§ Hiring a baraat & entertainment · what matters
Horses, ghoris, dhol, bhangra.
The baraat is the groom's procession — traditionally on horseback (ghori), arriving at the bride's venue with dhol players, live dancers, and sometimes fireworks or a parade float. In the GTA, baraats have scaled to include luxury cars, vintage motorcycles, and even elephant lookalikes. The dhol player is the non-negotiable core — a live dhol is what makes a baraat a baraat.
