San Diego, CA Indian Wedding by Samson Productions

If Bollywood met beachfront bliss, you'd get Prutha & Sam's wedding in San Diego. Hosted at the gorgeous Hilton San Diego Bayfront, their celebration was a technicolor explosion of love, laughter, and lehengas—with just the right amount of drama (read: pet in a convertible). From start to finish, this wedding delivered "Wow" with a capital W.

The festivities kicked off with a wildly fun haldi ceremony that was anything but low-key. Friends and family went all in. Are you even doing haldi if your outfit isn't stained yellow from turmeric and joy? With marigold garlands, golden vibes, and a cheeky "HALDI" sign reminding guests of the reason for the season, it was sunshine and selfies all around. But none of this magic would've been possible without the organizational brilliance of Subham Events by Kavita. With a knack for blending creativity and precision, Kavita and her team ensured that every event ran flawlessly and every space felt like a dream. From coordinating back-to-back functions to creating moments of calm amid the excitement, they handled it all with the poise of a seasoned pro.

And then there was Glamorized by Penny Kohli, the glam goddess behind Prutha's radiant looks. From haldi-ready glow to bridal royalty in deep red, Penny ensured that Prutha looked flawless in every frame. Guests were well-fed and happy thanks to the pre-wedding & lunch from Jay Bharat Foods LA  and the reception dinner from Manohar's Delhi Palace. Dessert dreams came true with a stunning confection by A Piece of Cake by Pavani, while Dhamaka Productions kept the dance floor buzzing all night long. And just when you thought it couldn’t get more electric, Shambhu Drums brought the tabla to life with beats that stirred the soul.

Sam & Prutha's sunset moment by the water was swoon-worthy—yes, the yacht photobombed, but we're not mad about it. That golden hour dip-and-kiss? Frame it. Forever. And then there was Prutha's bridal look—can we say showstopper? Draped in a richly embroidered deep red lehenga and traditional jewelry, she looked every bit the regal queen walking down the mirrored aisle under a floral canopy of dreams. The aesthetic vision came to life with Sacheens Decor & Events, transforming each venue into a vibrant wonderland. Think floral arrangements that pop with personality, statement pieces that wow without overwhelming, and design elements that celebrate tradition with a modern twist. Their use of color, texture, and spatial flow turned every corner into a photo-op—and trust us, there were many taken.

Credit where it's dazzlingly due—Samson Productions didn't just capture Prutha & Sam's wedding;  they bottled its essence. Every image radiates intention and artistry, balancing bold editorial elegance with the warmth of candid, unfiltered moments. From the vibrant haldi ceremony bursting with color and character to the emotional glances during the vow exchange, their team masterfully wove together a visual narrative that reads like a feature film and feels like a family album. The richness of each frame, the depth of emotion, and the crisp storytelling reveal a deep understanding of lighting and angles but also of love, culture, and celebration.

With a dream team and a stunning couple, this wedding was a masterpiece in motion.
