Kulsum's -Sangeet and Mehandi/Mehndi Ceremonies June 24th

 Kulsums' Sangeet and Mehandi/Mehndi Ceremonies were held in Allentown PA and I have the privilege to be there photographing and filming such important moment for her and her family. 

Please read below for the meaning of these amazing ceremonies which i founded in the internet for better description:

Sangeet
Besides the festivity and frolic that mark the days leading up to the wedding, the families of the prospective bride and groom hold a special sangeet (singing) session. Friends and close family members are invited and traditional wedding songs are sung. Sometimes professional dholwalis (female musicians who play the traditional drum) are invited for a special touch. Both the sides exchange gifts and sweets.
 
Mehandi
It is mandatory for the bride-to-be to have henna on her hands and feet. The henna is sent by the future mother-in-law of the bride-to-be. A relative, friend or a professional mehandiwali (henna artist) applies henna for the bride-to-be. The ritual is marked by festivity. The girl friends and close female relatives of the bride-to-be sing and dance joyously while the mehandi is being applied to her. The henna is usually left on overnight so that it leaves behind a rich dark hue. After the application ceremony, delicious snacks and meals are served to all present.
