Haldi Invitation Message: English, Hindi and WhatsApp Wording

A Haldi invitation names the bride or groom, gives the date, time and place, and tells guests to wear yellow and clothes they don’t mind staining. Below are messages to copy in English, Hindi and Hinglish.

What is a Haldi ceremony?

It’s the pre-wedding ceremony where turmeric paste is applied to the bride-to-be and groom-to-be, usually at home with close family and friends. Customs differ between families and regions, so adjust the wording to suit yours.

How do you tell guests what to wear?

Say it kindly and practically, as turmeric stains.

• Dress code: shades of yellow.
• Please wear something you don’t mind getting a little messy.
• Yellow, marigolds and old shoes recommended!

Can you combine Haldi with other functions?

Yes, and many families put Haldi and Mehndi on the same day. List each function with its own time, as in our Mehndi and Sangeet invitation wording. For the order of events, see Indian wedding functions explained.

Can a Haldi invitation be digital?

Yes. On PixerInvite, Haldi can be one of the functions on your wedding invitation, with its own time, address and Get Directions button, and RSVPs in one list. You send it all as one link on WhatsApp. Designing and previewing on PixerInvite is free, and you pay only to send. See Indian wedding designs.
