Jago ceremony

After the sangeet, the jago ceremony took place wednesday night. It is an important part of Punjabi marriage rituals. Harbhajan carried a decorated ghara (pot) and went around the locality with his mother, sisters and other relatives and did giddha.

Their locality was cordoned off for security purposes, and the bouncers wore T-shirts with ‘Harbhajan and Geeta’ written on them. Harbhajan wore a green Pathani suit. A special dinner was organised afterwards.

The wedding

The wedding was a traditional Punjabi affair. The dulha got ready with his baraat, and left for the venue in a Rolls Royce in style. The beautiful bride blushed her way to the venue in another Archana Kochhar creation. It was a traditional red lehenga with heavy golden work on it. Geeta opted for heavy kundan jewellery from Vadodara-based Narayan Jewellers to match her outfit. It included a nathhaath phool and a maang tikka. To complement his bride, Bhajji chose an off-white and red sherwani, and looked dapper in that.
