Dashain · Vijaya Dashami
Dashain is the festival that turns Nepal back toward home. For fifteen days in September or October, offices half-empty, buses fill with people returning to their villages, elders place jamara behind children's ears and tika on their foreheads, and the whole country slows down for family.
About this collection
Dashain is the festival that turns Nepal back toward home. For fifteen days in September or October, offices half-empty, buses fill with people returning to their villages, elders place jamara behind children's ears and tika on their foreheads, and the whole country slows down for family. Dreamy Bouquet curates Dashain gifts for every relationship: lokta-wrapped hampers of dry fruits, mithai and handmade chocolate for grandparents and parents; personalised frames and mugs for the cousins you see once a year; corporate hampers for clients, colleagues and employees (with company logo on request); and small keepsake boxes for the friends you'd otherwise only meet at Dashain. Same-day delivery across Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur; next-day to Pokhara, Chitwan, Butwal and Biratnagar. Every order includes a handwritten note in Nepali or English — write it at checkout and our scribe inscribes it exactly as you write it.
Dashain's big day is Vijaya Dashami — the morning elders receive tika and jamara from the eldest down, and the photograph everyone frames. Gifts that arrive before Dashami reach the family table for that morning; our delivery calendar across Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur fills ten days ahead, so book the slot when you book the leaves.
Corporate Dashain runs on its own clock. HR teams ordering hampers for staff and clients should confirm quantities by mid-September: we print company logos on lokta sleeves, build tiered hampers by seniority if needed, and deliver office-to-office across the Valley on your schedule. Single hamper orders keep flowing till Ghatasthapana; bulk orders do not.
Outside the Valley, we deliver next-day to Pokhara, Chitwan, Butwal, Biratnagar and Hetauda — the routes every Dashain-bound bus takes. Write your note in Nepali or English at checkout and our scribe copies it by hand; elders read cards, not screens.
