Ahalya and Goutam had a very cool wedding at the Grand Bay Hotel in Redwood City! Ahalya is a Tamil from Sri Lanka and so it was like an Indian wedding with a twist!
There were some unique ceremonies like the groom in the bathtub in the morning and we love learning about new customs so this was really fun for us!
The wedding day went really smoothly! We had a great getting ready morning getting read session, followed by a very nice morning photo shoot with the couple and the bridal party, followed by a well organized ceremony by their Hindu priest. During the middle of the day the couple got ready for their reception and the party went into the night!
Their entire family are great dancers so the evening portion was amazing! They didn’t have a typical Sangeet night so all that type of stuff happened at the reception.
We are so thrilled that we got to be with them every step of the way! At their engagement shoot in SF, Goutam surprised Ahalya and proposed to her! Then the day before their Hindu wedding they had a civil ceremony/welcome dinner that we captured, and then this day!
If you are having a Tamil wedding in the Bay Area, give us a call because we would love to capture it for you!
