Rich details | Sudha & Andrew's Southern Indian wedding ceremony

Indian Bride and Caucasian Groom kiss * Posted By Natalie and Matt*

It's hard to believe that two years ago (to the day) we photographed our very first Thanksgiving Day wedding when we spent the day with our good friends Sudha and Andrew as they tied the knot in a traditional Indian wedding ceremony in New Jersey. We never got around to blogging about it, though, so we figured 'why not do it now?'

We knew from the beginning that Sudha & Andrew's wedding would be our most unusual event of the year. Partly because it was going to be our first traditional Indian wedding, partly because Sudha had no real interest in wedding planning or being a traditional bride and also because Natalie was going to be one of Sudha's bridesmaids. The very talented Douglas Bovitt, whose work you've seen before, joined us for the day to help document all the amazing details and provide back-up when Natalie had to put her camera down (it was hard to stop taking photos!)

This was an incredibly visual wedding so we won't bore you with too many words. In case you were wondering, the ceremony took place at the Sri Venkateshwara Hindu Temple in Bridgewater, NJ, while the reception was at Westin Governor Morris in Morristown, NJ. Both places were beautiful and really lent themselves to great photos.

And in case these two look familiar, it's because they probably do. This will be their third time on the blog, first time was here (when we had to take Sudha out to learn how to smile in front of the camera!) and second time was their engagement photos.

Happy Thanksgiving to all and happy two year anniversary Sudha and Andrew!
