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:

Sunday morning the sun came up and Dipali was already getting ready for her big day. We started bright and early at 6:00am at the Princeton Hyatt, and joined Dipali as she got her hair and make-up prepared by the team at Amorous Designs . They had 4 talented Hair and MU Artists brought in to keep things moving fast. You may remember this venue from Niket and Nirali’s Indian Wedding in April. This venue is great for larger parties, if you are looking to have an Indian wedding in NJ, talk to Anthony Valente, he will make sure your event is on point. Make sure to call Dharmi at Evenings of Elegance for the planning!

As Dipali got prepared for the ceremony, Jay was bringing the noise outside during his Baraat. His groomsmen, with vodka fries still brewing from in their system’s from the night prior, danced and shouted so everyone knew the groom was making his way to the wedding! The couple exchanged garlands after Dipali’s Mother greeted Jay and we moved inside to the grand ballroom to get ready for the wedding. Jay did not stand a chance against Dipali’s family, his shoes were gone instantly! The groomsmen were caught off guard! The wedding ceremony itself was very insightful; the Maharaj translated the ceremony in great detail. For decor, Evenings of Elegance brought in Abhishek USA to set up the ceremony area. It really was a beautiful ceremony, check out the photographs from this Indian wedding.

So last year we were referred by Anoli at Shaadi Story to event planner Dharmi Shah of Evenings of Elegance to provide photography service on Memorial Day weekend wedding. Now, Memorial Day is a huge, HUGE wedding weekend for not just the Indian community, but in general.

We had 3 pending contracts for the date, but after meeting with the planner and getting details on the event, we were hoping they would sign immediately! The bride to be is the planner’s sister, so I knew this event would be amazing, well coordinated and full of meticulous detail. Dipali and Jay booked us to capture their awesome Indian wedding.

The mehndi night started the celebration on Friday, May 28th over at the Ramada in North Brunswick. Abhishek USA (no relation!) did the decor and created a nice, lounge type of environment with long beds and comfortable pillows on the floor. For music and lighting, Evenings of Elegance brought in Raaz Entertainment to keep the party moving. For Video, Anoli and her team at TheShaadiStory.com was brought in to cover the event. They also provided video service for Payal and Kunal’s Indian Wedding back in July. Food was catered by Ramada Inn’s Indian Catering Services, and we may have had more than 1 plate. Mehndi was applied to the bride by Malti Sompura and her team while the guests played a game of antakshari which lead to a full blown dandia raas! These families know how to party!
