A Sacred Ceremony Beneath the Open Sky


The Sikh ceremony was deeply spiritual and beautifully executed. Guests gathered outdoors for the Anand Karaj, a peaceful and meaningful union full of color, prayer, and community.


Just minutes after the couple finished their vows, a heavy rain began to fall—widely seen as a blessing in Indian tradition. Everyone smiled, laughed, and embraced the moment.


A Destination Wedding Full of Intentional Details


The couple chose this Virginia farm for its serene beauty and peaceful atmosphere. Guests traveled in from near and far, and the energy was filled with love and gratitude. The decor featured florals in rich jewel tones, elegant signage, and touches of gold for a classic Indian wedding vibe.


Wedding M.D. in Action


As a planner, managing a destination wedding with cultural traditions takes strategy, care, and deep understanding. From coordinating the timing of rituals to managing weather surprises, I was there every step of the way.
