Our CA & NY Wedding and Receptions, Vegas Wedding and Tahiti Honeymoon!
Would you believe the wedding was over 6 months ago and i'm just posting pictures now! well here i go ...
Our parents are from India so we had a huge shindig that lasted way too many days. We're both Sikh and were married in a Sikh Gurdwara (temple).
The wedding and first reception were in Cali where i'm from and the second reception was in NY at the Huntington Townhouse. Then we went to French Polynesia for 11 days, and then off to Vegas for a few days to get married in a chapel for the helluvit 
ok here's the pics-

Re: Our CA & NY Wedding and Receptions, Vegas Wedding and Tahiti Honeymoon!
The thursday before the wedding was the sangeet/mehndi at our house. It’s when all the women basically come over (and some men) and there’s lots of singing of traditional old school songs and some dancing, as well as henna/mehndi being done on the women’s hands.
we decorated the house amazingly. lights all over the front of the house, long tulle fabric hanging from the ceiling. it was great.
these aren't professional pics.
i couldn't eat with the henna on my hands so my baby fed me

Friday was the sangeet from the guys' side. They had almost 100 people fly out from the East Coast. they were all at the same hotel and pretty much took over the hall at the hotel.

Re: Our CA & NY Wedding and Receptions, Vegas Wedding and Tahiti Honeymoon!
beautiful! What vibrant colors Can you explain the significance of the henna on your hands?
When friend (who is Sikh) explained it to me a while ago but I can't remember!

hehe it was the same event .. that was the sangeet as well 
oh and the henna - hehe im sorry to say that i don't really know what it signifies. it's just an old tradition that all women participate in at weddings. you're supposed to have your husbands name written somewhere within the henna and he has to find it .. that was fun
also they say the darker your henna is, the more your mother in law will love you

Your dad looks so proud of you in that pic!
that's so sweet of you to say that! i went back and looked at it and just noticed so much more emotion on my dad's face. almost made me cry again

You look like a model in this picture below. I must compliment you on your dress and particularly the shawl/head covering. The embroidery on it is gorgeous!!!
