It's a stunning day in the Windy City for an outdoor Indian wedding, and lucky for us,  Sapan Ahuja Photography was on the gorgeous grounds of the Lincolnshire Marriott Resort, where blushing bride-to-be, Nidhi, was getting ready to say I do to the Raja of her dreams, Pradeep! Their sunny ceremony set up boasted a contemporary flare with a red and cream mandap and decor by Elegance Decor that would melt any minimalist's heart! Today's South Indian bride picked out the most brilliant wedding saree by VAMA Designs, and had her hair and makeup expertly styled by Makeup By Kulsoom Sakaria before heading off to exchange vows with her Prince Charming — who had the time of his life making his way over to the venue via his energetic baraat procession! We're counting down the days until Aria Fine Art Films' Filmy feature from Nidhi and Pradeep's shaadi debuts on our video blog. To get us ready for that, we'll be unveiling even more of the breathtaking photo memories all day, continuing with the ceremony itself, next! Take a peek inside the complete gallery to see the adorable couple's exit strategy while you're waiting!
