The Wedding Events

Three days of love, laughter, and tradition — each event woven with meaning and joy.

Feb 14, 2026

Mehendi Ceremony

4:00 PM — 8:00 PM  ·  Poolside Lawn

An evening of intricate henna artistry, music, and celebration. The bride's hands and feet are adorned with beautiful mehendi designs — it is said that the darker the mehendi, the deeper the love between the couple.

Sangeet
Feb 14, 2026

Sangeet Night

7:30 PM — 11:30 PM  ·  Grand Ballroom

A night of choreographed dances, live music, and pure jubilation. Both families come together to perform, celebrating the union through song and dance — a tradition that transforms strangers into family.

Feb 15, 2026

Haldi Ceremony

10:00 AM — 1:00 PM  ·  Courtyard Garden

A joyful, messy, and beautiful ritual where a paste of turmeric, sandalwood, and rose water is applied to the bride and groom. Haldi purifies and blesses the couple before the wedding, and the golden hue symbolizes prosperity.

A grand evening of celebration, dining, and dancing under the stars. The newlywed couple is formally introduced to the world, with speeches, toasts, and a magnificent feast marking the beginning of their journey together.

Sacred Heritage

Behind the Traditions

Every ritual carries centuries of meaning — here's the story behind each celebration.

Mehendi

Dating back to Vedic times, mehendi (henna) is believed to awaken the inner light. The bride's designs often hide the groom's name — he must find it on the wedding night. The cooling properties of henna also calm pre-wedding nerves.

Sangeet

Originally a North Indian tradition, the Sangeet was a women-only affair with folk songs. Today it has evolved into a grand musical evening where both families perform choreographed dances — breaking the ice and forging bonds that last a lifetime.

Haldi

Turmeric has been revered in Ayurveda for 4,000 years for its antiseptic and beautifying properties. The Haldi ritual purifies the couple before marriage, wards off evil eye, and blesses them with a golden, radiant glow.

Seven Pheras

The Saat Phere (seven rounds) around the sacred fire is the heart of a Hindu wedding. Agni Devta (the Fire God) is the supreme witness. Each round represents a vow — nourishment, strength, prosperity, happiness, progeny, health, and eternal friendship.

Mangalsutra

The groom ties the Mangalsutra — a sacred necklace with black beads to ward off evil — around the bride's neck. This thread of love symbolizes their eternal bond and is equivalent to the Western wedding ring, worn throughout life.

Griha Pravesh

After the wedding, the bride kicks a pot of rice with her right foot at the groom's doorstep, spilling the grains — symbolizing that she enters bringing abundance and prosperity. She then steps into vermilion footprints, marking her new home.
