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 Bliss Events Chicago.
01
Mehndi Ceremony
Where it all begins: the Mehndi. The bride is surrounded by her closest people while intricate henna patterns take shape. DJ Sohbash's playlist follows that same arc — soft melodic Bollywood early, building into energetic group dance numbers as the energy lifts. Sufi ballads, romantic classics, and surprise crowd-pleasers thread through the whole afternoon.

Haldi day is pure joy — turmeric everywhere, laughter from every corner, the whole family involved. DJ Sohbash matches that energy with playful, high-energy tracks built specifically for the moment: folk music, regional classics, and the songs that get grandmothers and cousins dancing together. His Haldi sets are talked about across South Asian wedding circles.
Punjabi Folk · Bollywood · Bhangra · Regional Classics

Garba & Dandiya Night

Sangeet Night
Indian wedding weekends peak on Sangeet night, and DJ Sohbash's Sangeet sets are typically what clients keep talking about long after. Family performances and skits run their course; then DJ Sohbash steps up with a curated set for this specific room — Bollywood hits across every era, Bhangra targeted at the Punjabi uncles, fusion EDM drops that pull the younger generation onto the floor, and the multigenerational crowd-reading that holds the energy through midnight.

Wedding Reception
The Reception is the resolution of the entire wedding weekend, and DJ Sohbash's closing set is what guests remember years later. Cocktail hour ambiance flows into first dance coordination and parent dances, then into the main reception set — a sequence built carefully from family classics through floor-filling Bollywood into a Bhangra finale that empties every seat in the room. 3,000+ Indian wedding Receptions later, every one closes the same way: standing ovation, dance floor packed, no one moving toward the exit.
