Shrina’s Pithi and Grah Shanti in Fremont

The day before her wedding Shrina did the Pooja known as Ganesh Pooja at her home to remove any obstacles from the wedding events. She offered Ganesh milk, sweets, and blessings to Lord Ganesh in exchange for his blessings. The part of the event known as Pithi is where her mother, aunts, and friends rub tumeric based paste on her feet, knees, arms, shoulder, and face to make her skin radiant and beautiful for her wedding day. All these traditions are part of the traditional Hindu wedding in the state of Gujarat where both the bride and groom’s families come from.

The colors were rich and vivid and the perfect lighting in their backyard made us very happy because everything turned out so beautifully! We hope you enjoy of our favorite photographs of this Pithi ceremony and Ganesh Pooja below!
