The Masquerade…

What is a Masquerade?

An elegant ball which normally includes the guest wearing a mask, it was made popular in the 15th century particularly by the Venetians. Masquerade ball were sometimes set as a game among the guests. The masked guests were supposedly dressed so as to be unidentifiable. This would create a type of game to see if a guest could determine each others’ identities. This added a humorous effect to many masques and enabled a more enjoyable version of typical balls. We don’t expect any of that happening in our party, unless of course you intentionally want to be unidentified.

Why Masquerade?

You must be thinking we are out of our minds to have a Masquerade themed engagement. We know it’s not very Indian, but we wanted to try something different. We were toying with a few concepts but finally settled with the Masquerade. I like how “The Masquerade” sounds; it has a nice ring to it. Besides, we love the whole mysterious & elegant feel to it.

What to dress in?

You can come in your finest Indian outfit or what ever you think is appropriate. We are not doing the entire Venetian ball works, just the mask part of it. So live up to the Masquerade theme and don’t forget to bring your mask. You don’t want to be left out now, do you?
