We love all things bright and beautiful, and Anita + Abhishek’s spring wedding was the epitome of just that. Anita + Ab’s wedding at Kiana Lodge featured lots of vibrant colors and gorgeous spring flowers in the perfect Pacific Northwest setting, nestled within pine trees along the Puget Sound. In classic PNW fashion, we had rain, but that didn’t stop the party from happening! We made the best of it, and brought the beauty of spring indoors.
Prepare to be short of breath when you see these getting ready photos, the bright colors, and all of the beautiful henna tattoo artwork Anita donned.
Their color palette was so fun and vibrant and consisted of mandarin orange, bright pinks and fuchsias, marigold yellow, teal and deep ink purple.
It wasn’t just her bouquet that was a stunner. Check out their wedding party and their beautiful saris– don’t forget the groomswoman’s breathtaking blue lengha!
As part of their wedding party photos, they rented colorful vintage umbrellas which added a playful touch to their photos and allowed them to capture some outdoor photos, despite the rain–a great alternative we always suggest when there is rain in the forecast! With the unexpected rain, we had to move the ceremony inside, but it still looked lovely in the lodge with a carpet of pink and orange rose petals down the aisle, and the most beautiful compote arrangements to polish it off!
Their ceremony incorporated Indian and western ceremony traditions, giving it richness and diversity!
The reception followed in suit, donning rich greens, vibrant pinks, bright oranges, and deep yellows. We still swoon over the sight of all of the color, and all the special touches, like Anita’s brother singing his toast!
Throughout the day, Anita & Ab incorporated cute personal details, such as cookies that resembled them, a tandem bike for their cake topper, and a colorful graffiti style painting of the Seattle skyline for their guests to sign in lieu of a traditional guestbook!
After they danced the night away {and had an outfit change!} came the farewell, and rather than having a sparkler departure, they opted to use glow sticks as a final nod to their colorful theme before they were whisked away in a vintage Rolls Royce.
We hope you enjoyed perusing all of these beautiful moments from Anita + Ab’s wedding as much as we still do! If you haven’t seen enough, check out this video by Cab Fare Productions!
