What's included

What the Hindu Traditional template fills in for you

Open it and most of the invitation is already written — you add names, dates and venues.

Blessing at the top

॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥

Shree Ganeshaya Namah — an invocation to Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles.

Functions pre-listed
  • Haldi Ceremony
  • Mehendi Ceremony
  • Sangeet Night
  • Wedding Ceremony
  • Reception

Each has its own date, time, venue, address, Google Maps link and an “at home” switch. Turn off any function you aren't hosting.

Welcome message

॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥ With the divine blessings of Lord Ganesha and the love of our families, we joyfully invite you to celebrate our wedding

Closing message

Your presence will add joy to our special day. Looking forward to celebrating with you! शुभ लाभ 🙏

Both messages are pre-written — keep them or rewrite them in your own words.

Also consider Hindu RoyalPurple tones, with Tilak, Royal Wedding and Grand Reception — for a grander celebration.
Why a Hindu template

Why a generic invite maker doesn't fit a Hindu wedding

A Hindu shaadi isn't one event at one address — and the invitation shouldn't pretend it is.

  • Five functions, five timings

    Most invite tools give you one date, one time, one venue. A Hindu wedding needs Haldi, Mehendi, Sangeet, the pheras and the reception — each on its own.

  • No place for the blessing

    Western-style templates have nowhere natural for श्री गणेशाय नमः or a shloka in Devanagari — the first thing many elders look for.

  • Elders want the muhurat and a number

    Grandparents ask when the pheras actually begin and whom to call. A pretty card that answers neither means calls on the busiest night.

  • Haldi, Mehendi, Sangeet, Wedding and Reception listed

Hindu wedding functions

Hindu wedding functions — and how each fits on your invite

A North Indian Hindu wedding in the order most families hold it. Functions in the template get their own card; for the rest, add the timing to your welcome message.

  • In Hindu Traditional — a ready function card with date, venue and map
  • In Hindu Royal — pre-listed in that design instead
  • Mention in your message — add its timing to your welcome message

  1. 1. Roka & Sagai

    रोका · सगाईMention in your message

    The families formally accept the match and the couple exchange rings — usually weeks or months before the wedding, with close family.

    Most couples leave it off the main invitation.

  2. 2. Tilak

    तिलकIn Hindu Royal

    Men from the bride's family visit the groom's home to apply tilak and bless him.

  3. 3. Ganesh Puja

    गणेश पूजाMention in your message

    Prayers to Lord Ganesha so the celebrations begin without obstacles — the reason so many invitations open with श्री गणेशाय नमः.

  4. 4. Haldi

    हल्दीIn Hindu Traditional

    Turmeric paste is applied to the bride and groom at their homes, usually the morning before the wedding.

    Switch on “at home” and add your house address.

  5. 5. Mehendi

    मेहंदीIn Hindu Traditional

    Henna for the bride and the women of the family, with songs and dholak — often an afternoon or evening function.

  6. 6. Sangeet

    संगीतIn Hindu Traditional

    An evening of music and dance where both families perform — for many, the most fun night of the wedding.

  7. 7. Baraat

    बारातMention in your message

    The groom's procession to the venue with band and dhol; his side gathers beforehand to dance in.

    Write the baraat's assembly time and place in your welcome message.

  8. 8. Wedding: Jaimala, Kanyadaan, Pheras

    विवाह · फेरेIn Hindu Traditional

    The main ceremony — exchange of garlands, kanyadaan and the seven pheras around the sacred fire at the muhurat set by your pandit ji.

    Use the muhurat time on this card so elders know when the pheras begin.

  9. 9. Vidaai

    विदाईMention in your message

    The bride's farewell from her family after the pheras — usually not timed on the invitation.

  10. 10. Reception

    रिसेप्शनIn Hindu Traditional

    A celebration for friends and family after the wedding, often hosted by the groom's family a day or two later.

Wording

Hindu wedding invitation wording you can use

Copy a line into your welcome or closing message — in Hindi, English or both.

  • Ganesh shloka

    वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ। निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

    A classic prayer to Lord Ganesha, often printed at the top of Hindu cards.

  • Welcome message (English)

    With the blessings of Lord Ganesha and our elders, the Sharma family joyfully invites you to the wedding of their daughter Priya with Rahul, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gupta.

  • Welcome message (Hindi)

    श्री गणेश जी की कृपा और बड़ों के आशीर्वाद से, शर्मा परिवार अपनी सुपुत्री प्रिया के शुभ विवाह में आपको सादर आमंत्रित करता है।

  • Hinglish

    Aap sabhi saadar aamantrit hain 🙏 Priya aur Rahul ke shubh vivah mein padharkar humein aashirwad dijiye.

  • Baraat timing

    The baraat leaves from Gupta Niwas at 7:00 PM — please join us there and dance in with us!

    Baraat isn't a separate function card, so add it to your welcome message.

  • Closing (Hindi)

    आपकी उपस्थिति हमारे लिए सौभाग्य होगी। स्वागतोत्सुक: समस्त शर्मा परिवार

Who it suits

Which Hindu weddings this template suits

  • North Indian weddings

    Punjabi, UP, Bihari or Delhi families — the function list follows the classic North Indian sequence.

  • Marwari & Rajput weddings

    Hosting a Tilak and a grand reception? The Hindu Royal design lists those and suits palace venues.

  • South Indian Hindu weddings

    Function names here are North Indian. Many South Indian couples use Modern Minimal and describe the Muhurtham in the welcome message.

  • Destination weddings

    Guests in an unfamiliar city get each function's venue and map — from the mehendi lawn to the mandap.

You can switch while editing.
