At the entrance they are welcomed by the family of the bride, with great enthusiasm. The Barati’s introduce themselves to the family of the bride, which is known as Milni. The mother of the bride performs a ritual known as Aarti before the groom. It is after this ritual that the members in the Wedding Barat enter the house or the venue.
