Lori & Rakesh

Lori and Rakesh’s fusion wedding festivities began with a vibrant Mehndi night, held at The Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia. It was an evening full of joy and color. Before the festivities, the couple took a stroll through the city of Philadelphia and took a trip down memory lane back to where they had their first date. Their wedding day was like no other. It was a harmonious fusion of Indian and Jewish traditions meticulously blended in to honor their heritage around their friends and family.

Riddhi & Anchit

Rhiddi and Anchit's wedding was nothing short of magical. Held on the rooftop of the Hyatt House Hotel in Jersey City, New Jersey, the celebration was a stunning blend of tradition and enchantment. Unlike many Indian weddings, this one truly honored the essence of the marriage itself. The day began shrouded in fog, but as if by magic, the clouds parted to reveal a sunlit wonder, making the event even more extraordinary. Celebrating the day after Christmas only added to the sense of wonder and festivity, making their wedding even more unforgettable.
