Doli is a post wedding ritual and marks the end of the wedding ceremony with the departure of the bride from her parental house. This is a very emotion and often tearful ceremony as the Bride leaves her parents home and says goodbye to friends and relatives and sets out to build a new life with her husband and his family. The custom is for the bride to throw Phulian or puffed rice over her head. The ritual shows her good wishes of prosperity for her parents to prosper and flourish in the house she is leaving behind. Brother’s accompany the bride as she walks towards the car where brothers, cousins and relatives say goodbye. As the car starts money is thrown onto the road to discard evil and the car sets off to her new home.

Vidaai Bidaai Dholi Wedding DVD Created by Shaun Foulds
A fantastic entrance with Indian Dhol Drummers leading the way at Bhupinder and Sukjit’s wedding. This Sikh wedding video was filmed at the Bedford Corn Exchange, Bedfordshire which was beautifully decorated. The drummers were great as they made their way through the guests to the front of the room ready for the Bride and Grooms cutting of the cake. This takes a lot of skill but these guys were absolute pros!! The Dohl is a two sided drum (has it’s roots in the province of Punjab) and is used for special occasions of celebration such as weddings. Enjoy!!
