A Haldi ceremony has always been sacred and full of traditions in India. However, considering the mindset of modern people and millennials, plain Haldi ceremonies can get a bit boring. Therefore, we need to use some interesting ideas to make it more fun and interesting. Today we will see some Quirky Haldi Ceremony Ideas and you would be able to turn it into a memorable event.
Let it pour from the roof!
If you want everyone to remember your or your siblings’ Haldi ceremony then you will have to come up with ideas that are not only smart but grand as well. The Haldi ceremony comprises of smearing turmeric paste on the bodies of the bride and groom. Moreover, this ceremony is usually performed in an open space like a garden or veranda. Let the turmeric rain from your rooftops or just hang them in sacks on a big tree and pull the strings at the right time just when the sacred ritual is about to finish. This will come as a pleasant surprise to everyone who has been a part of your wedding rituals!
Poolside Haldi!
To transform your Haldi ceremony into a fun and memorable event, you can arrange it beside a swimming pool. Therefore, after completion of the ceremony, you can push the bride or the groom or both in the swimming pool and then the other guests or relatives can also join in. However, ensure that the water of the pool is not chlorinated since it will defy the basic purpose of covering your body with turmeric paste by making your face go dry and listless.
Everything is yellow today!
We usually arrange snacks or a complete meal for our guests after the Haldi ceremony. However, you can add a small twist to it by making every dish yellow color. For example, you can use yellow-colored cold drinks, yellow rice, mango ice creams, yellow salad or you can simply turn every drink and food item turn yellow by using organic and safe food color.
Fun games
You can include fun games in your Haldi ceremony to make it even more special. For example, you can use a musical chair and whoever fails to sit on a chair can be smeared with lots of turmeric paste. The younger guys and girls of the house can come up with more interesting games like truth or dare with interesting twists to make it a happening event for your guests and friends.
These were the quirky Haldi ceremony ideas that can spice up this sacred ritual.
