In the quiet of the morning, guests began arriving at Newcastle Golf Club for the Baraat, the centuries-old Sikh tradition of the bride’s family welcoming the groom upon his arrival. After the excitement, each attendee filed into the Prestwick Terrace, which the bride and groom had arranged to transform into a fully white, monochrome space. The wooden white mandap, adorned with sheer white fabric and dried grasses, stood as the focal point in the expansive room. Before it, the couple sat in their matching ivory lehenga and sherwani, and exchanged vows amidst the soothing hymns sung by the priests. The words resonated with the gathered guests, echoing centuries-old traditions and blessings.
