  • Rishi + Radhika – Next / Same Day Edit

    Weddings, you say? Well, they are all about the bride of course!

    These days, not so much. Times are changing, grooms- to-be are becoming a much more heard and important voice in the wedding planning process, and why not- it is just as much their day to shine. In the case of Rishi and Radhika, it might have very well seemed as if it was all about the groom, and to add even more of a plot twist for our readers, Radhika was loving every minute of her groom’s spotlight. Who says brides don’t know how to share the glory of their moment?

    Rishi and Radhika’s union is especially dear to me, as I have known Rishi for almost 6 years. He has been a guest at numerous weddings that our team has worked over the years and we have covered such a large number of weddings within his own family that I seem to have lost track after the eighth

    This couple possesses a very balanced dynamic that helped them tremendously with the stress that often accompanies preparing for the big day. Vibrant and full of energy, Rishi was an enthusiastic perfectionist when it came to making sure that all of the details would seamlessly come together for the events. Radhika was always on hand, calm and collected, and readily available to assure Rishi that while events are rarely ever 100% of the way you expect, they are always entirely yours to make the best of. In that vein, they are only a disappointment if you allow them to be. Rishi is lucky to have such a wise lady by his side.

    With my utmost love and respect, I would like to wish this special couple only the best that married life has to offer, and I have a hunch that I will be seeing them very soon, again.

  • CK + Robin – Next Day Edit

    Last year, CK & Robin approached us to capture their wedding festivities in August of 2015. From our initial consultation to further meetings, one of the things that we noticed with both the groom and the bride was their calmness and honesty. And those two traits truly makes matters much easier not only for us but for the couple as well.

    Their wedding was full of elegance and character but the most important aspect was family. At all the events, there was a sense of compromise between every individual. It was as if the families had an understanding of respect and love. The highlight from their pre wedding events was how CK proposed to Robin which was followed by him sweeping her off her feet. That beautiful moment is featured in the Next Day Edit.

    But we feel the element that really stood out in their wedding was their regal and stunning outfits. Gone are the days when a bride was the one who dressed like a queen. Nowadays the tides are shifting towards grooms and CK made sure that he matched perfectly with his beautiful bride. Along with the matching outfits, they carried themselves in a sophisticated manner.

    As always in order to reflect the couple’s personality properly, we always turn towards the music as a source of inspiration. And the choice here blends perfectly with them or so we think 😉

  • Bhavi + Nina – Next/ Same Day Edit

    In affairs such as weddings, while it is much easier said than done, things are likely to go a great deal smoother if there is a general sense of calm about the place. (This can also greatly add to your value as a bridesmaid or groomsman if you manage to do this for your highly anxious bride and/or groom- rack up those brownie points and make it count that they chose you!)

    Such was the case with Bhavi and Nina’s wedding weekend, inclusive of pre-wedding events and finally two completely different ceremonies, all in the same day. It helps of course, that our bride and groom were completely trusting in the entire process and confident that they were surrounded by the best quality of family, friends and vendors to share in and contribute to their big day.

    The wedding was a combination of Sikh and Hindu traditions and with a lot of careful and thoughtful coordinating, each ceremony took place at its respective temple in one day. The functions were intimate, respectfully planned and equally solemn- a noteworthy tribute to who Bhavi and Nina are as individuals and the kind of balanced union upon which they have embarked.

    Not only did this couple know to expect the best from their day, but they knew how to travel in high style as well. A shiny white Maybach was their impressive method of travel for the day, and truth be told/ the first day of the rest of their lives, never looked better.

  • Roli + Amit – Next / Same Day Edit

    Roli and Amit’s wedding will be remembered long after the bridal trousseau is finally packed away and the last of the Thank You cards are mailed out. It was just THAT kind of wedding.

    Loads of fun from start to finish; a swank entrance in a ferrari by the groom, the catchy, groovin moves’ of a vibrant bridal party and the heartfelt emotion that swept the room as the bride made her way down the aisle- there were all kinds of ooh and ahh moments that left guests crying, laughing and begging for more.

    Weddings we often hear, are supposed to be about the bride and groom. It is, after all, a time for them to look their finest as they celebrate their nuptials in a style signature to them, surrounded by those they love the most. Roly and Amit are clearly two individuals who have their friends and family rooting for them,  just as much as they are rooting for each other. This was especially evident in how emotionally invested their relatives and friends appeared at each event. On top of that, their guests arrived dressed to the nines and ready to party- everyone was going to part of the merrymaking.

    Moments of endearing poignance, mischievous fun and joyful celebration were the perfect undertones to carefully planned, and stunningly arranged backdrops and decor.

    At the heart of a roaring good time, it was noticeable that a peaceful awe and sense of ceremony would surface ever so often. As history would have it, a good balance is always key to a healthy, successful marriage. What a way to start one! Congrats to Roli and Amit!

  • Nakita + Amir – Wedding Film

    Elegance and beauty are some of the words that describes Nakita + Amir’s Wedding in Miami. Although the wedding was spread over couple of days, there was really no shortage of events. Things kicked off with Pooja and Sangeet events at bride’s backyard followed by spectacular outdoor wedding the next day. The bride’s and groom’s attire were elegant and regal which complimented really well with the outfits on both sides of the family.

