No real problems then - just make sure you have a clean hanky (or similar) to cover your head at relevant points of the ceremony.

You may find that male/female guests are placed at separate tables, but in my experience 'white' females (for want of a better way of putting it) are usually treated as 'honorary males' and seated with their partners.

It will...

sunny-dave; Well. Father of the Bride is a Sikh and Mother is a Hindu (I know, unusual) so have you any advice please?
Id LOVE an invite!!! X
I can`t really see that there are any no-nos really. I`ve witnessed two Indian weddings recently and everyone seemed to be having a fantastic time. These were only wedding groups who had got together in the street in the US and were living it up (I wasn`t a guest).

It will be a long day and almost certainly run well behind any schedule you may have been given. Relax and enjoy - the food will be lovely and the hospitality better.
Treat it like anybody else's wedding, go in your best.

If you're a woman, just have a scarf/shawl/pashmina with your outfit
Lucky you - you'll have a great time.
