After a heartwarming Day 1 filled with love and romance at the Infinity Chapel at Conrad, Jacinta and Yusfaj’s wedding festivities continued with a vibrant and culturally rich Day 2 which included mehendi and haldi ceremony.

The Mehendi and Haldi ceremonies are two important pre-wedding rituals in Indian culture, especially in Hindu and Muslim weddings.

The Mehendi ceremony marked the start of Day 2, bringing with it an explosion of color, laughter, and intricate artistry. As the sun bathed the venue in warm light, Jacinta’s hands and feet became the canvas for a skilled mehendi artist. The beautiful henna designs, featuring elaborate patterns and symbolic motifs, told a story of love, union, and blessings. Guests joined in the fun, with many choosing to have their hands adorned with henna as well. The air was filled with the aroma of freshly mixed mehendi paste, combined with the joyous chatter of friends and family.

Following the Mehendi, it was time for the Haldi ceremony, a ritual that is as much about fun as it is about tradition. Held under a vibrant yellow and orange canopy, the Haldi ceremony saw Jacinta and Yusfaj seated together, radiating happiness as their loved ones applied a mixture of turmeric, sandalwood, and rose water to their skin.

The splashes of yellow from the Haldi paste contrasted beautifully with the colorful attire of the guests. Jacinta and Yusfaj, dressed in traditional outfits, looked mesmerizing against the backdrop.
