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 Karan Sidharth Photography.
01
Mehndi Ceremony
Mehndi is the first ceremony of the weekend — the bride at the center, family and friends close, hours of intricate henna work. DJ Sohbash's playlist moves precisely with the room's energy: soft melodic Bollywood when conversation is the focus, energetic group numbers when dancing breaks out, Sufi ballads and romantic classics linking it all together.
Bollywood · Sufi · Romantic Classics · Garba
02
Haldi Ceremony
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
03
Garba & Dandiya Night
Garba and Dandiya Night is the heart of the weekend for most Gujarati and multicultural Indian families — and it's a DJ Sohbash specialty. He commands traditional raas, modern fusion Garba, and the kind of devotional-to-celebratory blending that keeps dance floors spinning for three to five hours straight. 3,000+ Indian weddings have given him every Garba classic in muscle memory and every crowd-read in instinct.
Traditional Garba · Dandiya Raas · Fusion Garba · Navratri Classics
04
Sangeet Night
Sangeet is the wedding weekend's biggest dance night — and DJ Sohbash's Sangeet sets are what families end up talking about for years afterward. Once family performances and skits wrap, DJ Sohbash hits the floor with a set engineered for this specific family, this specific crowd, this specific moment. Bollywood hits from every era, Bhangra for the Punjabi uncles, fusion EDM drops that pull the younger generation in — every generation dancing past 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 Karan Sidharth Photography, 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. The Baraat is DJ Sohbash's signature — and every single one is different.

06
Wedding Reception
DJ Sohbash has closed 3,000+ Indian wedding Receptions — and every single one ends the same way: standing ovation, full dance floor, no one wanting to call it a night. The Reception arc he builds is intentional: cocktail hour ambiance to start, then first dance coordination, parent dances, and the main set — a journey from family classics through floor-filling Bollywood to the Bhangra finale that empties every seat.
