We’re getting married! Or we already are, and we are finally celebrating it in proper fashion with everyone?! Either way, we’re so excited to celebrate this moment with you.
Below you’ll find the full celebration schedule, dress code guidance, and some suggestions for places to stay in LA. We are having a great big 3 DAY wedding in Bangladeshi style! If you can’t be here for all the events, we completely understand, and we recommend that you prioritize attending the last two days.
We love each other and we love YOU. So come and make a big fuss about it with us.
We hope you can make it! Now would be a good time to mention that you should RSVP ;)

What To Wear
Indo-Western, or cocktail and Desi attire! Our guests will be wearing a mix of Desi and American clothes, and we want everyone to feel comfortable, fabulous, and wear what they feel best in.
Here's the day-by-day breakdown:
Mehendi — June 25
Casual, summery, backyard vibes. The bride and groom will be in Desi clothes, but wear what you please! Typical colors for a mehendi outfit include greens, yellows, and pinks.
Holud — June 26
It’s traditional to dress in bright and cheerful colors for the Holud, and we encourage you to dress in them! Think yellows, oranges, reds, and pinks. Pastels, greens, blues, and other colors are welcome too.
Reception – June 27
Whatever you usually wear to a wedding! Desi or Western, your pick.
Looking for Recs?
If any non-Desi people are interested in wearing Desi clothing, do it! We recommend Desi attire on the Holud in particular.
Below are a few shops where you can buy/rent clothes. Look for:
For women: Sarees, salwar kameez, lehengas, anarkalis, shararas
For men: Kurtas, punjabis (kurta-pajama sets), dhoti-kurta sets
Rental shops:
on the town
LA is the BIG CITY! If you’re a regular, we trust you know where you want to be. If not, allow us to give you a few recommendations, based on the locations of where the events will be :)
