Swetha and Chris’s Engagement Photos | Washington DC

Swetha and Chris’ engagement session at Union Station in Washington DC was the perfect place with the perfect amount of overcast to catch two of what certainly felt and looked like the happiest people in the world! Call me what you will perhaps I am a too sentimental when it comes to our fused weddings as it’s so personal for me being married into one of the greatest cultures in the world but I see all the amazing adventures, stories, milestones, struggles and the memories that these two are about to create and I become covered in goosebumps. Swetha’s smile is infectious. In the short amount of time I spent with her throughout the booking process I can assure you that Chris must have checked all the boxes and then some as Swetha is one of the most thorough brides I have ever come across, I love that about her theres no guessing with her and I think that is what attracts everyone to her because she is genuine I believe even Chris finds that in her – it provides those around her with the ability to almost innately give her your trust.
Counting down the days for these two to tie the knot in August!

    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.

    “Whose wedding are you planning?”

A page pulled from Rituals & Reflections.

Weddings in our community can feel like a tug-of-war — the past on one side, expectations on another, and your own voice somewhere in between.
Before the timelines.
Before the RSVPs.
Before anything else…

Ask yourself the one question that shapes everything:
Whose wedding are you planning?

A deeper reflection is on the blog today — and if you’re looking for clarity as you begin this journey, Rituals & Reflections is the perfect place to start.

    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.

“When Two Worlds Collide: How Culture Became Our Superpower” ✨

This week, Srinu and I sat down to talk about the REAL journey of blending two worlds — the friction, the growth, the pride, the parenting, the partnership… and how those differences became our biggest strength as a couple.

If you’re navigating culture, family, tradition, or expectations in your relationship — this episode will feel like home.

All links available in BIO.

There’s so much more coming, and we’re building this community with you.
