Watch Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' Incredible Pre-Wedding Sangeet Dances
The wedding weekend of Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas is officially underway. Throughout the weekend’s festivities, the bride and groom have, for the most part, kept an understandably low profile on social media (hey, they’re busy). Yesterday, however, we got a glimpse of the festivities in a joint post put up just hours after they reportedly tied the knot in the first of two ceremonies this weekend. But it wasn’t of the wedding: Instead, it was a gallery of the stunning Mehendi pre-wedding ceremony with family and friends late last week. This morning, we got another look at the festive long weekend: Chopra posted a peek into her decked-out pre-wedding sangeet on Friday night, and it looks incredible.
Among the many pre-wedding events that take place, the sangeet, which takes place in the evening after the Mehendi ceremony, is one of the most lively. Sangeet ceremonies bring together both sides of the soon-to-be-family with music, dance routines, and singing—and since we know that both the bride and groom boast impressive musical chops (let’s not forget Priyanka’s pop career), it’s no surprise that the evening turned into a full-on musical production.
Unfolding on an enormous stage, the Chopra-Jonas sangeet included enormous musical performances from the bride and groom, as well as their families (we see you, Joe Jonas). In Chopra’s own post about the ceremony, the actress addressed how special this marriage ceremony really was to her:
“It all began as a fierce song & dance competition between the families but ended, as always, as a huge celebration of love,” Chopra captioned her Instagram of the event. “Nick and I were looking forward to the Sangeet (musical evening), another pre wedding ritual.. and to see what each side had put together. And what a performance it was. Each family telling our stories through song and dance, filled with lots of laugher and love. We were both filled with gratitude for the effort, the love and the laughter and will carry the memories of this special evening for the rest of our lives. It is an amazing start to a lifetime of togetherness for our families and friends.. #grateful.”
There was a stage. There was fancy colorful lighting. There were incredibly choreographed dance numbers. In short, this celebration was one for the books.
