
- “Ambitious about work, old-fashioned about family — I want both dinner-table laughter and a growing career.”
Partner-preference lines that sound human
- “Someone who values honesty and can laugh at a bad day — city and profession matter less than temperament.”
- “An educated, working partner who wants us both to keep growing; willing to relocate for the right match.”
- “A practising, family-oriented match; we'd like the families to feel like one home, not two camps.”
Do this, avoid that
Do
- Write the About in your own voice, then read it aloud once
- Keep one line per family member — who, what, where
- State age, height, education and city where they're found at a glance
- Use one good recent photo you actually like
Avoid
- Stock phrases — “homely”, “well-settled”, “broad-minded” — with nothing behind them
- Preference lists that read like eligibility criteria
- Ten-year-old or heavily filtered photos
- Cramming two pages of detail into what should be one
