Breakfast starts at 9:00 AM and will conclude by 10:00 AM. Attendance is optional. If you would like to join, please make sure to note as so in the RSVP. Part 1 will start at 9:30 AM and conclude by 10:45 AM. Attendance to this portion of the ceremony is optional. If you would like to join, please make sure to note as so in the RSVP. Part 2 will begin promptly at 11:00 AM, with the Bride and Groom entrances. We ask that everyone is present for this portion of the ceremony, please arrive by 10:50 AM at the latest.
We'll start at 6 pm with cocktail hour leading into the reception and dinner at 7 pm. You will have a ~4 hour break between the wedding ceremony and the reception to relax, change and explore Metro-Detroit.
As the morning ceremony will contain religious rituals modest attire is suggested. As the evening reception will be a celebration of the newlyweds, with dancing and drinks flowing, we suggest cocktail attire. For both the morning and evening events suits, kurtas, saris, lenghas and dresses are appropriate.
Indian attire is not a requirement - formal attire will work just fine! If you still want to try some traditional Indian wear, we recommend: www.cbazaar.com or www.kalkifashion.com
Your RSVP invite mentions the quantity of guests invited. Please reference the quantity listed. If none were listed other than yourself, we'd prefer if it was just you.
For the morning wedding ceremony, please feel free to bring your children. The more the merrier! For the evening reception, we respectfully request no children under the age of 5.
