What to expect: "Sangeet" translates to music and dance. This high-energy evening features dance performances from our closest friends and family, followed by a wide-open dance floor. More than just performances, Sangeet is about shared laughter, heartfelt moments, and creating memories before the big day.

Traditionally, it’s a way to celebrate the union through dance and music, strengthening bonds and easing everyone into the wedding festivities.

Food & Drink: Action-packed Indian street food live stations, a premium bar, and late-night Mexican desserts.

The day, the moment, the forever.

What to expect: The energy stays electric as the families officially meet! First up is the Milni, a lively tradition where corresponding family members greet each other with hugs, garlands, and playful lifting matches. Immediately after, get ready for the Varmala—the couple's first meeting and garland exchange. Watch closely, as friends and family will inevitably hoist the bride and groom into the air to turn a sweet tradition into a hilarious, competitive showdown!
Varmala marks the couple’s first public expression of acceptance and love. By exchanging garlands, they symbolically choose one another as equal partners, beginning their journey together with joy, respect, and mutual commitment.

Next is Pheras
What to expect: A traditional South Asian ceremony held under a beautifully decorated Mandap, overlooking the Caribbean Sea.

The Pheras are the heart of the Hindu wedding ceremony, where the couple takes seven sacred vows around the holy fire. Each round represents a promise—of love, trust, support, and shared responsibilities—binding them together for a lifetime as partners in every sense.
Food & Drink: Light Indian vegetarian snacks, thoughtfully curated for our guests, will be served with tea.

The Grand Dinner

What to expect: An upscale, editorial-style night of celebration, emotional toasts, cake cutting, and non-stop dancing.

As the sun sets in beautiful Riviera Maya, we’ll transition into the Grand Dinner — the crowning moment of our wedding weekend. More than a meal, this is a love letter to every soul who journeyed here to be with us: an evening to honor the love that brought us together, the bonds that have carried us, and the magic of this place we've chosen to mark forever in our story. We’ll raise our glasses to a celebration that will linger long after the weekend is over, honoring Rutva and Dev.

Food & Drink: An extensive dinner, flowing premium bar, and a late-night taco station.
