Sangeet/Pre-Wedding CelebrationSangeet/Pre-Wedding Celebration

7:30 pm - 10:30 pm

Dress to impress for a fun night on a beautiful boat! (Will not leave the dock and has elevator)

We’re kicking off the wedding weekend with an unforgettable evening on the water! Join us aboard the historic Bahia Belle Boat for our Sangeet and Welcome Celebration. A Sangeet is a joyful pre-wedding tradition from Indian culture, filled with music, dance, and lively performances celebrating the union of two families. We’ll be blending these classic elements with something a little different from Jesse’s side—Comedy! Expect dazzling Indian dance performances, spicy toasts, and plenty of laughter as our families and friends come together for the first time. With an open bar and appetizers provided, you’ll be well fueled for fun—though we politely encourage guests to enjoy dinner beforehand. This will be a night of entertainment, mingling, and celebration as we set the stage for the big day. Get ready to dance, laugh, and make memories with us! The Bahia Belle is wheelchair accessible and has an elevator. The boat will be docked and not departing on the water.
