Bride Details
Kayla was the embodiment of true elegance as she arrived to the ceremony with a vibrant red color palette paired with gold intricate designs delicately placed on her saris and, at hand, pink florals chosen by RJ Glam Rentals to welcome a sense of softness. Her makeup and hair was done by Tiffany from Bronze and Glow, that only further enhanced her look with beautiful, soft curls framing her face and a bold red lip that perfectly complimented the color scheme.
Love
During the process of planning the wedding, Kayla and Nikesh envisioned a celebration that beautifully blended traditional and elegant elements – one that honored their deep devotion for one another while including those close to them in the festivities. This could be a direct reflection of who they are: a couple grounded by their loved ones and deeply love those around them.
The celebration of their heritage was beautifully interwoven throughout the wedding and delicately blended the vibrancy of Indian traditions with a modern touch. The choice to honor this part of their upbringing not only highlighted their shared backgrounds, but also brought the two families together in a touching way.
The couple continued this new chapter of their life with a honeymoon to the warm beaches of Hawaii, where they were able to create meaningful memories and experience life as newlyweds.
