Today’s featured wedding is going to start off a little differently than we normally do things around here. Just to mix it up we are going to start with the bride & groom’s Maiya ceremony.  We almost never feature them on the site, but I simply couldn’t wait to share charming, homemade décor idea that one of Jennifer’s bridesmaids came up with. Priya, the brains behind this creativity, made all the rice decorations for the event!  It’s a traditional, Indian DIY idea that is a modern twist on Rangoli.

Adorable, isn’t it?!   This can be done very simply in any bright color combo using food dye and some imagination.  Whether you are using it for your Mehdni, Sangeet, or Haldi, this idea will be a hit.  Plus, the rice can be made a week in advance and layed out a day ahead of time, weather permitting of course!
