Welcome back, Maharanis! Lynette J Photography brings us gorgeous images of this North Indian Hindu ceremony held at the InterContinental Dallas. Elegant Affair caters to every detail, including the lush jai malas the couple exchange during the event—those red roses are in full bloom! I love how the crystal gem work adds luster to Maharani Vicki's lengha and I'm still in awe of her veil. This picturesque wedding has two other noteworthy additions: the super adorable mini Maharani all dressed up (so sweet!) and the decidedly regal cream and gold mandap with amber accents (stunning!). To see more of this radiant affair, check out the whole gallery!
Come right back to see their shimmering reception!

Elegant Affair creates an illustrious ballroom ambiance with dazzling decor that includes hanging votive candles, willowy silver branches, and violet orchids. Simply gorgeous! Are you taking notes in your idea book, Maharanis? I love the Victorian-style black chandeliers suspended from the ceiling of the InterContinental Dallas. This venue is picture perfect and sets the stage for all the glittering crystal set up at the sweetheart table. And how about the rich color of this Maharani's sparkling lengha? Lynette J Photography captures dazzling images of this fabulous event, both in bright color and elegant black and white. To see even more, browse the entire collection in the gallery!
See you tomorrow, Maharanis, with more glamorous Indian weddings!
Sometimes, Maharanis, I must say I'm a pretty lucky gal to get to write about Indian weddings all day. Especially when weddings like today's cross my desk, I just have to pinch myself! This gorgeous wedding with Kate Byars Photography begins with an outdoor sangeet with a pool on one side, and a beautiful bay on the other! Our bride is Nikisha, who is all sorts of fabulous. With the help of Bridal Elements Hair & Makeup, who also creates her bridal mehndi, she looks simply radiant!
The Indian wedding ceremony begins next!
Kate Byars Photography meets up with Maharani Nikisha and groom Priyesh as they head to the mandap on their wedding day. The site of Swaminarayan Temple is a little bit of India right in Atlanta, Georgia -- whowuddathunk? Though the temple was constructed in just 17 months, it included 1.3 million volunteer hours and 34,000 handcarved pieces from India. The majestic location makes it a perfect Indian wedding venue for these lovebirds, who are all about grandeur and making that "Holy moley!" statement.
Okay ladies, don't go far, because their FABULOUS Indian wedding ceremony is about to begin!
From the dholi to the mandap, this Indian wedding is meant to floor you. This Maharani enlisted an army of wedding vendors: from cinematographers Pacific Pictures in California to decorators Occasions by Shangri-la from Florida to make this dream wedding come true. KIS (cubed) Events helps pull off the planning of this extraordinary event at Swaminarayan Temple, an Indian wedding venue that I am totally in love with. Kate Byars Photography follows bride Nikisha and groom Priyesh to their beautiful modern wedding altar. Does it get any better than that flower chandelier?!
Yup, I've got even more "OMG" moments on the way. The Indian wedding reception is coming up next!
