About the Engagement & Sagan Ceremony Before the wedding, we will be celebrating two important pre-wedding rituals: the Engagement and the Sagan Ceremony. The Engagement is a formal announcement of the couple’s intention to marry, marked by the exchange of rings and blessings from elders. It’s a joyful event where both families officially come together to celebrate the upcoming union. The Sagan Ceremony is a Punjabi tradition where the groom is blessed by the bride’s family. He receives gifts, sweets, and a traditional tika (vermilion mark) on his forehead, symbolizing love and acceptance. These ceremonies are filled with music, laughter, and meaningful rituals – a beautiful glimpse into the warmth and richness of Indian culture.
