Post-wedding

Griha Pravesh or homecoming

The bride's welcome into her new home: the kalash, the aarti, the red footprints.

What happens

The bride's arrival at the groom's family home: the kalash of rice tipped over the threshold, the aarti at the door, the red (alta) footprints into the house, and the games that follow. For many families a second reception or a dinner comes the same evening or the next day.

Vendors: a priest for the rituals, decor for the entrance (florals, rangoli, a backdrop), catering for a house full of relatives, and a photographer.
