Indian wedding in Las Vegas, NV: day 2, reception

Day 2 of this Indian wedding was the reception day but first we managed to squeeze in a photoshoot with the couple at the Grand Terrace in Bellagio. Our bride showed up with a completely different look, wearing another gorgeous Indian dress (“Lehenda”), a totally different jewelry and makeup. And so did the groom. No turban or national clothing this time, just a fitted suit. What a transformation!

After the shoot we arrived at the reception venue, Keep Memory Alive Event Center. And let me tell you, the decor was exquisite! The wedding planner together with his team did such an amazing job and wowed all the guests.

Indian wedding in Las Vegas, NV: day 1

I wasn’t sure what to expect at an Indian wedding but it has been nothing but a blast. Indian weddings last over the course of several days and are all about vibrant colors, dancing, giving blessings and traditional rituals. From the guests dancing around the groom to the beat of a dhol (an Indian drum) when the groom arrives to the ceremony venue, to a spiritual ceremony under a Mandap (a special canopy), to multiple parties, to being able to sneak away for a couples photoshoot at Red Rock Canyon National park, me and my assistant had sooo much fun!

What an incredible celebration of two beautiful souls finding each other, and how stunning are these bride and groom!
