What’s A Punjabi Wedding Without Bhangra

What makes a Punjabi wedding perfect? Yes, you guessed it right! It is Bhangra, spliced with some Bollywood music. So, set your Boliyans straight and book your Asian wedding DJ for the night right away!

Let us begin with some history lessons, shall we? You might know Bhangra as a celebratory dance performance where both the sexes participate. But bhangra originated as significantly a masculine dance form. Yes, that explains the leaps and bounces. Bhangra was originally performed during the spring harvest festival, and the dance moves would indulge the performers in a show of labour and strength.

Many centuries down the line, modern-day Bhangra has become the symbol of a collective celebration at festivities, especially weddings. And, there is one strain that remains unchanged, though the packaging has somehow changed. Spring and Harvest.

It is sacrilegious for an Indian wedding DJ at the console to not churn out those sick Bhangra beats. The beat, the pace, the rhythm, basically everything about Bhangra music sets the mood for a great party. It is practically impossible for even the uncle with the two left feet to sit idle with a Bhangra beat going on in the background.

Apart from the electrifying music, the ceremony associated with Bhangra sets you on the right track.

Preparation: Bhangra demands discipline and people dedicate many days of practice before the wedding night. It has its recreational value.

Bonding: The bride and the groom sides would often indulge in Bhangra competitions for the sake of fun and frolic and would practice together. It is a great way to bond with new people, make new friends and have a ball on the wedding night!

Songs and Dance: Why would a Bhangra DJ London even be considered a DJ if he/she forgets to play London Thumakda on a Punjabi wedding? Right! From oldies by Surjit Bindrakhia, Daler Mehndi to newbies like Dosanjh and Guru Randhawa, and countless names in-between, an Indian wedding is the one occasion you get to bust all your desi moves. And, we are not even talking about the renegades who urbanised and brought Bhangra into the international music scene.

Opportunity to flaunt your best Desi clothes: A bhangra performance is another synonym for looking the best in your ethnic clothes and jewellery, boys and girls alike. And why not! After all, it is a celebration of two people getting hitched!

So, if you want your big fat Indian wedding to turn heads, get your Asian DJ hired for the night.
