The Groom's Haldi ceremony is a lively and colorful event that marks the beginning of the wedding festivities. It’s an occasion for friends and family to gather, celebrate, and shower the groom with love and good wishes. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and joy as family members, especially the groom’s closest relatives, prepare to apply the haldi paste, made from turmeric, sandalwood, and other aromatic ingredients, to the groom with everyone dressed in bright, traditional attire that adds to the cheerful mood of the event. The groom is seated on a special chair and his family members take turns applying the haldi mixture to his face, hands, arms, and legs. Laughter fills the air as the groom may playfully try to avoid the turmeric paste, but eventually, he too joins in the fun and enjoys the moment. The groom’s friends may even take part in mischievous rituals, teasing him or challenging him to dance, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

The Sangeet is an evening of entertainment and merrymaking, where both families come together to celebrate the couple’s upcoming union. It is a night dedicated to celebration, music, dance, and a lot of fun! This event is usually an informal gathering and has a joyful, relaxed vibe, in contrast to the more formal wedding ceremonies.

The Mangalasnanam is a beautiful and serene ritual that marks the beginning of the final preparations before the wedding. The bride and groom, dressed in simple but elegant attire, are made to sit in front of an altar adorned with flowers. For the Mangalasnanam ritual, a special mixture is prepared—usually consisting of turmeric, sandalwood paste, and fragrant oils. This mixture is considered purifying and is applied to the bride and groom's body by their respective family members. The application is done with great care and reverence, as it is believed to purify the couple both physically and spiritually, removing any negative energies and preparing them for the sacred wedding ceremony. We are organizing rain dance and Pot breaking activity (called as "Utti") to amplify the fun and joy and to add liveliness to the event.

The bride and groom exchange engagement rings as a symbol of their commitment to one another. The elders from both families, especially parents, often offer their blessings to the couple.
