The Haldi ceremony is a fun, intimate pre-wedding ritual where turmeric paste (Haldi) is applied to the bride and groom by their closest family and friends. This vibrant yellow paste, made from turmeric, sandalwood, and rose water, is believed to bless the couple with good fortune, protect them from evil, and add a radiant glow to their skin for the big day.

The atmosphere is lighthearted and joyful, filled with laughter as everyone applies Haldi to the bride and groom in playful ways. It’s a beautiful way for families to come together, wish the couple well, and kick off the celebrations with a splash of color and tradition.

What to wear:
Since things can get messy, guests are encouraged to wear casual and comfortable clothing that they don’t mind getting a little turmeric on! Yellow clothes are a must!
