6/8 Jahnnavi And Sameer's Colorful Pellikuturu And Pellikoduku - Telugu Wedding Ceremony - Lansdowne Resort And Spa, Leesburg, Virginia | Indian And South Asian Wedding Photographers

Jahnavi and Sameer’s Traditional Telugu wedding ceremony included their colorful pellikuturu and pellikoduku ceremonies coinciding at the beautiful Lansdowne Resort and Spa located in Leesburg Virginia in adjacent ballrooms with family and friends in attendance.While typically, these are held in the family home for each one, it was awesome to celebrate their wedding on the Fourth of July weekend, allowing everyone to make a vacation out of it!This ritual starts with prayer and is followed by close family members covering them with oil and turmeric or a turmeric mixture of some sort as many can tend to have allergic reactions to the paste. This ritual is similarly referred to as haldi/pithi ceremonies of North India.After post-ceremony, the couple then bathes and wears new clothes that have often been gifted to them. You can view a few of their wedding photos here.
