This sunny Santa Barbara, CA Indian wedding of Shivani and Amar was jam packed with action, captured in an incredible film by Robles Video. Pre-wedding celebrations included a colorful mehndi, with the highlight being radiant Shivani glowing in jewel tones and magnificent hair and makeup by Beauty by Lishma. Elegant Events by Nutan helmed the planning and design duties, and seamlessly executed the numerous events. The ceremony day began with a bang, with Dolled Up by Lulu armed with an arsenal of makeup brushes and glosses to dazzle the bride up for her big day. Shivani’s lush lashes and rose adorned updo made us swoon in happiness! The photos by Lin and Jirsa of Shivani and Amar’s first look are divine. Shivani was a glimmering goddess in her golden lehenga against the blue waves. The pristine grounds of the Fess Parker DoubleTree Resort were dotted with palm trees, and the champagne drapings on the elegant mandap swayed gently in the ocean breeze. Once the beautiful bride was primped and polished to perfection by Dolled Up by Lulu, she was ready for her walk down the aisle. The natural light outside lit the bride and groom perfectly, and the traditional ceremony was meaningful and went off without a hitch! Afterwards, the quick on their feet newlyweds couldn’t wait to get the party started! Shivani and Amar’s reception was pure elegance, featuring a gilded wall of florals and a shiny white dance floor.
