There are so many fun things about cultural weddings, and Hindu weddings are so exceptional.  I think one of the most fun parts of being a Hindu bride is that you get two wedding outfits, and not just one!

Dharna & Samir prepared for their weddings and met up for a quick portrait session in their first outfits before the ceremony, then in the evening the whole process started over again.  I can’t decide which look I like best, but I know I love the variety and colors from both parts of the day!

I am working hard to catch up on blogging so there will be more photos posted soon!

Dharna's diamond and henna tattoo

This was Dharna's look for the first part of the day, very elegant and colorful with the traditional head covering

I was so astounded by the light in this hallway.

I loved her hair like this!

Dharna has the most beautiful smile! It is contagious!

We had very little time but I found a little spot outside the hotel with great fill light!
