Welcome to Maharani Weddings

Today I am going to sprinkle your screens with some serious wedding magic! Salma and Farhan's Pakistani wedding is full of so much love and Cady Boughtin has lovingly shared all the images from the days leading up to the ceremony and the grand finale. The couple took it to the outdoors to capture their pre-ceremony photos. A rustic boat, the calming ocean, and the natural terrains of California served as the backdrop for these stunning shots. Salma donned a black striped sari with floral embroidery and accompanied the designer garment with a handful of fresh blossoms. In her second shoot, the bride and groom went neutral and the jaw-dropping landscape reigned supreme. The couple created their personal wedding invitations from Minted and before they knew it, the big day was finally here! Naturally, a wedding of this caliber can only be planned by the best of the best and Khadija Hansia of Limelight Productions was there each step of the way. There is a whole world of amor in our gallery.

We have the charming Pakistani wedding celebrating the duo coming right up!

We’re so excited to dive into all the beautiful details from Sayema and Charles’ decadent reception extravaganza. The main stage area featured a lush, floral drenched backdrop with white drapes, sparkling chandeliers, and royal furniture. The couple’s love seat was surrounded by a ton of regal elements, and flickering candles and fragrant ivory bouquets added such a sophistical touch. Kudos to the decor team from 2Create Design for dreaming up such a pristine ambiance. We were in awe of Sayema, who dazzled in her red and gold lehenga. Brides, take note of this glamorous look! Dolled Up By Lulu enhanced Sayema’s look by focusing on her gorgeous eyes and shimmering cheeks, letting her natural bridal glow take center stage. We’re loving how her bouffant ‘do complemented her red dupatta, swirling henna by Farah Manekia - My Fair Bride, and sparkling earrings. Meanwhile, Charles looked super suave in his black sherwani with beaded embroidery on the collar and wrists. Every detail of this black-tie event was spearheaded by the planning and decor team from Chic Productions, and we so wish we’d scored an invite. Browse through this lovely celebration by looking through the full gallery by Lin & Jirsa Photography.

Have a wonderful Thursday, Maharanis! We'll see you all bright and early tomorrow morning!

This tale comes to us from Huntington Beach, CA, and the love between Sayema and Charles just pops from the screen. This wedding is brimming with gorgeous wedding ideas, so grab your notebooks and join us while we recap this lovely celebration. The ceremony was held at the lavish Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort. The glitzy and sleek nature of this venue is so enchanting and the perfect space for a couple to recite their sacred vows. Our Maharani Sayema shined in a classic, red and gold lehenga that paired perfectly with her glittering golden jewels and intricate mehendi by Farah Manekia - My Fair Bride. Dolled Up By Lulu was on board to pamper and primp this bride for her big reveal down the aisle, and adorned her in smokey eyes and ruby lips. The floral and decor by 2Create Designs was pure sophistication, featuring breezy linens and soft hues. The silky, ivory altar was perfectly designed for this pristine ceremony. All design and planning was orchestrated by Chic Productions, and each event flowed seamlessly.

It was all about Sayema and Charles’ dazzling chemistry and a myriad of beautiful elements for their South Asian wedding extravaganza in Huntington Beach, CA. Chic Productions expertly designed the celebration events, while 2Create Designs dreamed up the fantastical decor details. Lin & Jirsa Photography was brought on to capture every magical moment, spending ample time snapping candid moments as well as choreographed portraits. The weekend kicked off with a vivacious sangeet, and we could really use some Bollywood lessons from Sayema, Charles, and their loved ones, who danced the night away at the Via Verde Country Club venue. Sayema looked like a true Maharani in her glittering red, orange, and green lehenga, paired with an exquisite floral necklace set. Her swirling mehndi by Farah Manekia - My Fair Bride and bombshell hair and makeup by Dolled Up By Lulu were the perfect finishing touches to her glowing look. Chic Productions and 2Create Designs set up distinctive rainbow colored decor, dotted with festive umbrellas and colorful benches framing the dance floor. This delightful wedding continues in our next post with a magnificent outdoor SoCal ceremony and a black tie reception gala that will provide you will plenty of wedding inspo.

The spirit of a family was one of the biggest themes at Zoya & Jaudat's Pakistani wedding at the prestigious Hilton Garden Inn Lewisville. To see both sides of the wedding coming together with such harmony is so enlightening to my soul. Elegant Affair Southwest bathed the venue with every ounce of elegance my heart could imagine. The art of entertainment was truly evident on this magical night. Music makes the night! As quoted from the bride: "I think the guests also had the most fun with the music, DJ Riz and his team brought everyone out on the dance floor! One of the biggest memories your guest will have of your big day is how much fun they had on the dancefloor." And, of course, their surroundings. "The decor is what brings everything together. You can book the fanciest hotel location, which can take up a huge part of your budget, but it’s the decor that will be able to do it justice in the end." This was the biggest piece of advice Zoya could give to future Indian brides and we couldn't agree more! The series of events, planned by K.I. Weddings unfold behind the lens of Mir Anwar Studios and we have all the love just spilling out of our gallery. 

See you tomorrow, loves!
