After the wedding ceremony, the bride is taken to the groom’s place formally. When they arrive at the groom’s home, their maid will take “Dishti” to get rid off any evil eye from the new couple. Usually, she uses rice and red water to do this. After that, Harathi is offered to the couple by groom’s family members and friends to welcome the bride into her new home. It is called Gruhapravesam of the bride. They can sing the Harathi song if they would like while welcoming the bride.
Preparations & Shopping Checklist:
- Make sure maid is ready to take Dishti
