Springfield, PA Indian Wedding by Zee Anna Photography

April 10, 2019 Posted by: Shawna Comments

Maharanis, I'm so glad you could make it on time to witness the lavish ceremony of Dipna and Atit who are making their love official in a traditional Hindu ritual celebration inside the splendid and elegant Springfield Country Club! The event was a romantic whirlwind filled with the most extraordinary decors and charming details captured by the camera of Zee Anna Photography. Aura Events and Entertainment took the couple's wedding vision and made it a reality while Design House Decor elevated the decadent wedding ceremony stage with abundant greenery and lush white dripping florals that created a dream garden-like affair! The graceful bride went for a glorious blue lehenga that was embellished with exquisitely detailed embroidery patterns in light blue while her flawless-fresh glowing look was a creation of the glam team of Flawless Beauty by Pauline. The stylish bridal party crew looked absolutely ravishing in her white lehengas that charmingly matched the groomsmen's Kurta Pajamas stag patterns and cleverly made the couple stand out among them! Take a look at the heartfelt nuptials, flickering sacred fire and stunning decors in the complete gallery!

Springfield, PA Indian Wedding by Zee Anna Photography

April 10, 2019 Posted by: Shawna Comments

Maharanis! Get comfy and sit down for this super lovely Indian wedding packed with Platinum Guide members professionals! Zee Anna Photography is our stellar photographer today who kindly shared with us the beautiful wedding album of Dipna and Atit which is a boost of inspiration from the first page! These two sweethearts prepared a whole array of events with the planning experts of Aura Events and Entertainment and they all displayed a unique style and production! The wonderful Cedar Gardens Banquet hosted a big mehndi ceremony for our Maharani Dipna to have her arms and legs decorated with a lovable mehndi design as she makes her journey on to marriage. Following the special henna night, the sought-after folks from Design House Decor endowed the Sangeet ballroom of the Springfield Country Club with a dreamy garden-like atmosphere! They added a wonderful pop of bright yellow color to the fabulous stage with lovely yellow flowers and hanging lemons to create a fresh-spring mood that was the perfect beginning of this happily ever after accompanied by delicious treats by Rollin Below 0! Let's remember the charming footage that SWAT Films unveiled not long ago and let's discover the heartfelt imagery in our full gallery!

Clearwater, FL Bengali Wedding by L'Atelier Lumière

March 26, 2019 Posted by: Shawna Comments

Welcome back, Maharanis! Now we join Debarati and Niraj at their incredible wedding reception at the wonderful halls of the Hilton Clearwater Beach with all the beautiful photos caught by L'Atelier Lumière International Photographie! The glam bash decor was made by Maharani Designs and included two dreamy panels of white flowers perfectly built inside two majestic frames all in white and golden hues. Meanwhile, the tables were covered with bold purple linens and tall floral centerpieces. Chantilly Cakes created a four-layered wedding cake decorated with an adorable Indian couple topper and the sought - after wedding entertainer, Pavan Events, played the best Bollywood music to kick off the party time! The queen of the night, Maharani Debarati flaunted a glorious blue evening ensemble and long, loose wavy hair, a complete hairstyle creation of Sumaiya Waheed and Michele Renee The Studio. Her choker necklace made an absolute statement while her soulmate and new beau Niraj also nail it with an elegant blue and black lapel suit! We have all the pretty details in the gallery just waiting for your inspection!

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
I met Neal through the Coffee Meets Bagel app! We both work in NYC, so we would meet up after work and go on dinner dates. I knew he was "the one" on one of our early dates when he spent half the night making a picnic for us from scratch! He had been paying attention to my favorite foods and made a very thoughtful and personal meal and even brought me my favorite ice cream!

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
I was one of those kids who grew up dreaming of being an astronaut, and Neal has spent a lot of time with me in space museums. So it was perfect that Neal proposed to me in a planetarium under the stars! He asked the planetarium to play my favorite song and had the words "Will You Marry Me" projected into the stars! He also had all of our close friends hiding in the audience and it was such a treat to have them there.

