Pallaki/Doli Decorations

           The most appropriate English word of 'Doli' is ' Palanquin'. I lkie to explain how this word finds a place in English dictionary. The English first made their colony in Bengal region. At that time 'PALKI' was the only cart for the women of royal families, because then women were not allowed to travel open out of the door curtain. The British royal families also used 'palki' meaning of 'Doli' in Bangla language is 'Palki'. From this word the  english word 'PALANQUIN' came in english.

         In today's modern world, we want to give our brides the same royal experience of ancient times by giving them a departure  from the wedding venue in beautifully decorated Doli or Palki which will be carried off by 6 or 8 men in a decorated Uniform to give a royal see off to the bride.




        Make your entrance traditionally and uniquely. It is your special day, make it one to remember for both you and your family. A wedding doli is the ideal way to enter your wedding, it can also be used for your mehandi and  can be accompained with professional Dhol players.
