A mesmerizing second photo session awaits to be unveiled! Join me in our next feature!

I am so sad to be wrapping up my getaway to Jaipur and will now be ending my stay at the Jai Bagh Palace a little teary eyed but incredibly inspired. Maharani Nikhita floated down the aisles of the prestigious venue in a red and gold lengha that was designed with handcrafted precision and impeccable style. Event designer Dzire Flower utilized the beautiful gardens and created a classic canary yellow and red mandap that was the perfect contrast to the majestic, ethereal backdrop. If I had to really pick my favorite moment, it would definitely be the first look! Such a heartwarming and tender moment! "Our wedding turned out to be a luxury holiday for most of the guests. With all under one roof, the guests were more than happy just getting dressed and enjoying good food and music!" This is what being a Maharani is all about! You can get your dose of all the lovey-dovey down below shot by 1Plus1 Studio but the gallery is where all the love is really at.

I know, I know - we all don't want this Indian wedding to come to an end! But, it does and lucky for you, I have more love coming your way tomorrow! 

A piece of my heart will always be in India and Nikhita and Gitansh’s Indian wedding is truly what Maharani dreams are made of. Self-planned by the groom Gitansh himself, this is what you get when you blend the charm of India with modern vibes. Esha Shukla ensured this Indian bride was glowing from head to foot for her big reveal at the prestigious Jai Bagh Palace. For us Indian girls, finding that lengha can be a daunting task. Then there are the gowns that we just know were made for us, and Nikhita took only ten minutes to secure her bridal look. As you gaze through these gorgeous portraits, I have some advice for all my Indian brides from today’s featured Indian bride herself: "It's your wedding, do it your way. The months before the wedding is a mix of anxiety, nervousness, happiness, and one generally gets a bit overwhelming. Avoid experiencing all that. The day will go by like a dream and you won't get to know until you realize so much stress before was in vain.” The work of 1Plus1 Studio will pull you in and I must insist that we meet in the gallery.

One last stop for the gorgeous Indian wedding setup!

Happy Tuesday Maharanis! As I wind down into the last few days of the month of November, I wanted to present you with a love story all of us girls yearn for. Nikhita met her future Maharaja at her sister’s wedding. The couple kept in contact through social media and the connection was just there. Today, our feature is extra special because this Indian wedding was self-planned by the groom himself! Everything from the decor, to the mandap, to the entire setup; Gitansh ensured that his Indian bride was presented with nothing but the best. Heart be still. Getting married in India is a real treat because the memories are etched forever through stunning portraits throughout the country. A simple pose can be taken from ordinary to extraordinary with each of these gorgeous shots that are getting me ready for Nikhita's upcoming Indian wedding! Guests were invited to the auspicious event with personalized stationery designed at Universal Cards Jaipur to the auspicious Jai Bagh Palace for the lavish affair. To take a sneak peek into the event, head into our gallery with all the images captured by 1Plus1 Studio.
