Sangeet Ceremony – Break To Banta Hai Boss!
[vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text]Indian Weddings are joyous affairs and leave behind memories of a lifetime. The union of a girl and boy in wedlock is enjoyed more by everybody else than the Bride and Bridegroom themselves. There are several ceremonies that lead up to the occasion of the sacred fire, the tying of the mangalsutra and the saat pheras of the would-be-couple, one such being the Sangeet Ceremony.
(See that split from a grin to a wide smile and the loud cheerful laughter that follows when it is mentioned.)
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text]The most awaited, the most enjoyed and the most felt for on its ending, is the Sangeet Ceremony. Earlier restricted to some parts of North India it is today a national item that is a must for most average households. The general cry is “If there is to be a wedding, it cannot be complete without the Sangeet Ceremony”. This musical bonanza with fun and frolic for all concerned could be a short-lived affair of just an hour or two, (maybe more in eccentric cases) but is the most inclusive and enjoyable part of the entire wedding programme. It is the only time in the entire several-day itenary of the marriage rituals when young and old unite to ‘rock the foundations’.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][vc_gallery type="nivo" interval="15" images="4276,4277,4278" onclick="link_image" custom_links_target="_self" img_size="853*450"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text]Once arranged by the family of the bride and later also hijacked by the groom’s side, it has come to be a joint affair in most cases now.

Soul is out; fast-beat foot-tapping numbers are the order of the day.
Simple to lavish spreads await the tired spirits after the frenzied movements. The menu could be simple meals enjoyed together to a regular feast or a buffet-style bash.
