The Platinum Guide Blog

Color, an illusion of our senses that capture what is being reflected by light. And color and light indeed are what our gorgeous feature of today is all about. Coming from warm Phoenix, Sirisha & Bhushan's celebration is a South Indian affair that you can't miss! The characteristics I absolutely adore about these weddings are the vivid pigments and the glittery luminosity of the attires. They truly give a sense of transcendence and spirituality that is so rare and mystic that very few words can be used to describe it. Like love, you can't explain it but you feel it and thus know it exists. For such an important ceremony, it was absolutely a must to have a wedding planner you could trust. Apropos Creations came to the picture with their planning and design skills and success meant the smiles, heartwarming moments and ravishing dances we are going to witness. The image wizard? Rachel Leintz Photography of course. So, want to experience what went on for this dazzling jubilee? Dive into today's gallery and see it for yourself.

Stick around for part two!

The moment our couple had been waiting for so long finally arrived! Maharani Alli was absolutely glowing for the main ceremony. Shining like a true Maharani, she came out wearing a bronze toned saree with details in gold and burgundy that left me totally speechless. Truly one of the most beautiful sarees we have seen so far! After such a knockout beauty walked down the aisle and tied the knot with our lucky groom Shivan in a gorgeous ceremony at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, the guests and newlyweds headed down to the reception hall to start with the celebration of the huge milestone reached. The couple recruited our well know friends from Elegant Events Planning & Design and Partyland Event Design Boutique to assist them with all the details that made this wedding a definite success. If they were looking for the best, they sure did find them! Magic descended for our couple's first dance and we are just loving the navy blue tones of our bride's outfit, delicately swinging as the sweet melodies of music carried them to that place in which only their love inhabited. I'm telling you, ladies, this feature is total bliss. So without further ado, here you have it, Alli & Shivan's full gallery thanks to Studio Nine Photography. 

More ideas to come, ladies, be sure to check us out!

It is time for us to kick start our week big time, ladies! For that, we have exactly what you need. As you can recall, a couple of weeks ago we featured Alli & Shivan's highlight reel. It was a gorgeous cinematic experience that left us wanting for more because of its sophistication and incredible taste. Today, and thanks to the prodigious talent of Studio Nine Photography, we are back with their marvelous wedding album. For this first installment, we are going to be witnessing the delightful photo shoot and the nerve-wracking moments prior to the ceremony at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. Our enchanting Maharani Alli's dolling up process before the spree was truly magical. A glittering glam ritual! Bella Angel assisted her with the hair and makeup and you can almost feel the butterflies flying inside our bride's belly as the big moment approached. All of this as Raja Shivan and his groomsmen prepared with the ravishing attires and exotic dance moves that would later dazzle every single guest attending. Such a heartwarming celebration couldn't go unnoticed so head to our full gallery and enjoy!

Don't go anywhere, queens, part two is yet to come.

After witnessing the gorgeous series of rituals and the main ceremony that led Krutika & Kartheek to swear everlasting love to one another, it was time for some serious dancing and partying Bollywood style. For this second installment, Regeti's Photography and their well-known talent, bring for us what went on after the couple tied the knot. The Hyatt Regency Reston hosted the reception gala and we are just madly in love with the entire idea and color of it. Yadeein Weddings and Seven Ivory Brides tag teamed to assist our lovebirds with the planning & design and the floral & decor respectively. An incredibly looking bash that saw our newlyweds celebrate with their loved ones, and have the time of their lives. It isn't a party if none is dancing. Lucky for our couple, that is just not possible in Indian weddings. The crew from DynastyAV understood that very well and were in charge of literally lighting up the place and dropping the ravishing beats that made everyone jump to their feet and start moving. You have to see it to believe it! So here it is, ladies, today's featured Indian wedding gallery.

Remember, Maharanis, a new feature every day! We count on you!

We are loving the energy that can be felt from Krutika & Kartheek's love and that is a hint of the bash they had. One of the most beautiful couples we've seen for sure. All the traditional celebrations that you want in an Indian wedding can be seen in today's feature. Our gorgeous Maharani Krutika, recruited one of the best to assist her with hair and makeup, of course, we are talking about Styles By Swati - Salon SBS. An old friend that surely knows how to doll up our brides and make them even more stunning. For the traditional mehndi designs that we all love, the team from Naseem Fam Henna Services brought their talent and crafted the beautiful shapes and figures that the bride rocked in all the rituals. An eastern princess on the works! The always fun Sangeet was held at the National Conference Center- Leesburg, as well as the main ceremony, and let me tell you, it was looking perfect, the kind of perfection and glam only a true Maharani would approve! Want to see more? Join us in today's gallery for part one of Krutika & Kartheek's wedding.
