You know there’s a wedding in the house before anyone tells you.
There’s mithai on the table. Chai being made again. Relatives arriving with suitcases, cousins taking over rooms, and a doorbell that barely gets a break.
Because a South Asian wedding begins long before the wedding day.
It begins at home.
In the weeks leading up to it, the house seems to have a life of its own. People come and go, chai keeps brewing, and somehow, something is always being served.
And no matter how much you’ve already eaten, there is always the insistence of “kuch aur lijiye.”
Perhaps that is our love language.
This wedding season, we’ve been collecting special pieces for these very homes, for the mithai, the dry fruits, the chai accompaniments, and everything else that finds its way onto the table.
Celebrating wedding season at Maeraas. ✨
