From the Archives: Gujarati Wedding

A couple years ago, I was fortunate to be invited to a wedding in India by my best friend’s family. Needless to say, I had a blast. Here are some images from a story I compiled on the wedding. Enjoy.

Traditionally, Indian weddings are elaborate celebrations filled with rituals and customs dating back thousands of years. Weddings are usually between arranged couples, or those who have been partnered together by the bride and groom’s families for financial gain and family partnership. The marriage between Suketu Soni and Divya Agarwal was a more modern love marriage. The ceremonies occurred between Jan. 3, 2008 and Jan. 5, 2008 in the state of Gujarat, in northwest India.
