Anita and Richard chose to first celebrate in an authentic Hindu style with a beautiful, symbolism infused ceremony the first day. What a joy to watch and partake! Anita looked like an Indian Goddess while Richard, even though Italian, was extremely handsome in his Indian attire when he made his grand entrance on Lightening, a gorgeous white horse. What joyous moments, the rythms of the drums were intoxicating, the dancing going around-extremely inviting. All in all, exhilarating! After being greeted by Anita’s mom, Richard proceeded for the Mandap where he waited for his stunning bride for their Hindu ceremony.
Next day they exchanged their vows in a downtown Toronto church and then we were all headed for some fun photos and of course, the reception later on.

The photos below coupled with the photo booth ones I already posted should easily give an idea of the amount of fun that went on reception night.
Anita and Richard just returned from a great honeymoon in Africa and I hope these images will help them relive some of their greatest moments marking a new, exciting journey together. Congratulations! Manuela

I have witnessed such an explosion of colours that went hand in hand with the high energy coming from joy and a lot of love. Everything was about textures, flavors, lush decors and style. For the reception I had the great pleasure to taste, one more time, the amazing food catered by my favorite Indian restaurant, The Host.

At times I felt so charged with the vibration around me that I felt like joining the crowd for its frantic dancing!

Purvi and Pritesh, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your superb celebrations and I wish you all the very best in your new life together!
