Attire
Each event has its own vibe — dress accordingly and come ready to celebrate!
Traditional Punjabi wear is always welcome and encouraged. Non-Punjabi guests: your usual wedding attire is perfectly appropriate — just follow the vibe notes for each event.
Wednesday, November 25
Jago
Traditional Punjabi wear · Bright colors encouraged
The Jago is a vibrant, late-night celebration — think bold colors, festive fabrics, and high energy. This is the event to break out the bright kurta, lehenga, or salwar kameez you've been waiting to wear.
Non-Punjabi guests: colorful semi-formal or cocktail attire works great. Skip the neutrals — this is a night for bold and beautiful.
Friday, November 27
Anand Karaj (Wedding Ceremony)
Traditional attire or Punjabi formal · Modest and elegant
The Anand Karaj is a sacred ceremony held at the Gurudwara. Dress modestly and elegantly — covered shoulders and knees for all guests.
Gurudwara Requirements
- Head covering required for all guests — scarves and dupattas will be available at the entrance
- Shoes are removed before entering — plan for clean socks
- Avoid white (traditionally reserved for mourning in Sikh culture)
Rich, jewel-toned colors are beautiful for this event — deep blues, greens, gold, and pink are all wonderful. Sherwanis, suits, and formal Western attire are all appropriate.
