Welcome to Maharani Weddings

Today’s featured wedding is both regal and modern with a splash of colors to enchant your screens. The color palette of shimmering blue just leaps off the screen and believe me when I say that I am extremely blown away. For her final exit at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay, Manali shined bright in a swirling anarkali that was oh so complimentary to her icy décor. The gallant garment swirled around the stage with such elegance and let's face it, what other time do you get to flaunt your inner Bollywood diva? Nirali Décor was summoned back to ensure that the spacious ballroom at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay was bathed in luxury perfection. Ketan Shah of Elegant Events proves that you really can flawlessly seam together multiple fusion events and finish them off with a grand finale! The romance of this Indian wedding captured by Akbar Sayed Photography is the epitome of a classic love story. And, you can find all the lovely images in our gallery.

Maharani Manali and Shan tied-the-knot during their Indian wedding at Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay and there are only two words that come to my mind: timeless and elegant. Each square inch of the ballroom was full of aesthetic design! Imagine walking up to a mandap full of soft, romantic lighting and fresh florals; Nirali Décor truly created a masterpiece. Crystal boughs of floral lined the pathway leading to a stage that had a flora and fauna vibe. Throughout it all, Manali was a walking wonder embellished by the magical hands of beauty artist Shekiba Najafe. One of my favorite aspects of this Indian wedding is the bridesmaids! Each one wore a coordinating, yet different, lengha to complete the wedding party. I am so obsessed with all the drop-dead-gorgeous images captured by Akbar Sayed Photography in our gallery. 

Hurry on back for the reception!

It was a cold Maryland day during Maharani Manali and Shan's Indian wedding. But, the big reveal down below simply warms my heart. Shot by Akbar Sayed Photography at the auspicious Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay, this Indian wedding is practically perfect in every way! Helming the duties of planning and design, Ketan Shah of Elegant Events was the wedding planner in charge of all the coordinating duties. One of the most treasured moments of the day had to be the first look. After being dolled up by Shekiba Najafe, Manali stepped out in class to Shan who was waiting nearby on the waterfront. Donning a lengha that was full of bold elements; this Indian bride was complete with all the South Asian flair my heart can handle. There is so much beauty waiting in the gallery that we just don't want this Indian wedding to end! 

In our next post, we will reveal Manali in all of her glory and you won't want to miss it!
