Fresno California Sikh Maya Choora Ceremony Photography Part Two- Jasdip and Bicky

Courtney — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 02:14:20 +0000

Jasdip’s Maya Choora was held at her house in Fresno, California. This was quite a fun event. The evening was filled with lots of ceremonial events that included putting choora on the bride (when they put bracelets on her wrists), applying a yellow paste on the bride known as maya and then there was jaggo which is where guests take turns wearing an adorned bucket atop their heads. Below are some of our favorite photos from Jasdip’s Maya Choora ceremony.
