Question

Am I required to wear a mask?

Answer

Our friends' and family's health and safety is our number one priority. We are requiring mask use for guests when they are not eating or drinking, given the current situation. All of our on-site wedding vendors will be wearing masks as well. Hand sanitizing stations will be set up throughout the venue to ensure proper hygiene. Please practice good hand hygiene after touching surfaces and feel free to bring your own hand sanitizer if desired.

Yes! There will be shuttles that leave the hotel at 2:00PM. Please ensure that you are on time for these shuttles. If you do miss these shuttles, you may have to drive to the venue or Uber. There will be one shuttle that will leave the wedding venue at 9:00PM at the end of the evening. You can choose to take this shuttle if you wish to end the night early.

Question

What is a baraat?

Answer

The baraat is the groom's procession as he arrives to the scene of the wedding. For this, the groom arrives with family & friends, dancing to music and the beat of a dhol, an Indian drum. After that, the bride's family greets the groom and groom's family in what is known as a milni, prior to walking down the aisle to the mandap, or wedding pergola. Traditionally only the groom's side dances during the Baraat, but we encourage guests from both sides to join Joe.
