The Haldi ceremony is one of the most vibrant and joyful pre-wedding rituals. A paste made of turmeric (haldi), sandalwood, and rose water is lovingly applied to the bride and groom by family and friends. This golden tradition blesses the couple with prosperity, purifies them before the wedding, and gives them a natural glow. But beyond the blessings, it's really about fun, laughter, dancing, and getting delightfully messy with the people we love most! From traditional dhol beats to Bollywood favorites, we'll be dancing our hearts out. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or just love to move to the music, join us in celebrating with energetic performances and spontaneous dance-offs. Expect bright yellow colors, playful moments, foot-tapping music, and lots of smiles. It's a beautiful way for our families to come together and shower us with love before the big day. Come ready to celebrate and dance!

The Vaidik ceremony is the heart of our wedding—a sacred Hindu ritual rooted in ancient Vedic traditions. This beautiful ceremony takes place around the sacred fire (Agni), witnessed by our families, friends, and the divine. During the ceremony, we'll take the Saat Phere (seven sacred vows) around the fire, with each circle representing a promise we make to each other—from love and loyalty to respect and companionship. These vows bind us together not just for this lifetime, but for all lifetimes to come. The ceremony includes traditional rituals like the Kanyadaan (giving away of the bride), Mangalsutra (sacred necklace), and Sindoor (vermillion), each holding deep spiritual significance. Vedic mantras chanted by the priest will bless our union and seek prosperity for our life together. This is a deeply meaningful ceremony where two souls become one. We're honored to have you witness this sacred moment.

The celebration begins at 5.30PM with the grand Baraat—the groom's procession! Aniruddha will arrive in style, dancing through the streets with family and friends to the beats of the dhol. This energetic, joyful procession is where the festivities truly start, so come ready to join the celebration! Upon arrival, we'll exchange Varmalas (flower garlands) in a beautiful ceremony symbolizing our acceptance of each other as life partners. Expect some playful competition as our families try to lift us up, making it challenging to garland each other—it's all in good fun! The evening continues with a grand feast featuring delicious cuisine, heartfelt toasts and speeches, cake cutting, and precious moments with family and friends. This is our chance to celebrate with everyone who has supported us on this journey. Get ready for an evening filled with love, warmth, spectacular food, and unforgettable moments as we begin our new life together!
