Whose wedding is it anyway, Hanna?

Okay many apologies for the delay in posting as we have had many things happening here at Regeti’s! Many exciting things to officially announce to include our new location! The Regeti’s are growing, our expansion proves it!

We have lots to blog about but tonight we are going to give the spot light to Josh and Shejal, one of the most happiest married couples we have had the pleasure of working with!

As many of us probably were watching the weather report together I am sure everyone knows that hurricane Hanna swept through the east coast and let me tell you that we were worried!!! Out of all the weddings that this could have happened to, it happened to Shejal and Josh who planned out just about everything possible with their wonderful coordinator Claudia Lutman to ensure a flawless affair, little did any of us realize that “God” above at any rate can not be purchased, the one little detail that we did not imagine could take place is a HURRICANE! Being in Baltimore and right near the Harbor the winds were ridiculous. Upon arriving to Shejal’s bridal suite at the Colonnade Inn you could see in her face that she was feeling a bit stressed and worried about the weather considering that their wedding was to take place under this beautiful massive tent at the Evergreen Museum and it was just pouring down non-stop. By the time we began taking group shots and formals it did however let up a bit until we arrived on site at Evergreen then another phase came in shortly after and calmed once more, just after Josh finished coming in and right before Shejal began to take her walk to meet Josh it began to pour for what was thankfully the very last time for that day! As the wind pounded back and forth on the side walls of the tent, I don’t think anyone really noticed as the two proceeded into a fused Hindu-Christian ceremony. Josh as he said his vows began to break as he briefly regrouped and carried on through to the end. Many would think that seeing a wedding almost every weekend out of the year would cause a person to become numb to their surroundings, however I think that we would beg to differ. We are so much aware of everything around us and the love that is so strong within the air that it almost could be bottled and labeled “love” as corny as that may sound. When they were announced and took on the dance floor it was like watching “High School Musical” they make such music together as you watched them dance in beat with one another as Josh lip sang the words and Shejal grooved along side of him. It was enough to make one put down the camera and grab the popcorn and soda pop and hope that they never stopped. These, ladies and gentlemen, are the moments we shoot for, these are the weddings that throw our own hearts into overdrive and inspire our own love to grow, so when some say that you can become numb to it… I think that it is safe to say that love is like wisteria it just grows so rapidly and can consume a person so much that it becomes more of a high, as wedding photographers that is addictive, we say bring it on!

Thanks to Shejal and Josh for entrusting us with the documentation for their wedding day and to Claudia Lutman for sending such an awesome referral our way!

    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.

    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.

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.

    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.
