Indian Wedding Ceremonies

Every Ceremony. Every Tradition. Flawlessly Performed.

A South Asian wedding is not one event — it's a multi-day, multi-ceremony celebration of culture, family, and tradition. DJ Sohbash has performed every Indian wedding ceremony over 3,000+ weddings across 25+ years, bringing deep musical knowledge and live crowd intuition to each event in your wedding weekend in Adler Planetarium.
01
Mehndi Ceremony
Henna application is slow, intimate, and hours long — which makes the Mehndi music selection deeply important. DJ Sohbash curates a flowing, joyful set that drifts from soft melodic Bollywood through Sufi ballads and romantic classics into energetic group dance numbers as the mood shifts. The Mehndi playlist becomes a journey in itself.
Bollywood · Sufi · Romantic Classics · Garba
02
Haldi Ceremony
Haldi celebrates the bride and groom with turmeric, laughter, and the entire extended family in one room. DJ Sohbash brings exactly the kind of playful, high-energy music the moment demands — folk songs, regional classics, and tracks that get grandmothers and cousins moving together. His Haldi reads-and-amplifies approach is something families talk about for years.
Punjabi Folk · Bollywood · Bhangra · Regional Classics
03
Garba & Dandiya Night
For Gujarati and many multicultural Indian wedding families, Garba/Dandiya Night is the highlight of the entire weekend. DJ Sohbash works across the full spectrum — traditional raas, modern fusion Garba, and the seamless devotional-to-celebratory blends that keep the floor turning for hours. Across 3,000+ Indian weddings, he's catalogued every classic and refined every crowd-reading technique the night demands.
Traditional Garba · Dandiya Raas · Fusion Garba · Navratri Classics
04
Sangeet Night
Sangeet night is what most clients later describe as the highlight of the wedding weekend, and DJ Sohbash's role in it is what they remember. Once the family performances and skits finish, he runs a set built specifically for that family — multi-era Bollywood, Bhangra for the Punjabi uncles, fusion EDM drops for the younger guests, and the kind of seamless crowd reading that keeps every generation dancing until midnight.

Baraat Procession
The Baraat is the groom's grand entrance — and DJ Sohbash has orchestrated over 3,000+ of them. Whether it's a horse-led Baraat through the streets of Adler Planetarium, a dhol-driven procession through a luxury hotel lobby, or an arrival choreographed to a specific Bollywood anthem, DJ Sohbash coordinates every beat, every transition, and every crowd moment to make the groom's arrival the most unforgettable five minutes of the weekend.

06
Wedding Reception
The Reception is where the entire wedding weekend resolves — and DJ Sohbash treats it that way. Guests routinely describe his closing performances as transcendent. The arc is deliberate: cocktail hour ambiance, first dance coordination, parent dances, then the main reception set moving from family classics through floor-filling Bollywood into a Bhangra finale that empties every chair. After 3,000+ Indian wedding Receptions, every one ends the same — standing ovation, full floor, nobody wanting to leave.
