Seemanti and Peter’s wedding features an Indian bride and an Irish American groom from New York in a Moroccan themed destination wedding in the shopping capital of the Middle East – Dubai.
From the bride: “The most exciting part for me was to plan a dream vacation for all the family and friends that were going to visit Dubai for the first time and experience a full Indian wedding. I wanted to make their stay perfect. The other thing I was looking forward to was for my future husband and my extended families to meet as they had never met each other before. The most stressful part of it all was the fact that I had to plan a wedding in Dubai, from New York. It took a lot of coordination and weekend and late night work which was tiring.”
The couple hosted a truly incomparable wedding celebration for guests arriving from every corner of the globe. The events kicked off with a sexy Sangeet truly fitting a destination celebration.
Farnaz K Studio elegantly captured the blue and purple lit lounge Sangeet, complete with a nightclub vibe. Despite the gorgeous, but dramatic lighting, Farnaz’s pictures captured the venue and details flawlessly.
The day following the couple’s extravagant Dubai Sangeet, the bride had a sunny outdoor Mehndi ceremony at Jumeriah Beach in the bride’s parents’ backyard. The pictures by Farnaz K Studio transport you to this beautiful garden party!
So often we see big Mehendi parties in banquets halls with men, women and children. I love the old-school feel of this event. Just the bride surrounded by her sisters, aunts and other female relatives. Love, love, love the warmth of it!
On February 25th at Jumeriah Beach Hotel, Seemanti and Peter were married on the beach in a brilliant Moroccan inspired wedding.
There’s so much that can be said about the stunning images, the venue, and the décor. Award winning New York photographer, Farnaz, hit the ball out of the park on this one as she photographed the glamorous Hindu wedding on the white sand beach. While traditionally Moroccan styling makes use of darker colors, the décor for this wedding was toned down and mixed with pastel colors to fit in with the breezy surroundings.
We adore the draping of the mandap (perfect for a beach wedding), the bride’s doli entrance and the couple’s gorgeous attire. A stunning wedding this couple will never forget!
