Groom with his Baraat leaving for Bride’s Home
The groom and his baraat leaves the groom’s home all decked up in a traditional sherwani (long coat) or suit and Dastaar (turban). Typically, the groom’s baraat includes very close and special family and friends. The groom’s car is decorated with flowers as he heads to the bride’s home for a grand feast arranged by the bride’s family. The groom’s feast is the most ostentatious and costly feast of the entire wedding. After the dinner, the bride comes back with the groom to live at his house. In Kashmiri culture, the woman usually lives with her husband and his family after marriage.
