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 Marigold Wedding Planners.
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.
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
Many Gujarati and multicultural Indian wedding weekends are built around Garba/Dandiya Night, and DJ Sohbash has made it one of his deepest specialties. Traditional raas, modern fusion Garba, devotional-to-celebratory transitions executed seamlessly — and the kind of crowd-reading honed over 3,000+ Indian weddings that keeps the floor spinning for hours without a dip.

04
Sangeet Night
The biggest dance night of the Indian wedding weekend is almost always the Sangeet, and DJ Sohbash's Sangeet performances become the thing clients reference for years. After the family performances and skit segments wrap, he takes over with a set engineered for this exact family and crowd: Bollywood from every era, Bhangra for the Punjabi uncles, fusion EDM drops to bring younger guests in, and clean crowd-reading that holds the floor until midnight.

Wedding Reception
