Nicole and Rohan celebrated both of their cultures through a full weekend of Hindu and Christian wedding traditions, timed with peak fall color and the Diwali festival of lights.

From a lively sangeet to dual ceremonies, each moment honored heritage while flowing seamlessly across the weekend.

Working closely with Wildflower Events, we developed a floral story rooted in bold autumn palettes, evolving from marigold-filled rituals to a vibrant lakeside ceremony and a richly layered reception inspired by Dutch master paintings.

The result was a cohesive, joy-filled celebration shaped by color, texture, and thoughtful transitions.
