What is a sangeet?

The sangeet is a pre-wedding music night, traditionally part of North Indian weddings, where both families perform songs and choreographed dances for the couple. Today it is often a full production with a stage, lighting, a host and professional performers.

We supply what turns a sangeet into a show: a stage and AV, a host or compere, live singers or a Bollywood band, professional dancers to open and close the night, and a DJ for the party.

Where it works best

  • Step 1

    A host to run the order of performances

  • Step 2

    An opening routine from professional Bollywood dancers

  • Step 3

    Family performances with stage lighting and sound

  • Step 4

    Live singers or a Bollywood band

  • Step 5

    Dhol and a DJ to finish with a party

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Write a running order

    List every family performance with its track and length, and share it with the host and DJ a week before.

  2. 2

    Rehearse on the stage

    If the venue allows, run each routine once on the stage before guests arrive.

  3. 3

    End with everyone on the floor

    Finish the performances with a group dance or a dhol set so the party starts straight away.
