Indian weddings are known for their grand celebrations and rich traditions. Every function carries its own significance and its own decoration theme. Below is the customary sequence of major functions in an Indian wedding, along with how Manha Event Decoration approaches each one across Jaipur, Rajasthan.
Pre-Wedding Functions
Roka / Sagai / Ring Ceremony: This ceremony marks the official announcement that the two families have agreed to the match. We style intimate stage backdrops and table settings for this first family gathering.
Bindola / Bandoori Celebration & Byah Haath / Grah Shanti Puja: Early shubh-shagun rituals and the religious start of the wedding muhurat, decorated with respect for tradition alongside festive Rajasthani colour.
Mayra / Bhat / Gharoli Ceremony: A significant ritual led by the maternal side of the family, given the grand, well-organised setup it deserves.
Mata Ki Chowki / Bhajan Sandhya / Sufi Night: A devotional evening of music, styled with a calmer, spiritual mood in mind.
Mehendi Ceremony: Henna is applied to the bride's, groom's and guests' hands in a relaxed, vibrant setting. Our Mehendi decoration uses colourful umbrellas, jhoolas and textile backdrops for a festive, photo-friendly space.
