SANTOSHINI & VIJAY

OUR WEDDING

October 2025

When two proud Guntur souls, a techie groom and a doctor bride - decide to celebrate their love in the United States, it is more than just a wedding, it is a true pelli sandadi. From the vibrant splash of Haldi to the sacred chants of a Hindu ceremony, from the heartfelt vows under the stars to a DJ-powered reception where dancing is absolutely mandatory, and finally a graceful Catholic Church wedding to seal the deal - this celebration is a beautiful blend of faiths, families, and footwork. Come ready to cheer, bless, and boogie. And yes, be prepared for a touch of fiery Guntur spirit!

What is the dress code for Haldi on the 1st?

Haldi is our pre-wedding glow-up ritual where turmeric meets tradition. It's like a spa day but with some twists. We would love our guests to wear yellow dresses for Haldi and click some nice picture while having fun.

IDEAS

What is the dress code for Hindu Wedding on the 2nd?

We’re celebrating love the Andhra (South Indian) way - vibrant, joyful and unapologetically colorful! Think of rich silks, lehengas, sherwanis or kurtas with some embroidery! Reds, yellows, greens, and golds are always a hit. Black and white are best left for boardrooms and brunches.

IDEAS

What is the dress code for reception on the 2nd?

We’re bringing the beats, the bling, and a DJ who knows how to drop Bollywood, Tollywood and Kollywood bangers apart from the global grooves. Dress like you’re ready to star in a music video and dance like no one’s watching. Indo-western fusion, cocktail glam or anything that lets you groove and sparkle under the lights.

What is the dress code for Christian Wedding on the 4th?

Think elegant, modest and joyfully formal attire. Suits (including bandhgalas) for gentlemen, and elegant dresses (including sarees) or pantsuits for ladies would be lovely.

Are kids allowed to join all the events?

Yeah! The kiddos will enjoy all the events.

Anything else we need to know?

Not really! Everything you need to know is on this site, if you can't find something email or text us. We're very happy to help, and so excited to see everyone!
