We received a warm welcome when the Boys (Paul, Sai, Sashir and Darren), Swetha and I stopped by Gautam's  parents house for Swetha and I to get mehendi done.  The house was festively decorated with flowers and there was a large crowd of cousins, aunts, uncles and other relatives. 

There was tremendous spread and all of the groom's family gave us a super warm welcome.  The food was incredable and even though we had just had breakfast a couple of hours before, we helped ourselves to small portions of the Punjabi buffet.

Traditionally, mehendi is done for the groom's party as part of the preparations for the wedding.  We enjoyed our visit to their home very much – the family was so inviting we felt like part of it.  It was an honor to be included!
