The Attire
What made Erica and Ben’s wedding truly special was the incorporation of traditional Hindu elements. Erica’s attire was a sight to behold – a breathtaking lehenga in shades of beige and red, complemented by elaborate earrings, a statement haar necklace, and an assortment of bangles and bracelets that added a touch of traditional splendor. Her hands were adorned with intricate mehendi bearing their names. Ben, in a simple yet elegant sherwani, stood by her side, his eyes reflecting his love and admiration for his bride.
The Ceremony
One of the highlights of the ceremony was the Jaimala, a sacred Hindu tradition where the couple exchanged garlands, symbolizing their acceptance of each other and their promises to stand together in love and harmony. The sight of Erica and Ben, their eyes sparkling with love, as they exchanged these floral necklaces, was a moment that tugged at the heartstrings of everyone present.
The Venues
Their ceremony was held at The White Chapel at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Bathed in light, the chapel’s interior space provided a stunning setting for their ceremony. The reception was at the event space at The Sycamore Winery. The patio made for a great place to enjoy the company of the dearest loved ones on the perfect summer evening.
The Details
The couple’s choice for the wedding cake was as elegant and tasteful as the rest of their celebration. A simple two-tiered cake adorned the dessert table, surrounded by delectable cupcakes. The beige and red theme echoed in the confectionary delights and florals, adding a touch of color and sweetness to the evening.
The Celebration
Complete DJ Cameron took charge of the evening, spinning tunes that resonated with the beats of love and joy. The dance floor came alive as guests, young and old, swayed to the music, celebrating the union of two beautiful souls. As the sun dipped below the horizon, Erica and Ben stole away for some intimate photos with Complete photographer Casey. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, their love shone brightly.
