Meet at the Rotunda near the fountain to escort our groom to the wedding ceremony. This is an Indian tradition where the groom's processional leads him to the wedding ceremony amidst dhols (Indian drums), singing and dancing!
Gentlemen: Traditional Indian (kurta or sherwani) or formal attire (suit and tie) recommended. Head must be covered with a rumaal (handkerchief) during the ceremony. These will be provided before entering the ceremony hall.
Ladies: Traditional Indian attire or long dresses recommended. Modest clothing is requested (i.e. please avoid strapless tops, short dresses, shorts etc.) Head must be covered with a chunni (scarf) or rumaal (handkerchief) during the ceremony.
Note: The ceremony requires all participants to be seated on the ground. Please keep this in mind when selecting your attire so that you are comfortable. There is some seating at the back of the hall for anyone who is unable to sit on the floor. In keeping with Sikh tradition, guests will be asked to remove their footwear and cover their heads before entering the ceremony hall. The floor will be carpeted and indoors.
