Ceremonial Bliss

6 months later

Y/n and Taehyung, along with Saanvi and Jungkook, sat on the stage, their faces gleaming with the golden hue of turmeric as everyone applied haldi to them. The joyous colours of the wedding festivities were starting to reflect on the couples' faces, and the atmosphere buzzed with excitement and laughter. Traditional music is played in the background, adding to the festive ambience.

Today marked the Haldi, Mehendi, and Sangeet ceremonies for both couples. After receiving government approval, the wedding date was set, and anticipation has been building ever since. Taehyung and Jungkook's families, along with all the BTS members, arrived in India a few days before the wedding. They spent time sightseeing and preparing for the celebrations.

Everyone then travelled to Jaipur for the destination wedding, a city renowned for its royal heritage and stunning architecture. A breathtaking resort had been booked, exuding an ancient charm blended with modern amenities. The resort was adorned with intricate decorations, colourful flowers, and twinkling lights, creating a magical setting. The bride, groom, their families, and relatives all stayed there, with all the wedding functions and rituals planned to take place at this magnificent venue.

For the Haldi ceremony, everyone dressed in yellow traditional attire, adding to the vibrant theme. The morning sun casts golden rays, enhancing the serene beauty of the event. Relatives and friends gathered around the couples, singing, dancing, and joyfully applying the turmeric paste.

Jimin, with a mischievous grin, approached Jungkook with a bowl full of turmeric and promptly poured it over his head. "Wow, satisfying," Jimin chuckled. "Finally, revenge complete! No more calling me shorty."

Jungkook, gritting his teeth, responded, "Now you see what I'm going to do, shorty!" He grabbed some turmeric and chased after Jimin.

Laughter erupted as everyone watched the playful chase. Jimin ran behind Y/n, seeking refuge. "Princess, save me from this muscular bunny!" he pleaded.

Jungkook, advancing toward Y/n, said, "Lomdi, move aside. Today, no one can save Shorty Hyung from me."

"Alright, alright, enough," Y/n laughed. "Why are you turning the Haldi ceremony into a battleground?"

With playful teasing and laughter, the ceremony concluded. Everyone took showers and enjoyed a hearty lunch before diving into dance practice for the evening's Sangeet.

A friendly competition was brewing for the Sangeet, pitting the girls against the boys. From the boys' side, everyone except Jungkook and Taehyung was participating. On the girls' side, all the girls except Saanvi and Y/n were getting ready to perform. The practice sessions were intense and spirited, with everyone eager to outshine the other team.

The boys’ room was filled with laughter and shouts as they perfected their dance moves. Jungkook and Taehyung watched their friends with amusement, occasionally offering tips and encouragement. In the girls' room, the atmosphere was just as lively, with the girls practising their coordinated steps and cheering each other on.

Y/n decided to take a break and brought juice for the girls. "Okay, girls, take it easy. It’s not a real competition. Take some rest and refresh yourselves with this juice," she said, handing out the drinks.

As everyone took a break, Saanvi's youngest sister, Chanchal, spoke up. "The boys are practising a lot... should we go and check on them?"

Y/n's cousin added, "They won’t let us in, Y/n di. We might lose! Do something."

"Alright, I’ll try to sneak a peek," Saanvi said with a mischievous smile. She headed toward the boys' room, her heart pounding with excitement. When she reached the door, she tiptoed to the window and tried to open it quietly. Just then, Jungkook caught her from behind. "You know, cheating is a bad thing, baby," he teased, his voice low and playful.