Tell us how you went about planning your wedding, and your overall experience with the Venues, Hair & Makeup, Outfits, Decor Theme, and all of the other important details.
Neal and I knew that we wanted our wedding to incorporate a lot of things that were near and dear to us. We had our dream venue, but we needed help getting the rest of the details in place. My wedding planner, Sokha from Apsara Events, was instrumental in helping me connect with vendors and making sense out of my decor ideas. I found my makeup artist (Sumaiya Waheed) through another Florida wedding on Maharani Weddings, and my mendhi artist (Amrita Henna) through Instagram! Our photographers (Latelier Lumiere) and videographers (Riant Films) had such delightful personalities that it was super easy to work with them and have fun with our photoshoots! Our guests are still talking about our DJ (DJ Pavan) because he had such an upbeat vibe!

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
Although I was a Bengali bride, I knew I didn't want to wear a sari. I did, however, want to wear a traditional red outfit. I worked with the team at Nazranaa in New Jersey, and picked out a beautiful red lengha with antique gold floral detail. I really loved my wedding outfit, and felt extremely comfortable in it on my wedding day! The team at Nazranaa also helped me design an amazing reception outfit!

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
The most enjoyable part of the planning process was getting to spend a lot of time with my brother! He lived near our venue, so his house was our home base for a lot of our planning process. It was also very enjoyable to get to spend some time with our planner and photographers outside of our usual wedding chores!

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
Our wedding weekend timeline was pretty relaxed, so our guests had the opportunity to go to the hotel spa, relax on the beach or in one of the Hilton's swim up bar pools, and do morning yoga on the beach - and they took advantage of it all! We loved that people were able to have a little vacation while also celebrating with us!

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
There was a moment before our formal "Mr and Mrs" introduction when we were waiting and were very nervous about performing our choreographed first dance. The attendant at the gift shop saw us practicing in the hallway and told us about her and her husband's love story and gave us the confidence to get through that dance!

For events other than your ceremony, please tell us as much as you would like about the decor, style, dances, and all the special details.
For our sangeet, we went with a non-traditional theme of "A Night Under the Stars" (which matched our invitations!). We had our dance floor on the beach with star string lights overhead, and fairy lights as our table centerpieces. The style was beach casual (we served tacos!) mixed with a touch of elegance. For our reception, we went with a very romantic vibe. There was a lot of light and touches of gold, blush, and greenery. Our decorator (Maharani Designs) brought my visions to life and I was speechless when I walked into each event!

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Firstly, take care of yourself! Being a bride is like having a second job, so don't forget to take time to relax. Also, go out of your comfort zone and talk to guests other than your close friends. Many of them may be your parents friends, but this is the perfect opportunity to get to know them, and for them to get to know a little about you! Plus it'll make your parents happy!

Anything else you want to tell us? We'd love to hear all about your other details! (jewelry, mehndi, venue, cake, bouquets, etc.)
My husband and I picked our venue because of our previous vacations at Clearwater Beach. My brother lives in Tampa and we always had a great time in the area, so we knew our guests would as well. The Hilton Clearwater Beach was actually my favorite venue before I even met Neal! Being on Clearwater Beach just elicits a sense of calm and happiness from me and I wanted our close friends and family to be able to share that feeling!

Maharanis, please check back tomorrow for more wedding inspiration!

After a formal outdoor photo session with the charming duo, the photo team of Studio KSD snapped more images of the soulmates indoors the splendid Sheraton Mahwah Hotel, which was the venue picked to begin with a colorful night of Garba Raas dance that kicked off their happily ever after. The room was a sea of colors thanks to the vibrant decorations provided by Nirali Decor that decked the space with a lively theme! Beautiful drapery fanning out and traditional props scattered all over the place and a magnificent Jhula were just a few of the many elements that created a joyful ambiance for the traditional Dandiya Stick Dance night! Dressed in equally cheery colors, Maharani Komal donned a teal color lehenga skirt, and a fuchsia color choli that she paired with a yellow dupatta, her over-the-shoulder hairstyle created by Makeup by Shaili gave her that extra touch of playfulness to the entire look!
