Happy New Year !

Happy New Year everyone!!! We are so excited and happy to welcome the New Year as we have had time to reflect on the old. We have some exciting things to bring to our clients in 2007 from the launch of our new yet temporary website until the final website design has been complete, from the helpful hints and tips from Regeti’s that will be posted frequently to help our brides in planning out their timelines to include all the shots she could have hoped for. In 2007 we are going to help educate our clients on how important an experienced DOC coordinator can truly be, along with a well thought out timeline in consideration of the type of photographic coverage our girls are seeking from us. In 2007 there will be change as we are always looking to perfect and better our services. As we shoot our first 07 wedding this Friday, then to venture out to NYC the following weekend for the RP Boudoir Marathon at “The Michaelangelo” hotel in Times Square, returning to then head out the following weekend to “Cinncinatian” hotel in Ohio for another RP Boudoir Marathon, keep posted as we bring in January 2007 the RP way!

So enough rambling on and on as we know you only want to see images! We had a wonderful New Year hanging with “The Wiebners!” such an awesome way to ring in the New Year, Joel and Rita are truly one of a kind and we could not have been more happier and blessed to have become friends with them. We have photos and video coverage to blog, of our time with “The Wiebners” and are diligently working to get it up on the blog (as shown below shot with some of our newly purchased gear), however as truly exhausted as we are we are going to save the post for tomorrows blog post!

We wish everyone and theirs “All the best in the New Year!”

    Tania,

    Thank you !

    Heather, Thanks to you too ! Did Geoff see the header image ?

    We are currently working on a new website should be up within next few days. This is only a temporary website we are working on … the full featured website is going to take some more time. Our designer is working on it for past several months.

    Regards,
    Srinu RegetiReplyCancel

    Srinu-

    Geoff saw the header image last night and loved it. though he commented that it should have been the “fence” picture…which I now see today! I need to get cracking on printing pictures, as there are so many to be hung around the house!ReplyCancel

    Jill, thanks and we are still working on it. Will send you an email about next week and also the ad in the journal.

    Heather, looks like I read Geoff’s mind 🙂

Here’s the quiet truth no one tells guests before an Indian or Indian-American wedding:

You’re not just watching.
You’re participating.
Not with choreography or rituals — but with presence.

Indian weddings move differently.
They breathe differently.
They carry meaning in moments that don’t announce themselves.

When guests arrive expecting efficiency, cues, or constant explanation, tension builds — and the couple feels it.

What actually matters?
Respect.
Patience.
Openness.
That’s it.

This post isn’t about rules or etiquette.
It’s about showing up with curiosity instead of expectations — and why that one shift changes everything for the couple at the center of it all.

👉 Full blog is live (link in BIO)
👉 Especially worth sharing with non-Indian guests
👉 Brides: this is a great post to send before the wedding day

There’s what you see on wedding day.
And then there’s everything that makes us the photographers we are.

This channel is where we share the in-between —
the building, the learning, the late nights,
the marriage that has carried us through nearly two decades of photographing other people’s love stories.

We’re still very much in weddings.
Still shooting.
Still telling stories.
Still showing up for our couples.
But here, you’ll also see how we live, work, problem-solve, and grow together behind the camera —
because who we are off a wedding day shapes how we show up on one.

If you’re planning a wedding,
work in the wedding industry,
or simply love honest conversations about partnership, creativity, and building a life together —
you’ll fit right in.

This is the double date you won’t regret.

Thanksgiving Eve feels extra tender this year.

Grateful for the families we were born into — and the families we’ve built through brides, grooms, parents, friends, vendors, and our SAWL community.

You’ve welcomed us like your own, and we carry that love every day.

A little note from our hearts is live on the blog, if you are into the sappy stuff!

Yesterday I shared Birju’s baraat as a reel — the color, the music, the movement.
But today, I’m sharing the meaning behind it.

There’s so much more to that moment than drums and dancing… and I felt called to write about it — about family, lineage, belonging, and what Indian-American communities represent in this country far beyond what meets the eye.

If you’ve ever looked at a baraat and wondered what you’re really witnessing — or if you believe America is at its best when we understand each other a little more — this one is worth reading.

📝 Read the full blog linked in the COMMENTS below. 👇👇👇

It’s a story of culture, love, legacy… and why celebrations like this matter far more than most people realize.

Let me know your thoughts after reading — I’d love to hear how it lands for you.

Regeti Feature Friday ✨

Some Vidai`s feel ceremonial…
and then there are Vidaiis like this.

Palak and her grandfather — a moment that says everything without a single word.
You could feel the attachment, the history, the love that only a grandparent carries.

Vidai isn’t just a goodbye.
It’s generations holding on… and letting go… all at once.

If you want storytellers who notice the moments that matter most, explore more at theregetis.com.

And join us at SAWL.life for deeper conversations around the South Asian wedding experience.

What makes a South Asian fusion wedding fusion?
Hint: It’s not just about skin tone or who’s marrying outside the culture.

Fusion happens when:
✨ Two Indian families speak different languages
✨ Two regional traditions meet under one mandap
✨ Two religions blend with respect
✨ Two American upbringings reinterpret cultural roots
✨ Two worlds — any worlds — choose love over labels

This is why we chose this niche.
Because fusion isn’t a buzzword.
It’s the lived experience of so many Indian-American couples navigating identity, culture, family, and love — all at once.

Today’s blog touches the real heart of fusion weddings, including:

✨ How wardrobe, rituals & food carry generational meaning
✨ Why family dynamics are the true fusion challenge
✨ What makes these weddings emotionally rich and unforgettable
If you’re planning a fusion or Indian-American wedding — or simply love seeing two worlds become one — this one is for you.
