Breakfast with Santa anyone?

So we were asked by the PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) to photograph their school fundraiser “Breakfast with Santa”, as most of you know this is not really a Regeti gig but since our children go to the school we thought why not give back! So here are a few of our fav shots. I just nearly died laughing at this photograph of the one little boy as it reminds you of a commercial or something. Then the one of the young girl who just appeared to be forced to have her photo taken. It brings back some serious memories!

Special thanks to Ben and Jess for their hardwork and help. We couldn’t have done without you!

There’s something special about engagement celebrations that are kept intimate — they breathe differently.

Bhavya & Jayant’s South Asian Indian engagement celebration at Stone Tower Winery in Leesburg, Virginia was filled with easy laughter, meaningful conversations, and the kind of togetherness that reminds you what these moments are really about.

Stone Tower is such a beautiful fit for smaller, lighthearted gatherings — open spaces, vineyard views, and a natural elegance that doesn’t need overproduction to shine. It’s a place where families can relax, reconnect, and truly enjoy being together.

It was also a pleasure working closely with Bhavya’s mom during the booking process. Her confidence and decisiveness — right from the referral — spoke volumes.

In so many Indian and Indian-American families, parents thoughtfully vet vendors while couples juggle school, residencies, fellowships, and demanding careers. When trust is there, everything flows exactly as it should.

Authenticity always wins.

The laughter, the smiles, the memories — and the promise of what’s still to come. 🤍

Coming off a wedding weekend always leaves me thoughtful 🤍

Somewhere between unloading camera bags, folding laundry, and realizing Christmas is next week, I found myself replaying a quiet thought I know I’m not alone in…

We shouldn’t have to explain neglect to our kids or visiting family in a place meant to teach reverence.

I finally sat down and talked about it — honestly, gently, and without judgment — in a new episode of SAWL - Spilling the Chai with Amy ☕️

If you’ve ever left a place of worship feeling spiritually full but physically unsettled… this conversation might be for you.

Planning an Indian or South Asian wedding is supposed to feel joyful.
But for so many brides… it quietly feels heavy.
Heavy with expectations.
Heavy with pressure.
Heavy with guilt for wanting something different — or something simpler.
Heavy with the feeling of being watched instead of supported.
And no one really talks about that part.

This week on South Asian Wedded Life, I shared a conversation that many brides are thinking — but rarely feel allowed to say out loud.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering:
“Why does this feel so hard already?”
“Why don’t I feel excited yet?”
“Why does this feel heavier than I expected?”

You’re not broken.
You’re not ungrateful.
And you’re not alone.

This episode isn’t about planning.
It’s about naming the invisible weight brides carry — culturally, emotionally, quietly.

27 years ago this week — on December 9th, 1998 — I met a man who would change the entire trajectory of my life.

Not just because I fell in love with him…
but because loving him meant learning how to live between two worlds.

Today’s SAWL episode is one of the most personal I’ve ever recorded:
“Between Two Worlds: The Real Life of Indian American Couples.”

I’m sharing what it really looked like to be the American girl who married an Indian man…

• waiting almost two years for his family’s blessing
• eloping because love couldn’t wait
• blending identities
• fearing I’d lose myself
• finding belonging slowly, then suddenly
• and reliving the wedding I never had through 1,000 of our brides.

If you’re an Indian American couple, a fusion couple, or someone navigating traditions, expectations, or in-laws from another culture — this episode will make you feel so deeply seen.

It’s tender.
It’s honest.
It’s layered.
It’s us.

Watch the full episode on YouTube @amyregeti — and let me know if any part of it sounds like your story too. ♥️
