Known for making a Maharani's wedding dream come true, Shilpa Patel Events plans an amazing South Indian wedding for Shilpa and Sudhir in Southern California! The talented Greycard Photography gives us a first look at the pre-wedding photo shoot of the couple and the bridal party. The beautiful bride looks like a porcelain doll as she strikes a pose in flawless hair and makeup by Shear Artistry Salon. I am loving the long, traditional braid enveloped in fresh flowers! It should come as no surprise why this dashing duo is so photogenic, considering they are fashion models as well! There's so much more to come, and with vendors like—Enchanted Carriages and Deepti's Floral Designs & Mandaps lending their skills to this wondrous event, you don't want to miss a thing! In the meantime, take a tour of the gallery for more bridal fashion inspiration!

Matei Horvath Photography now gives us a beautiful glimpse at all the fun that was had at the California reception which takes place at the Estancia La Jolla. One thing this wedding has been full of, is ENTERTAINMENT! Every ceremony is filled with music and dancing and Cherie and Janaka's reception is no exception. Not only did My DJs keep the dance floor crowded all night, but the couple even had LA Follies perform! I hear the guests loved the performance to pieces! All in all, what a lovely couple and what a beautiful wedding! Relive every moment, from the very beginning, in the gallery!

Welcome back, my lovelies! Feast your eyes on the divine decor at this royal reception which takes place at the luxurious Estancia La Jolla in Southern California! The amazing Matei Horvath Photography shares with us a darling display of all the elegant details. I adore the floral centerpieces of rich pastel shades of cream, pink and lemon chiffon roses by Lupita's Flowers. The sweetheart stage is richly encapsulated with a gorgeous array of flowers. The four-tier champagne-colored cake, which looks to me very reminiscent of the flapper era, is beautifully enveloped in pearls and lace. I always appreciate the tiny details such as the engraved spatula and monogrammed dance floor. It's those personalized touches that really capture what the day is truly about — Cherie & Janaka. Check out even more of the reception decor in the gallery!

See the couple enjoying their reception, next!

We've seen this beautiful couple's Indian-Chinese fusion ceremony  but now it's time to see their outdoor Florida reception, thanks to the photo-capturing skills of Nami Dadlani Photography Studio! Pawar Inc. not only helped the bride to be worry-free by taking care of all the planning, but they also provided the lovely reception floral and decor! I adore the picnic style set-up. The navy and white tablecloths resting underneath the vibrant yellow and white floral arrangements are a stunning combo! As the sun goes down, lighting by Pavan Events casts a romantic mood. I hear all the guests loved the mouthwatering cuisine by Madras Catering + Event Production, who have mastered the art of gourmet cooking! And girls, just look at that treat of a wedding cake by Ganache Bakery! I'd kill for a slice right about now (or any time of the day for that matter). What a joyous event! Relive every detail, from start to finish, in the gallery!

From the bride, on the first dance:

"Crazy Love," by Michael Buble. The words just clicked for us. I chose it for us. We also both love his music."

On special moments:

"My little brother, Raj, stepped up to be the emcee to help tie everything together. My brother, Dipak, played us some songs on his guitar. He's always been so gifted with that. My husband's nephew, Ben, at the age of 8, wrote the most sweet and thoughtful speech which he read at the reception that brought us all to tears. During the reception, my brother and close friends - Neena and Neeta - found some props and we decided to play a hilarious impromptu game of limbo. My mom arranged for a surprise chocolate fondue set-up (one of my dessert faves)."

Sounds yummy! Hope you enjoyed this wedding as much I did!
