We haven’t even begun attending Hima’s wedding festivities, and it seems like we’ve done so much already.
Today began at the spa… mani, pedi, and massage. We then rushed home (on an auto rickshaw!) to get ready for another Puja, dinner and then the Sangeet…all for Hima’s cousin.
The Sangeet was a new experience, and really when we stepped off the bus that transported us there, it felt like we were celebrities. Granted we rode in with the groom so the second the eight photographers caught wind he was there they all came running.
Once we were in the venue, there was a huge stage with a DJ and live host who introduced the entertainment. Many of the bride’s friends and family performed. There was about an hour of entertainment and then everyone ate (if you haven’t noticed, you eat a lot here… To the point we skip meals because we just can’t eat anymore).
Home after midnight with a 6:15 wake up call for Hima’s first event tomorrow!