    That same evening, a mini reception was held, featuring some mouth watering dessert that lead to the main reception the following day. Each event had it’s own feel and persona. It wasn’t just Nakita and Amir who spent their time every detail but also a big hand goes to both set of parents for making sure, nothing was left out.

    Nakita + Amir come from very humble families with that are tied together for more than a generation. Ultimately, what made them stood out as a couple was their strength of confidence and attention to detail, as this wedding film illustrates.

    And the chemistry between them is so silent that it screams nothing but love.

  • Sonia + Manny -Multi Million $ Wedding Extravaganza -Next / Same Day Edit

    Sonia and Manny’s wedding extravaganza will leave you starry-eyed and breathless. If you are planning your own wedding it is chock full of inspiration, so much so, it is featured in the current issue of WedLuxe magazine which is in stores now. This is the second time we have had our work highlighted in Wedluxe, and when you take a look at this wedding, rest assured, your highly coveted vision boards will come to life right before your eyes.

    The wedding was sparklingly luxe and bespoke in theme, and our bride Sonia went above and beyond in making sure everything was custom and precisely as she pictured. There are a number of ways to make a statement at one’s wedding, and Sonia chose all of the right ones. Her wedding stationery was regally bold and colorful, hand-selected and carefully planned. Her ceremony invitations were printed by the same store in India that created Abhishek and Ashwariya’s. The outstanding Paleterra did her reception invitations, and their effect was both iconic and luxurious in design.

    The stunning red bridal lengha that she wore was fabricated by the famous Sabya Sachi, replete with all of the fine handiwork and crystals that brides dream about. Sonia’s gown for the reception was designed by Ines Di Santo, with a sweeping skirt and a jeweled neckline that dazzled every which way she turned.

    Sonia entrusted Dream Party Décor with the responsibility of making her dream wedding a reality, and together, they scored a perfect 10 in achieving that. From the Mehendi to Reception, there was not a detail missed. A live camel was even present at the Sangeet! For the Milni ceremony at the Gurdawar, a red carpet entrance fit for a king heralded Manny. (Brides, this is an impressively thoughtful touch, although this day is very much about you- the grooms deserve a bit of the fanfare too).

    Floral design is a key piece in creating an extravagant look at any event. Going to extremes this year, floral backdrops are making waves in events around the world – and in a good way! Sonia did not miss the memo. She left it to Dream Party Décor to implement a floral design into her backdrop for a dramatically lush and romantic effect. To top it all off, when the couple was announced to their audience, the stage revolved to reveal them- poised and statuesque- in front of their gorgeous backdrop. WHAT an entrance!

    Sonia and Manny had what many would call a dream wedding, but what makes it truly magical, is the love, support and humility that their respective families have for the couple and toward each other. Both Sonia and Manny declared that it could not have been the fairytale it was, without their families by their sides, and so, how deserving they all were, to share in their children’s dream come true.

  • Shinda + Amrita – Next/Same Day Edit

    Leonardo da Vinci once said that, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” And such sophistication, with yet a distinct simplicity, can be found in Shinda & Amrita. They are a gem of a couple whose sense of style goes beyond anything you may have ever seen at a wedding. Every single element from their outfits to jewelry to decor had so much detail in it, that the word itself falls too short.

    Both Shinda + Amrita are complete KOOLKATS. Not only do they have a knack for coordinating outfits for one another but they also carry their outfits and themselves in a fittingly complimentary manner. Their unfeigned positivity regardless of the challenge is a memorably commendable trait that they possess. A fine example of that is the e-mail we received from them a few days before the wedding. In it, the couple disclosed to us that the temple at which they were originally planning to be married was still under construction so they had to pull something together quickly to find a replacement. The email stated, “So luckily we found the perfect Gurudwara for us. It has been pure madness haha but hopefully all goes smoothly now “. That e-mail truly defined their calmness and patience throughout the process and it’s an indispensable, particularly difficult, attitude to have when planning your own wedding.

    The gorgeous wedding attire and Chinoesseri theme featured at their reception was jaw- droppingly arresting. Everyone including their partners and guests raved about the stunning outfits,make-up, cake and design concepts. The seamlessness of their planning was simply due to their confident personalities. They knew what they wanted and left everything else to the professionals and the results were spellbinding.

  • Simran + Garry – Next Day Edit

    At times, and somewhat unfairly to the bride and groom, much attention is drawn to the business and complexity of South Asian weddings, and not a whole lot is left to spare on the bride and groom themselves. This next wedding however, was outstanding in its ability to evoke a warm understanding of the bride and groom, for even its tiniest details spoke volumes about who they were as a couple.

    Classy, fun and full of heart- from attire and decor to the enormity of their wedding party- it was evident that Simran and Gary cared just as much about those dearest to them feeling included and enjoying themselves as much as they did.

    A sense of family was very much felt and celebrated by all present, and the jesting and merriment did not cease for a moment. Simran and Gary were married with the greatest blessing, the overwhelming warmth and support of two very loving families.

