Please Log inPrior to the actual wedding, there's a gathering called the Sangeet or Garba (depending on the regional background). Family and friends will come together to sing, dance, and revel in the joy of the upcoming union. There will be performances, dancing, food, and drinks!
Optional: Breakfast
There will be a light breakfast with coffee and tea starting at 8:15 am before the Baraat.
Part 1: Baraat 9:15 AM
A Baraat is a celebratory wedding procession for the groom, involving live music and dancing. While it does not hold religious significance, it is an important custom nonetheless. It is one of the key highlights of the main wedding day and takes place before the traditional vow exchange.
Part 2: Wedding Ceremony 10:00 AM
A Hindu ceremony has many steps that are guided by the Priest, along with the help of immediate family members. Guests will watch as the Bride and Groom tie the knot. During the ceremony, there will be a pamphlet to explain the steps as they occur.
Part 3: Lunch 11:30 AM
Following the ceremony, there will be lunch for all of the guests in an adjoining room.
