Haldi: 13 ready messages

# Haldi invitation message  
for the morning at home, the yellow and the brunch after.

A haldi invitation message is sent to the close circle, the relatives and friends who will actually put the paste on, so it carries the time the haldi starts, where in the house or the lawn it happens, what to wear and what is served after. Below are thirteen messages Indian families send on WhatsApp: a formal haldi from the bride's parents, the groom's haldi at the farmhouse, a cousins' message with the yellow dress code and the dhol, and templates you can fill in. Copy the one that fits, add the address and the time, and send it to each person.

## What to include in a haldi invitation message

Check the message covers these points before you send it, so no guest has to ask you for details later.

-   Whose haldi it is and which side is hosting, since many guests attend both.
-   The time the haldi starts and the time the meal is served, as two lines.
-   The dress code, almost always yellow, and a warning about turmeric stains.
-   Where exactly in the house or the lawn, and the parking.
-   Whether it is the close family only or the whole guest list.
-   A reply-by date with a reason, usually the brunch count.

### Before you send

-   Send the haldi message to the close circle only, and separately from the wedding card. A haldi is an intimate morning and the message should feel like one.
-   Say the dress code plainly and warn about the stains. Guests who are told to wear yellow old clothes arrive relaxed and stay longer.
-   Give a start time and a time to arrive if people are helping. Haldi mornings run late, so ask the helpers for 30 minutes earlier than the guests.
-   Mention the meal. Most haldi ceremonies end in a brunch or lunch and guests plan their day around it.

## Send the haldi invitation on WhatsApp with one-tap replies
