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 New Jersey.
01
Mehndi Ceremony
The Mehndi is the warm-up to the entire wedding weekend — bride, family, friends, henna, and hours of conversation and music. DJ Sohbash's Mehndi playlist is its own arc, moving carefully from soft melodic Bollywood early on to energetic group dance numbers as the day builds. Sufi ballads, romantic classics, and unexpected crowd-pleasers complete the journey.

Haldi Ceremony
There's a specific energy to Haldi — playful, family-driven, fully celebratory — and DJ Sohbash has built his Haldi sets to match it exactly. Folk music, regional classics, songs that bridge generations on the dance floor. His ability to read the moment and amplify it has made his Haldi performances genuinely legendary in South Asian wedding circles.

Garba & Dandiya Night
Garba/Dandiya Night is the heart of the wedding weekend for Gujarati and many multicultural Indian families — and arguably DJ Sohbash's deepest specialty. He moves fluidly between traditional raas, modern fusion Garba, and the devotional-celebratory blends that keep a packed floor spinning for three, four, even five hours. The 3,000+ Indian weddings in his history have made every Garba classic and every crowd-reading technique completely instinctive.

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.

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 New Jersey, 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.

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.
