A lady got in touch with me recently asking if I would perform her Hindu wedding on the playa. She found someone else to do it first as I wasn't sure if I was coming but now I'm her back-up!
She's now looking for a place to hold the wedding ceremony and I said that the dome worked really well last year, and that I'd check in with you guys to see if we'd be up for hosting it at our dome on the wednesday afternoon (2 till 5pm I think).
It looked so beautiful last year and was lots of fun. Would you folks like to do it again??!!

Fri, August 17, 2007 - 11:12 AMI don't know any details about it. I'm assuming we'd be invited. I will find out more from her and get back to you.
Anyone else have any thoughts about whether to do it? -

Re: Shall we host a Hindu wedding??!!
Sat, August 18, 2007 - 5:30 PMthank you Anna!!!!!!!!!! you so ROCK! :D
if you guys are ok with us having our wedding in your dome, we would be sooooooooooo grateful!!! thank you for being so hospitable!!! yai new playafamily! : )
and um, thanks again Anna for bein so gracious about bein a "back up" priestess :P lol!!!
so this is what we have in mind:
Weds 2pm: Ladies Bridal Sangeet at the Goddess Gathering (Iron Rose camp)
- The wedding sangeet is a traditional event in Indian weddings where the bride's family essentially decorate the bride for the wedding. : ) and they sing and dance in anticipation of the marriage. we are planning to crash the Goddess Gathering, which is a separate event for the Burning Women tribe to gather together on the playa.
this is a women-only event, and all of your camp ladies are more than welcome to join to come get pampered as well. the only requirement is that you need to bring something to share, it can be food, drink, nail polish, lotion, crafts, gifts, music, art, dance, hair braiding, stories, etc.
Weds 4pm: RT & Lalit Hindu Wedding Ceremony @ your camp, yai! :D
- there will be a kirtan starting maybe around 3pm, led by Sura, who has agreed to be our priest. The wedding starts at 4pm, as Sura has a hard stop at 5:30pm.
Weds 6pm: Reception @ Silicon Burning (6:30 & Coral Reef)
- this will be at our camp party and we will have some traditional Indian food just for the event.
please join us for any or all of these events, we would be soooooooooo happy to have our extended playafamily be a part of this!
thank you thank you!! huge hugs, Arti & Lalit -
