What is a gaye holud?

A pre-wedding celebration where turmeric paste is applied to the bride or groom, with music, dancing and yellow and orange outfits.

A reception hosted by the groom's family after the wedding to welcome the bride. The card has its own date, time and venue.

Are there religious symbols?

No. The artwork is alpana-inspired florals, so the suite suits Muslim and Hindu Bengali families alike.

How do I get the files?

Straight after payment the download page opens with a button for every file, and we email you the same link. Nothing is posted.

How should I print them?

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader or your browser and print at 100% or ‘Actual size’, not ‘Fit to page’. Matte card of 200–300 gsm gives the nicest finish, but plain paper works too.

Can I print more than one copy?

Yes. The personal-use licence lets you print as many copies as you need for your own home, family and events, at home or at a print shop. Please do not share or resell the files.
