Pre-wedding

Nalangu

The Tamil ceremony of turmeric, sandalwood, aarti and games between the couple.

What happens

The Tamil ceremony held the day before or the morning of the wedding (in some families, after it): the bride and groom are seated, relatives apply turmeric and sandalwood paste, aarti is performed, and the couple play games against each other. Light-hearted, and heavily photographed.

Vendors: decor for the seating setup and the florals, a photographer, and a priest or an elder to lead the ritual.
