  SINDHI MARRIAGES ....
 
Wedding Procession


The Sindhi Hindu marriage was like a carnival. Five days before the wedding-day, Dholak and Shehnai players were invited and seated on Navar laced cots. Then the musicians would play music intermittently, thus creating a melodious ambience. On the day of the wedding procession, the musicians were led by dancing girls, who would be singing Laadas, either in Punjabi or in Sindhi.

The groom was seated on a horse, sent by the bride's family, wearing a silver Mukut (crown). In the memory of the grandfather and grandmother, coins would be showered on him, till the wedding hall is reached. While it will pass the Havelis, people will greet them with wishes and blessings. Then the Baraat will be received with sweets and rose water. After this, the wedding would take place. These processions were called Janj and formed an integral part of the weddings.
