Mehendi

6:00 pm - 11:00 pm

Mehendi dress or Summer sun dress

The Mehendi is a pre-wedding ceremony focused on beautification. It has been described as “the world’s first bridal shower,” and celebrates the application of henna on the bride’s hands and feet while relatives and close friends feast and party. Female guests also have henna applied to take part in the celebration. Traditionally, the Mehendi is a female-only event but modern times see not only the groom and male guests attending, but henna sometimes being applied to them as well.

Sangeet

Sangeet dress or Colorful semi-formal dress

Get ready to dance! “Sangeet” means “songs” or “music” and is a form of celebration of the wedding to come, solely conducted to relish in the happiness and joy surrounding the couple. This celebration includes dances and songs performed by relatives and friends of the bride and groom, and an open dance floor to commemorate the festivities for the following days. The premise of the Sangeet is not only to rejoice but acts as a social bond to join the families so that they familiarize themselves with one another prior to the big day.
