Welcome to Maharani Weddings

Happy Monday, ladies! We hope you've had a great weekend and that you are ready for a new lovely and inspiring story because we never stop! Today’s love tale centers on the adorable duo of Naginah & Petrit. The big day these sweethearts were waiting, finally arrived and they decided to share it with us. So let's get ready to be charmed and enjoy this fantastic love story! We will begin our journey by taking a look at an outdoor photoshoot carried out by the folks from Dhoom Studio Photo & Video. A beautiful night in New York City became the perfect setting for this photo session, and believe us; this is one you are going to love! The unfocused lights in the background, the elegance of our lovebirds, and the multiple emotions that surrounded this magical moment created a scene so perfect that we cannot stop seeing. The way this photographic studio managed to capture the love and happiness of this couple is fantastic! Through each of these shots, you can feel the emotions that these two were feeling, and you get to see that spark in their eyes that shows how crazy they are for each other. Naginah was a vision of beauty in her white outfit, adorned with an embroidered vest with golden details. And this captivating look would not have been complete without the magnificent work of Beauty By Tamanna who took care of her beauty needs. The delicate makeup focused on her eyes and smile was the perfect touch to elevate the natural beauty of this Maharani, making her look like a princess. Petrit rocked an all-black suit with a white button-down shirt, matching his future wife's style. For more pictures of this captivating and romantic photo session, you can visit the gallery we have prepared for today. We are sure that you will enjoy it!

We are just getting a sneak peek of all the beauty that surrounded this event, so make sure to stay close if you don't want to miss the rest of it!

Hello, ladies! We are wrapping up Ayesha & Abdullah's wedding celebration with an exchange of rings ceremony, followed by a dinner gala. Our two lovebirds had the chance to celebrate their marriage in the company of their family and friends with an event full of emotions that everyone enjoyed! And we want to make a special shoutout to Visual Impact Design for the incredible decor that was put together for this event. We love the floral arrangements placed on the guest's tables and how well they combined with the ornaments that were used to ambiance this scene. Undoubtedly this delicate and on point decoration helped to take this event to the next level! Although the decoration was impressive, it was the presence of our lovebirds that stole the show! Ayesha looked flawless on her ruby and golden attire bespoke by La Dona. And Abdullah rocked a black and white traditional Sherwani suit with a burgundy turban! And we cannot stop thinking of how lucky these two are for having each other as it is easy to tell that they are soulmates! And it is thanks to the remarkable talent of JSK Photography that we get to take a peek to this captivating celebration of love. If you can't get enough of it, don't forget to take a look at the gallery that we have for today! But before you go, take a moment to taste the delicious cake that Ettore's Bakery prepared for this event, you are going to love it! 

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
Our families were friends and I knew he was "the one" not long after we started talking. Our values, goals, and personalities were reflected in one another. As we head into our one year anniversary, we are thankful for the beautiful union that life gave us. 

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
I was home one weekend and Abdullah planned a day trip to San Francisco. He walked in to the house with a beautiful bouquet of flowers that he had picked out himself. I loved them and thought it was one of his kind and thoughtful gestures (knowing how much I love flowers). We headed out to San Francisco and our first stop was Crissy Field in front of the Golden Gate Bridge. That's where Brian met us. Brian was a photographer Abdullah had hired to take some pictures of us in front of some famous landmarks. He said it would be nice to take some professional photos together. I agreed! Click after click we finally made our way over to the Palace of Fine Arts. The photographer then asked me to take a picture by myself. I was confused, but he said it was just to get a good angle and to see how the shot would come out. The next thing I know Abdullah is heading towards me, gets down on one knee, and proposes! We ended the night at a French restaurant and celebrated the beautiful day we had. 

Tell us how you went about planning your wedding, and your overall experience with the Venues, Hair & Makeup, Outfits, Decor Theme, and all of the other important details.
With only four months to plan the wedding, I knew I had to make decisions fast! There were a few "musts" on my list, but I knew I had to flexible due to the time constraints. I wanted a modern, elegant vibe, with just the right amount of traditional touch. I created a wedding spreadsheet and it became my wedding planner. I did some research, took some recommendations, and then began seeking out my vendors. I talked to all of my vendors before I decided to confirm. This was especially important - I wanted  vendors to share my vision and add a touch of their own creativity. From hair & makeup, to decor, my vendors were my partners in this wedding! They took my vision and brought it to life. My overall experience with them was wonderful and I would highly recommend each and every one of them. 

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I designed my own wedding dress and the designer made the process very seamless! I knew I wanted a traditional red with champagne gold. I also wanted an outfit that I knew I could wear again, separately, without having the full bridal look. I outlined motifs and pieces of different outfits that I liked into one document. The designer sent me color swatches and design sketches. I sent over my measurements and the husband/wife duo began the process! They sent me videos of the process and let me follow along each step of the way. Once it was completed, they shipped it over from Pakistan and I was in awe as soon as I opened the package! The pictures and videos did not do justice to the stunning craftsmanship. Thank you La Dona for making me feel like an absolute princess in my bridal dress. 

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
I loved that each and every aspect of my wedding, was designed by us. From the place cards we wrote, to the flowers we placed on the cake - our special touch surrounded us as began the start of our new life together. Our friends and family came together to support us and helped us have a beautiful wedding.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
They loved the casual vibe! They all felt welcomed around those they were even meeting for the first time. We loved this! We wanted our family and friends to feel like one big family that came together to celebrate our union.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The most memorable moment of my wedding was when I stepped into the ballroom with my dad. As he walked me down the aisle towards Abdullah, it really hit me: "this is happening, Ayesha - you're ready to start the next chapter in your life."

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Take it easy! I promise everything works out in the end and all falls into place. Be clear and concise with your vendors and trust them - it's their job to make your vision come to life. Be flexible and remember that most important part: the beginning of a beautiful journey with the one you love.

Our journey through this fantastic celebration is over! But join us tomorrow for another inspiring story!
