Common Questions

What is a Sangeet? What is Mehndi?

The word “Sangeet “ means music, but when it is used as a term to describe a celebratory event during an Indian wedding it translates to Music Night or Musical party.

This musical night is a celebration of the union of not only the couple but the bonding of both families. It’s usually held a day before the wedding.

Henna is a very important part of the sangeet night, it’s the night when guests are given an opportunity to dive into the culturally rich art form of henna or traditionally called mehndi/mehendi.

Henna is a traditional form of natural herbal body art, which stains the skin a burgundy brown for a week to 2 weeks.
