Wedding: Chirag + Nancy | Day 2 of 3 - Pithi Ceremony | White Rabbit Studios

Day two of Chirag and Nancy's wedding festivities began with the Pithi ceremony. Essentially, a paste made out of chickpea flour, turmeric, rose water, and other ingredients is rubbed on the skin of the bride and groom by family members. Traditionally this takes place at the homes of the bride and groom separately, but in our case, Chirag was pasted first. While he was showering, Nancy had her own ceremony!

The paste is thought to be good for skin and to even out skin tone. I suppose we'd need to check in with Chirag and Nancy to confirm this, but the two were absolutely glowing during the ceremony. Of course...that might be due to the yellow paste! ;)
