Mehndi, June 2026
Vikas and Tim.
Vikas and Tim started their wedding weekend with a Mehndi at the White House Inn in Napa, planned by Behl Events. The inn’s white Victorian house, the lawn, and the pool deck made the setting, and the dance floor ran along the pool.
It was a full sun afternoon with no shade on the floor, and the guests danced anyway. DJ Love moved between Bollywood, Punjabi, and English pop, and our dhol player Ash had the desis and the non desis dancing together until the end. The next day the celebration moved to Cornerstone Sonoma for the ceremony and reception, and we produced that too.

“DJ Love is the real deal.”
“We wanted someone who could keep the dance floor packed while seamlessly moving between Bollywood, Punjabi, and English pop music. When we asked our planner for recommendations, she had just two words: DJ Love.”
“Both our Mehndi and wedding reception dance floors were absolutely packed. Love also brought the incredible Ash on dhol, whose energy was infectious and had both the desis and the non-desis dancing together all night long. The music, the lighting, the timing, the energy, everything felt effortless and perfectly curated.”
“He didn’t feel like a vendor; he felt like part of the team. He treated our family and friends like his own.”

Wedding production ›Planning notes.
A Mehndi at the White House Inn is a daytime event on the lawn and pool deck. Plan for sun: guests will dance in it, so the music has to carry the energy, and the sound gear needs to sit where it stays out of direct heat.
The dance floor sits along the pool, so we place speakers to cover the floor and the lounge areas without pushing sound across the whole property.
