Probably one of our most asked-about clients is the famous Rakesh and Vidya Gopalan; after the posting of their e-session to the blog all we heard were their names! Everyone loved their engagement photos in Georgetown and kept saying that they were the “pretty couple”, let their South Indian wedding day be no different as the two of them truly owned it!
Vidya and Rakesh are one of those couples that as photographers you cannot wait to photograph their wedding, but at the same time, you know that you are going to be saddened that the day has come and while you know that it snuck up you, you just don’t want to ever lose touch! We hope that these two will keep us up to date and check in with us from time to time as their marriage strengthens and perhaps their family expands; no rush though guys live it up while you can!
From the bottom of our hearts, it was both an honor and a pleasure to photograph your amazing day and in turn, be blessed to be in the presence of your family and friends. You are both unforgettable!
As a final note, there was a few words given during Vidya’s father’s speech that will always stay vivid to me having two girls ourselves; we can only hope that they too will find great men like Rakesh once their time comes! So I leave you with a little quote from Vidya’s wonderful dad as he tells Rakesh to always remember:
“Heads Vidya wins, tails Vidya wins, and in the end, you win Vidya.”
Shout outs to the talented team who worked relentlessly in order to make their day unforgettable:
The ever-so seasoned and talented Prabha Bhambri with Nivanjoli with the decor. Her designs can be breathtaking!
Jeffrey with Thomas Bowen Films is discrete as can be; his unobtrusive approach was a pleasure to have around, can’t wait to see the final product!
Binder and Vishal with eventEQ on the DJ and Lighting as always a fabulous job; simply can’t go wrong with these guys!
The Sheraton National was on top of its game with its friendly and courteous staff; Betsy is always a pleasure to work alongside!
Lastly, the delicious cuisine catered by none other than that of Bollywood Bistro!
