Welcome to Maharani Weddings

Happy Thursday, friends! The fabulous photographers from Events by SPL are treating us to some of the most deliciously delightful Indian wedding details, and we're sharing it all with you! Meet today's blushing bride, Anjali, and the Raja of her dreams Pritesh! This adorable duo is getting ready to exchange I dos at The Westin Buckhead Atlanta, and are donning their ceremony best and posing for some unforgettable first look portraits! Maharani Anjali is as beautiful as can be in a custom designed bridal lengha by Ranisha Patel of Binari Art, adorned in a striking set of gold wedding jewelry. Her Prince Charming is devilishly dashing in his traditional sherwani and accessories, and we can't get enough of the endearing moment his Princess laid eyes on him — absolutely adorable! Erica Bogart Beauty flawlessly styled Anjali's makeup and gave her a picture perfect glow. Before we bring you all the incredible baraat and ceremony details, you have to check out some of the sensational pre-wedding fashions in the complete gallery!

Maharani Anjali on how she met the Raja of her dreams, Pritesh:

"Pritesh and I have been a part of the same friend group for over 10 years now. After college, we grew closer and closer and began liking each other. It was then on Christmas Eve 2012 that he asked me out on a first date at Einstein's Brunch in Atlanta. Our relationship grew from friendship to love over the years and now to husband and wife!"

On her Raja's romantic proposal:

"At the time, Pritesh was in Business School in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. We were in a long distance relationship and I had no idea he was in Atlanta, surprising me with a proposal. He was planning this day with 20 of our closest friends and family on the beautiful rooftop of our friends condo in Atlanta. On June 21, I was at brunch with my girlfriends which soon turned into a beautiful proposal. They somehow convinced me to go to our friends condo. As the elevator doors opened, I see Pritesh waiting outside with a single rose in his hand (remember, I thought he was in Chapel Hill) The moment Pritesh got down on one knee, it started pouring rain. It was the most romantic moment of my life. My mom always tells me rain symbolizes good luck, but at the time, my vision was blurred with rain drops and tears of joy. I was finally going to marry the man of my dreams!"

Meet me back here later today for some breathtaking wedding moments from Anjali and Pritesh's ceremony!

With the help of MUA, Beauty By NG Nida Gazi, today's Indian bride has let her hair down and marveled us all with her magnificent reception makeup for her post-ceremony soirée at the DoubleTree Hilton Norwalk. She's wearing a midnight blue lengha that sparkles brilliantly like the night sky, and her brand new hubby, Mithil, is dashing as ever in a finely tailored tux, as the two rock it out on the dance floor with the help of their DJ from 3D Sounds. These fantastic reception highlights, captured by the phenomenal Chico Photo, illustrate just how fun our newlweds are as they show off their dance moves. Their planning and design team, Bridal & Event Lounge, has turned the ballroom venue into one spectacular party setting with glittering details from their elegant floral and decor. The adorable duo worked with Pacific Patisserie to create the wedding cake of their dreams — a three-tier, white work of art with just the right amount of bling. You can catch even more from their incredible Indian wedding event in the complete gallery if you're still itching for extra — we know we are!

Maharani Puja, on what she enjoyed most about planning her dream wedding:

"Coming up with ideas that were impossible, but somehow turning them into a possibility. I would just share tons and tons of ideas with my family and friends and they were just somehow down to do everything! I decided I wanted to dance down the Haldi ceremony with my brothers! And all my brothers were down to dance, even though they're not the best dancers!!! Even the craziest of ideas! Especially my parents..they never said no to anything! Whether it was bringing a Rickshaw into the hall on my garba night, or flying out a singer I found on Youtube to come sing at the wedding! Who by the way was beyond amazing! her name is Lisa Mishra. These little things make a wedding unique! Everyone can have a wedding, but making it your own is what makes everything worth it!"

On her and her Raja's first dance song selection:

"We danced to Samjawah, and then added in Jaati Hu Mein, Oh baby don't break my heart, and then Hero #1, and finished off with Samjawah again. We both aren't the romantic type, I just didn't want people staring at us while we danced! We can do that in private, haha! So we decided to make things a little fun to go along with our personalities! I'm a huge fan of all the 90's Hindi songs."

That's it for today, my dears! If you haven't already, don't forget to check out our amazing wedding feature on the Platinum Guide today, and join us tomorrow for more wedding inspiration!

Welcome back, dolls! We're at the DoubleTree Hilton Norwalk in Southern California, for an exclusive look at some sensational ceremony highlights from Puja and Mithil's Indian wedding! Bridal & Event Lounge planned and designed one seriously unforgettable event for the two lovebirds, and these pics prove it! Following his baraat, where he was accompanied by a trusty steed from Enchanted Carriages, Raja Puja waited in anticipation for the Maharani of his dreams to make her way down the aisle and meet him at their glittery gold and red wedding stage. Fortunately for Puja, the warning signs from her mini Maharanis did not deter her Prince — not a thing in the world could change his mind! Our blushing Indian bride looked like a million bucks thanks to hair and makeup guru, Beauty By NG Nida Gazi. We love these vibrant moments photographed by Christina Chico, of Chico Photo, from the happy couple's vow exchange. Every single shot captures our eyes and our hearts and makes us all the more eager to see what's coming up next! For now, you can head into the complete gallery for a sneak peek at what's ahead!

Maharani Puja, on her most memorable wedding moment:

"Watching my husband, as I walked down the isle with my parents, was my most special moment. As Lisa Mishra was singing my walk down the aisle song Din Shagna de."

Details from our newlyweds' extraordinary reception are up next, so check back soon!
