Pre-Wedding Rituals

This is the celebration of groom’s last night as a bachelor, since thereafter he will cease to be one. The would-be groom, with his Best Man and other pals, drinks and enjoys himself. Prior to drinking, a toast is raised as a custom. Since bachelors are assembled and drink together, this ceremonial party has an ambience of great pomp and festivity. The spirited friends sometimes break their glasses after the party in enthusiasm.

The event has a festive feel to it with the women singing traditional songs.