  • Ritu + Sumit – Next Day Edit

    Ritu and Sumit are the kind of couple one can’t help but fall in love with- simply by observing how profoundly captivated they are by each other. While their wedding was vibrant, full of colors and traditional sounds, good company and delicious tastes- it was an occasion worth celebrating because of the feel-good, harmonizing energy between the couple.

    We have worked with the family on nearly a dozen weddings. Our last with them was 2 years ago, so it was a pleasure to see yet another couple in the family achieve this milestone together.

    The pre-wedding festivities were warm, light-hearted and fun; Ritu and Summit truly seemed to share in each other’s shining-eyed excitement. Their creative baraat was an exceptional way to up the ante for the bride’s entrance and nervous as she might have been as she walked through those doors- her eyes never left Summit’s. Their remarkable chemistry undoubtedly provided a most satisfying ambience for the ceremony.

    Their wedding was full of character, and the atmosphere one of love. Together, Ritu and Summit were celebrated not only for the spectacular time they provided their guests, but for the privilege all present were bestowed in seeing love at its best- youthful, fresh and passionate.

  • Farah + Nadeem – Next Day Edit

    Farah and Nadeem were no strangers to us here at Film Style Weddings, as we had worked a few times before with the family, and even had the pleasure of capturing her sister’s wedding. As many times as it has happened to us, it never seems to get old- working with a families such as theirs, relationships are gradually developed that far surpass the professional kind. These families, have a tremendous culture of tradition, support and love and the union between the two, thanks to Farah and Nadeem was heartwarming to behold for all present.

    Farah was a delightful fusion between the modern bride, inspired by pinterest and all things crafty, yet there was a strong sense of respect for older traditions and practices that could be seen in many of the finer details as well. She knew exactly what she envisioned, and was extremely efficient in organizing her ideas and ensuring that her partners executed them. Her success in doing so, had a lot to do with being confident at the drawing board, but furthermore, having that confidence in her partners as well. To all brides who are in the planning stage- trusting your partners is key! With Farah as evidence, do your research beforehand and you shall be quite happy with the end result.

    Nadeem was the perfect complement to her bubbly attitude. More of a technical
    sort, he allowed Farah to work with more of the details and prioritized the fulfillment of her wishes. He was a stylish, friendly and very personable groom. Far from uninvolved, his laid- back attitude was an invaluable asset on the day of the ceremony as it rained much more than expected. While their photo shoot was impacted, his good humor allowed all to pull through with a smile and that is exactly the kind of mindset one needs on one of the most important days of their life. Nothing was going to get in the way. If anything did…it was the constant reminder that this was a couple who were going to be happy, organized and always creative for a very VERY long time. Enjoy!

  • Ali + Komal – Next/Same Day Edit

    If there were ever an award for an outstanding display and range of colours in a wedding- Ali and Komal’s would be a top contender. Their use of mouthwateringly bright, invigorating colors is the quintessence of every decorator’s dream. Their switch to sheer, shimmering fabrics, glowing candlelight and cool, elegant whites for their reception decor was the perfect finish to their week of vibrant events.

    The couple had a very traditional muslim ceremony and stylish modern reception. A visible chemistry shared between the bride and groom was noted in each event, for despite the conservative tone of certain rituals- the energy in the air was full of excitement and a new, sacred kind of love. Komal wowed their guests in her spectacular bridal attire and there was hardly a moment that Ali was not smiling. Both were looks that wedding fashion police would applaud.

    Ali and Komal are both very family- oriented and it was clear that each of them had long desired a large, stylish wedding. It was indeed an occasion with plenty of family, good cheer and fun married with uniquely feel-good aspects like group performances, adorable messages for the couple, a breathtaking fireworks show and floating Japanese lanterns. It was truly a whirlwind of colors and deep emotions which even for us, too soon, came to an end. Congrats to the couple!

  • Gagan + Harjeet – Same Day Edit

    For Gagan and Harjeet – it was all in the details. Their events were a constant visual feast for both guests and the camera alike. From the jewelry and outfits to the wedding stationery and favors, deep jewel tones pervaded many of the feature accents in this wedding and helped to create a most majestic feel.

    There was a climactic build-up in color scheme and décor over the course of events, with the ceremony focusing on light pastels, a demure and pretty mixture of creams, pinks, oranges and peaches. This was offset by a unique dupatta the bride donned, which was a blend of orange, pink and red. Upon seeing the exquisite garment, one immediately conjures to mind a spring blossom. For brides looking to infuse a bit of their own creativity into traditional bridal wear- it was a beautiful touch.

    In contrast, the palette used at the reception incorporated deeper hues, lighted trees which made for an enchanted feel, and royal details such as water fountains surrounded by stallions and eye-catching decorative peacocks.

    But details alone do not complete a wedding, and there were plenty of all the other goodies that make up this list; lots of music, dancing, delicious food and playful mischief. As plainly as it is seen in this clip, Gagan and Harjeet were married in regal style, surrounded by the love of their family and friends.
