The Baraat: A Grand Entrance
A Vibrant Start to Your Wedding
One of the most important and fun events in an Indian wedding is the Baraat. The entire venue and surrounding streets are drawn towards the colorful, music-filled Baraat. The grand entry of the groom into the wedding venue with a lively procession of family and friends sets the tone for the entire day. Laughter, dancing, cheering, and excitement – the Baraat is the ultimate way to kick off wedding festivities.
Traditional and Modern Baraat Elements
Traditionally, a Baraat features the bridegroom riding down the street to the wedding venue on a white horse, a Ghodi, adorned with flowers and bejeweled embellishments. He sits on an intricately embroidered saddle and carries a ceremonial sword, with a young male relative riding with him. Depending on the family's South Asian tradition, the groom wears a turban or headdress with a ceremonial veil of beads or flowers, while close male relatives wear turbans.
While the groom's attire has largely remained traditional, the Baraat itself has evolved into an extravagant party. Many grooms now opt for elephants, gleaming carriages, or even luxury white cars for their grand entrance.
Music and Entertainment
The spirited soundtrack of a Baraat includes the singing of accompanying groomsmen, or baraatis, and a band or DJ who drives alongside the groom, blasting foot-stomping bhangra beats or hit Bollywood songs. Traditional Indian wedding bands play a variety of South Asian instruments, including the dhol, as baraatis, family members, and friends sing and dance along.
Vendor Coordination for Baraat
An Indian wedding Baraat requires multiple vendors, including bands, DJs, florists, animal handlers, horse and carriage companies, and event planners. At Alankrita Celebrations, we simplify this process by providing a curated list of our favorite Baraat vendors, all handpicked for their excellent work and experience. Check them out below and uncover more Baraat inspiration in our Maharani Weddings ‘Platinum Guide.
