FAQs
Question
What is a baraat?
Answer
Kevin's grand entrance! Traditionally, the groom arrives at the wedding venue in a grand procession, riding a horse, elephant or fancy car, and accompanied by music and his dancing family and friends. When the groom's procession arrives to the ceremony site, the bride's family welcomes them, a celebration uniting both families in a moment of joy and togetherness.
Question
Can I bring kids?
Answer
Children are welcome to all Friday events and the Catholic wedding ceremony on Saturday. Unfortunately, due to limited venue space, we are unable to accommodate small children at the reception on Saturday night.

Suits, dresses, and your favorite wedding garb! For Friday, Indian weddings are colorful and vibrant and we’d love to see you in Indian attire if you’re interested.
