Isn’t it great when a friend gets married? Last week our good friend Ambrish took the plunge and marriend Nirali at the recently opened Rasoi III in Monmouth Junction, New Jersey. We have been her a few times in the past, it looks like we will be here a lot next year.
Nirali started her morning getting hair and make up done with her friends and family. It really doesn’t hit you until you start putting on your wedding attire that the big day is actually here, and in just a few hours you will be married! The Baraat Ceremony started bright and early, and even at 9:00am, Indian people are ready to party. Their wedding was held inside the main hall. Enjoy these Indian wedding photos.

Your family, they mean the world to you. You spend everyday of your life with your family, but most of us never even think about getting a family photo unless we are at a Sweet 16 or somebody’s wedding where we huddle together and get a snapshot.
It is interesting how South Asian families generally don’t make it a point to take a family photo as other cultures do. Any holiday you will find the malls filled with American families lining up to take a family photo to send out to their friends and family. We just don’t do that, and that needs to change.
This blog post is just a bunch of recent photos taken for Friends/Family/Clients. The summer gives us some great weather, and amazing opportunities to get people together for a nice photo. Take advantage of it while you can, the summer won’t last and before you know it, the kids will be off to school/college, parents will be retiring abroad, and all you will have is that dark fuzzy photo from some party years ago. Sorry for the emotional post, losing a family member is never easy, and sometimes I wish I had stepped back and taken some special shots of with family while they were still around.
Call your photographer, or grab a friend that has some photography skills and capture some beautiful shots of those you admire most.

After a very sunny and windy wedding ceremony, Sheena and Ankush got to unwind a bit and celebrate their beginning of their new lives! After a few touching speeches and a very emotional toast, the couple had their first dance. Everyone could see their happiness, Sheena was just glowing!
Dj Raj and his team lit up the ballroom with amazing bright ambient up lighting that swapped colors throughout the evening. Their sound system was superb, and it literally tore the roof down, pieces of the ceiling began chipping away as the bass hit!
Friends and family hit the dance floor and the bartenders kept the drinks flowing. The folks at the Jersey City Hyatt serviced the party well. Good food, good music, great couple!

After a gorgeous and emotional ceremony we finally got down to some serious business partying! The team at the Princeton Hyatt converted the ceremony room into a reception ball room complete with a huge dance floor. The boys at Raaz Entertainment set up their sound and lighting for the evening. Dipsi and Jay brought in an amazing bar made completely out of ice! This this was amazing! The drinks stayed cool and the awesome glow from all of the LEDs made the bar just a pleasure to look at. Evenings of Elegance planned an amazing event, and nailed every last detail to customize this once in a lifetime event.
The food and desserts were fantastic. Palace of Asia kept the dishes coming in one after another! For wedding vendors like us, this is a nightmare! If we keep eating all this phenomenal food we will need to work extra hard to stay in shape! Dipali and Jay danced the night away with friends and family, these guys really know how to get down! Here are some of the photos from the evening:
