Questions & answers

Am I invited to every event?

Yes. Every guest is invited to every event.

When should I arrive?

Most guests are arriving on Thursday, May 13. If you can only make it on Friday, that’s fine too: the Haldi is a relaxed daytime gathering, so just aim to be here for the Sangeet that evening.

What should I wear?

Each event has its own dress code, from sunny yellows at the Haldi to Western formal at the reception on Saturday night. Our attire guide has ideas and colors for each.
