Mehendi & Light Bites

Get ready for some mehendi (henna) and fun! Mehendi is a traditional part of Indian weddings - the intricate designs are each unique and beautiful, with the bride’s mehendi typically being the most complex. We will have some light bites to accompany the celebration!

Sangeet
6PM to 7PM
Continuing on from the Mehendi, with family and friends of the bride and groom putting their best foot forward (literally!), the performances of the Sangeet will be a memorable part of the evening.
Garba, Dinner & Dance

Garba, a dance form originating in Gujurat, is a big part of our culture and we look forward to “Garba-ing” with all of you! No experience necessary, we promise :). Dinner will be served alongside the dancing, so do take a food break to enjoy some delicious local cuisines.
After the Garba outdoors, we’ll move inside for some continued dancing to the DJ’s tunes.
