Our dress code is Black Tie Optional — which means you’re encouraged to go all-out, but you definitely don’t have to. Think of it this way:

– A tuxedo or a floor-length evening gown is always a great choice…

– But a sharp suit with dress pants is just as appropriate. And a below-the-knee or midi cocktail dress works beautifully too.

So go ahead and grab the outfit that makes you feel your most polished and fabulous, whether that’s classic black tie or a dressed-up, formal look.

If you’d like to show up in Desi formal attire, we love that—lehengas, shalwar kameez or gowns, and kurtas are all encouraged. Bring the sparkle, the color, the embroidery… we’re here for it.

Please plan to arrive by 4:30 PM so everyone can be seated before the 5:00 PM ceremony begins.

Both the ceremony and reception will be held indoors, so no need to worry about weather, heels sinking into grass, or bringing extra layers.

Yes, there is ample complimentary on-site parking.

Please RSVP by May 1 at the latest. Early responses are greatly appreciated, so the sooner the better!

The Nikah is simply the wedding ceremony. It includes the officiant guiding the couple through their vows, along with short Arabic readings and blessings. Guests simply sit and observe.

In a traditional Desi wedding, the baraat is when the groom rides in with his family and close friends.

But this is a fusion wedding—so plot twist: the groom will not be in the Baraat.

Instead, the groom’s family and a select group of his close friends will make a lively entrance on behalf of his side. Think of it like his hype squad showing up first.

They’ll be accompanied by traditional South Asian drummers with upbeat, parade-style rhythms that make it basically impossible not to dance a little.

Guests will watch the fun from inside the venue while the bride’s family welcomes them in.

The groom (and bride!) will get their own grand entrance later—because everyone deserves their own moment.

Joota Chupai literally translates to “shoe hiding,” and it’s exactly what it sounds like.

In this tradition, the bride’s family and friends steal the groom’s shoes during the wedding festivities. The shoes are then basically held for ransom until the groom negotiates (and usually pays!) to get them back.

It’s all in good fun and meant to be a lighthearted, spirited game between both sides of the family.

There will be assigned tables, but not assigned individual seats. You’ll find your table number upon arrival, and then you’re welcome to choose any seat at your table.

As we’ve planned our day, we’ve been intentional about creating a meaningful experience with those closest to us. We kindly ask that guests attend as listed on their invitation.
