Real Wedding Day Inspiration - Asmi and Ameer Pt. 2

Hello again, dear readers! I can't believe it's Wednesday already. This week is moving along quite quickly. As promised we are back with the beautifully colorful mehendi ceremony for Asmi and Ameer. You can view their incredible wedding here. These pictures were captured by the talented team at AGAiMAGES. The mehendi celebration seems a bit less formal than the wedding but traditional with the blessing and exchange of gifts.

Real Wedding Day Inspiration - Puja and Sheenal

Good morning, Dear Readers. I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Today we are kicking off a new feature here at Dawn Easter Events: Real Wedding Day Inspiration. Every Monday we will showcase a beautiful wedding story that will hopefully serve as inspiration as you plan your own wedding day celebration. There will be plenty of amazing details, breath-taking photography and gorgeous couples in love. Each couple featured should spark your creativity for your own big day. Maybe it'll be a flower that shapes your cake, shoes to inspire your linens or a tie to give you a flash of an idea for your invitations. It's all about taking something small and developing your own signature take on it. Your Love. Your Style. Your Story.

Our first couple, Puja and Sheenal, had an incredibly stunning wedding at the Atlanta Historic Center. Eli and Jenily Silva was the amazing photography team capturing their day.
