Hello, ladies! We are back with more details into Leena & Ken's wedding celebration. And you cannot imagine how excited we are to share all the beautiful and vibrant images captured by Dana Todd Photography during the outdoor wedding ceremony. So let's not wait any longer and jump right into it! The Flower House arrived bright and early to transform the gardens of the Wente Vineyards into a total romantic paradise. Luscious reds and warm golds, both worn by the couple and their parties, were accented by the vibrant bouquets that surrounded the scene. This fantastic decor created a vision no one could ignore. Without any question, this was the dream setting Leena & Ken always imagined. And talking about dreams come true, what about Leena's dreamy entrance walking down the aisle and slowly approaching to the Mandap! She looked dazzling on her bright pink lengha from SWATI Couture Indian Fashions. Her fantastic makeup and hairstyle was a true vision achieved by Phi Phi Yvonne, and we are impressed with the final look! However, we think that her best accessories were the smile on her face and the glow on her eyes when she laid eyes on her future husband. She looked so adorable, and we are sure that more than one of the guests dropped a tear of happiness when seeing this romantic scene! Ken followed the line of style set by his now-wife and embraced his new culture wearing an elegant Sherwani suit also from SWATI Couture Indian Fashions. He ended up looking handsome like a Raja always does! After tying the knot, these two lovebirds were ready to celebrate their marriage. But before we head down to the reception party, make sure to take a look at the gallery that we have prepared for today.
