IdontWantDowry.com is India's first matrimonial website for dowry-free marriages. The website was launched on April 2, 2006, by Nalini Chidambaram, a senior high court advocate in Chennai. Despite being outlawed in 1961, the dowry system has continued to survive in some social castes. IdontWantDowry.com attempts to create a meeting place for brides and grooms who want to marry without a dowry. As of 2017, IdontWantDowry.com has more than 5,500 members, and 29 couples have married through the website.
