Lohri 2019

Hi,

So, I and Anish celebrated our first Lohri as a married couple and it was amazing. We invited all our family and friends, hosted a dhol evening around the lohri (bonfire) followed by dinner on the cold winter night. 

Lohri marks the end of winter season and is a traditional welcome of longer days and sun's journey to the northern hemisphere. Lohri is celebrated with a bonfire and that is exactly what we did. 
To jazz up the celebration and add that extra element of entertainment, we arranged for Dhol wala's so that everybody can shake a leg.

It's a ritual for married couples to take 7 phera's (rounds) around the Lohri fire while dropping Kachi lassi (mix of milk and water ) as they go, so we did that.
Also, like everyone else, we dropped the mixture of popcorn, peanuts and revri in Lohri and late distributed the leftover as prasad.

Hope you liked the pictures, will be sharing my outfit details in next post.

It was such a fun day, do let me know if you celebrate Lohri and how you celebrated it!
