This is a music session that is held at the bride's home a few days before the wedding. The congregation consists of the bride's girl friends and female relatives. Folk and wedding songs are sung during the session.
The Mehndi ceremony is also attended by female relatives and friends of the bride, and is held at the bride's home. The ceremony is usually held on the eve of wedding. The bride-to-be is anointed with a paste of turmeric and sandalwood powder. This is part of the purification or cleansing process before the mehndi (henna) is applied on her hands and feet. A friend or a special mehndi artist applies the mehndi in beautiful and intricate designs. Mehndi is also applied on the hands of those present. It is a joyous occasion and tea and delicious snacks are served throughout the evening.
Feeding Brahmins is considered auspicious and it is customary for Arya Samajis to feed 16 Brahmins on the morning of the wedding. This ritual is called brahmbhoj. The family members usually participate in serving the Brahmins.
These ceremonies are observed by Arya Samajis hailing from the Northern regions of India - such as the Punjabis. On the day of the wedding, the maternal uncle of the bride-to-be slips on red ivory bangles on her wrists. He also helps her wear the traditional nath, a large, circular nose ring.
