What is a haldi?

Haldi in Hindu weddings and maiyan (or vatna) in Punjabi Sikh weddings are the ceremonies where family members apply a turmeric paste to the bride or groom before the wedding, for blessings and a glow on the day. They are usually relaxed, daytime and full of yellow.

Most happen at home or in a garden. We help with the parts that make them feel special: yellow and marigold decor, folk singers, a dhol to finish, and photographers and videographers to capture the colour.

Where it works best

  • Step 1

    Yellow and marigold decor with a seat for the bride or groom

  • Step 2

    Folk songs while the family take turns

  • Step 3

    Dhol to lift things once the ceremony is done

  • Step 4

    A photographer and videographer for the close-ups

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Dress for mess

    Turmeric stains. Old clothes in yellow for family, and covers for floors and furniture.

  2. 2

    Shoot in daylight

    Haldi photos look best outdoors or by a big window. Plan the timing with your photographer.

  3. 3

    Keep it short and fun

    A focused hour of ceremony, songs and dhol keeps energy high before a busy wedding week.
