HALDI CEREMONY

Wedding Festivities

The Haldi ceremony is a cherished pre-wedding tradition in Indian weddings, celebrated either on the wedding day or the day before. This vibrant ritual involves applying a turmeric paste (haldi) to the bride and groom, symbolizing purification and blessings. Close family and friends gather for this intimate occasion, where they also use sandalwood powder and rose water to add to the ceremonial beauty. The atmosphere is lively with traditional drum beats, Bollywood music, and joyful dancing, creating a festive and memorable start to the wedding celebrations.

SANGEET CEREMONY

The Sangeet ceremony, meaning “sung together” in Sanskrit, is a lively pre-wedding celebration primarily in North Indian weddings. Traditionally, it was a female-only event organized by the bride and groom’s families, featuring singing, dancing, and playful teasing. Today, the Sangeet has evolved to include both families and often features choreographed performances to popular Bollywood songs. The event is marked by vibrant attire and high-energy dance, making it a highlight of the wedding festivities.

MEHNDI CEREMONY

The Mehndi ceremony is a beautiful and joyous pre-wedding ritual held a day before the wedding. This ceremony involves applying intricate henna designs to the bride’s hands and feet, a tradition that signifies beauty and auspiciousness. The event is typically a lively gathering of the bride’s closest family and friends, filled with music, dance, and laughter. Often held outdoors, the Mehndi ceremony is a fun-filled celebration that brings everyone together for a day of bonding and enjoyment.
