Top Marriage Songs that you can play for all your wedding functions!

Marriage songs play an important part in all Indian weddings despite of the cultural diversity. Indian weddings are elaborate affairs that span across a couple of days, where each day is dedicated to a special ceremony. And

while each ceremony is celebrated, some marriage songs are always played and danced to by friends and family alike.

 

To give you an idea of what marriage songs you can play for your wedding functions, I have made six playlists for all the wedding ceremonies that you can download, play and enjoy!

 

 

Haldi Songs

The haldi ceremony in an Indian wedding has a lot of significance. While haldi is applied to both the bride and the groom for a number of auspicious reasons, this ceremony is also a chance for all the young and old of the family to come together and have a gala time. And while we are talking about fun times, how can marriage songs played for haldi be left behind?  So, here’s a list of haldi songs for you to download and enjoy during the ceremony:

 

 

1. Navrai Majhi – English Vinglish

 

This old marathi haldi song got a fresh Bollywood makeover when Sridevi shook a leg in English Vinglish on this number! Perfect to be played for the bride’s haldi, Navrai Majhi is one song that will get everyone grooving.

 

 

2. Banno Teri Akheya Surmedaani – Dushmani

 

While this one is quite an old Bollywood Haldi song, it is still very popularly played as a marriage song by the bride’s side during the ceremony.

 

 

3. Chalka Chakla Re – Saathiya

 

If you are a 90s kid who is getting married now, you will know what a rage this song was when Saathiya released. Well, it’s definitely a great haldi song that you can play and dance to while the bride is getting smeared in haldi.

 

4. Kabira Encore – Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani

 

A movie that defined love, friendship and fun for millenials made its mark with the Kabira song, which is played during a haldi ceremony. This haldi song is surely one of those that you can play for your BFF’s ceremony.

 

 

Mehndi Songs

Mehndi songs played during the ceremony are a fun way to get everyone moving and grooving while the bride and her tribe paint their hands with henna! Check out this mehndi marriage songs list and download them for a crazy mehndi ceremony filled with naach-gaana and laughter!

 

1. Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna – Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge

 

This mehndi songs list will be utterly incomplete if this song doesn’t come to the top. When Raj dances with Simran on her terrace on this song, only God knows how many women have desired to play it on their mehendi. This is a classic and will always be!

 

 

2. London Thumakda – Queen

 

Kangana Ranaut as Rani has set the floor on fire with her thumkas in this mehndi song sequence of Queen. One of the most popular mehndi songs of all time, London Thumakda deserves to be played on repeat to watch all buaji’s and chachiji’s dance away!

 

 

3. Lagdi Hai Thaai – Simran

 

Yet another Kangana Raut song on this list is Lagdi Hai Thaai from Simran. It is a cute marriage song that’s perfect to play for a peppy and full-of-life bride to enjoy on her mehndi ceremony.

 

 

4. Mehndi Hai Rachne Wali – Zubeidaa

 

While this is a slow and emotional mehndi song, it is sure to set the mood right as the bride sits with her girlfriends and aunts and enjoys the vibe of the ceremony.

 

 

5. Gal Mitthi Mitthi – Aisha

 

Gal Mithi Mithi is a fun and upbeat lagan geet that the bride, groom and the entire shadi squad can dance to! After all, there’s only dancing and enjoying after the main mehendi ceremony is done, right?

 

 

6. Genda Phool – Delhi 6

 

Now, this mehndi song is for all the aunts and elder members of the family to sing and dance to! Genda Phool is a marriage song that teases the bride of how her life would be at her in-laws’ home!

 

 

7. Maahi Ve – Kal Ho Na Ho

 

Although Maahi Ve plays during Naina and Rohit’s engagement in the movie, it also makes for an exciting mehndi song, where the groom can entertain the bride while she gets her mehndi done! *this is a clue for all your girls to make your partner dance to your tunes* 😀

 

 

 

Sangeet Songs

Unlike other pre-wedding functions, sangeet is that one ceremony which doesn’t have any auspicious or religious significance. It is just to celebrate the marriage and dance and be merry for the would-be-couple. While sangeet was traditionally an all-women event, it has become all-inclusive these days. So, for all those who just need a reason to dance and have fun, sangeet is your day! Here’s a list of sangeet songs that are all-time popular!
