Traditional Mangalorean Wedding With The Bride In A Royal Blue Kanjeevaram!

We love a wedding full of happiness and warmth without being over the top, and this one was just that. Himani and Ateet's wedding was a celebration full of love, and it was a traditional Mangalorean wedding, just how the couple wanted it to be. The bride wore a pretty royal blue and orange Kanjeevaram and they had a contemporary Sangeet and Reception where the bride rocked a lehenga. Special shoutout to LightBucket Productions★ 4.9 who captured the wedding beautifully!

Meet Himani and Ateet

Our families found a match. They were excited while we were scared.
It all started with a very formal message on WhatsApp saying “you can ping me when you’re free” . At first we thought it would be impossible for us to communicate due to the time difference, as he lived in the United states and I was in India. Our chats turned into hours of calls and that's when we knew we wanted to be together but you know, every individual would like to meet the person he or she's gonna be with. So we took our time, he flew to India to see me. The first meet just felt right and we did meet few times after that. Whoever says long distance relationship doesn't last has never really been in one!

From the Bride:

Being a Mangalorean, I always wanted a very traditional wedding where all of our family and friends come together fun goes on for days. I am very grateful to all those people who made our wedding and all the functions so special.

Makeup Artist

The main thing about her is she's easy to work with. She understands your requirements and gets it done in a very beautiful way. I looked the prettiest on my big day.
