RP Tip #1: Don’t forget your photographer!

Disclaimer: RP Tips are based solely on our experiences as full time wedding photographers and posted at our discretion. RP Tips may not suit everyone’s wants or needs. RP Tips are offered as a benefit to brides planning their wedding day in an effort to get the best results from a photographer from our stand point. RP Tips are a trademark of Regeti’s Photography owned and operated by Amy and Srinu Regeti.

Regeti's Photography Wedding Tip 01

Many Brides hire their photographer based on the work that they have seen and moments that we have captured, yet their family members aren’t aware of why you wanted us nor are they familiar with our work in some cases. Many are hesitant to let us capture the most important part of the day without worry or concern that the Bride is in her undergarments, however these are the moments that are so fleeting and cast away so quickly! Make people aware of how important your photos are to you.Â

The most valuable tool for your wedding day is a well planned time line allowing for cushion as a wedding is an uncontrolled event as we should say. When it comes to your pictures don’t forget your photographer, shooting wonderful images is not about completely being caught in the moment or posed formals, but when you give your photographer the time he/she needs to take you and your DH along with your bridal party aside outside of formal time it can open doors to lots of great opportunities for some fun time with everyone. Just think of all the time that has been involved in asking your bridal party to be part of your day along with picking the right colors and dresses to suit each and the fact that you may never see your DH in a tux/suit ever again, it’s just not somthing we do everyday of our lives!

    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.

    If you want storytellers who notice the moments that matter most, explore more at theregetis.com.

    And join us at SAWL.life for deeper conversations around the South Asian wedding experience.

    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.
