Wedding Photography Of Rory And Pia

Pia is of Bengali origin, and Rorry is of London origin, envisioned their destination wedding as a picturesque Bengali Wedding in Goa . Pia and Rory had 7 events over three days celebrating their Hindu marriage. They wanted to create a unique Indian wedding experience for their guests. So they chose Goa as the backdrop to their fun-filled festivities.

Pia and Rory are an amazing couple, totally made for each other and we had an amazing time capturing two wedding events from the same family.

Day one – The celebrations kick started with The Mehndi night and welcome functions, at Hampi, the Leela . filled with dances, ladies getting their henna done and of course more partying, which was just as crazy and went on till 10 pm.

Day Two – Sangeet Ceremony, which took place at Fig & Olive lawns, the Holiday Inn Resort, was a gorgeous affair and a great moment for the whole family to bond together. DJ took the dance floor by the storm on the Sangeet night, as the sky opened up, the party became a rain dance that no one will ever forget and went on till 10 pm.

The D-day started off with the small Haldi ceremony in the morning on Thursday, 23rd Feb 2017. The Baraat procession and celebrations took place in daylight. The beddecked bridegroom had arrived on a horse and was welcomed by blowing conch-shell and ululation. The bride entry was by covering her eyes with a pair of betel leaves.

The bride was clad in elegant dark Pink lehenga with a light pretty dupatta. The traditional mukut was placed on her head. Rory wore an off white sherwani and he had a traditional Bengali Topor on his head. Rorry wore an off white Sherwani and he had a traditional Bengali Topot on his head. The ‘Pheras” was held in a lovely canopy. Pia had a huge smile on her face and it stayed throughout the ceremony. They poured the offering into the fire together.

The wedding reception party followed in the evening. The wedding reception , was another feast of fun, food, dance, speech and love. The  location and decor spoke for themselves.

The entire three  days were filled with emotion, laughs, traditions and love. Throughout the 3 days both families were really close as the banter between them was awesome.

Thank you so much to Pia and Rorry, for putting your faith in us and allowing us to capture your beautiful wedding, it truly was an honor, and hope the moments captured bring back all the emotions from special day. Congratulations to you both once again – WEVA

Preethi's father abandoned her family when she was 12. Her mother was really ambitious to pursue a career in medicine and Preethi's father had agreed to it before their marriage. Later, he refused to fulfill his promise. Preeth's father used to physically abuse her mother a lot and due to his abusive behavior, her mother lost 50 percent of eyesight in one of her eyes.

Preethi's mother had to undergo a very intense and traumatic phase due to the fear of losing Preethi to her father. In 10 years' time, her mother realized that there will come a time where she has to take care of little Preethi all on her own. Hence she shifted to Russia for education with Preethi being taken care of by her Mama-Mami. Her mother made sure to visit Preethi once in 3 months.

In the meantime, Preethi's father cheated on her mother by claiming her savings. Once Preethi's mother found out about the matter, she gave up her education in Russia and came back to Preethi. But before she flew back, Preethi's father had already set his journey to Hyderabad and that was the last time Preethi saw her father.

Preethy felt immensely guilty for the difficulties faced by her mother. Her mother soon found a job in a well-reputed firm and she committed to over-time works. Preethi would be already asleep by the time her mother reached home after work. This was Preethi's life for many years. Upon knowing her mother's life, Preethi knew very well about what to find in her partner, subconsciously. The very first thing Preethi noticed in Aben was his dissimilarities with Preethi's father; Aben is extremely honest and open-hearted. Preethi's mother loved Aben when she met him and in 2017, Preethi and Aben decided to get married.

Aben's family was reserved about the proceedings, with Aben being a Christian and Preethi being a Tamil Brahmin. Preethi's mother traveled to Kerala for convincing Aben's parents. But she couldn't get them convinced and she assured Preethi that if Preethi and Aben are happy, she will get them married. In a nutshell, Preethi's mother decided to make use of all her savings to get her daughter married to Aben. Eventually, Aben's family came on good terms.

During the wedding planning, Preethi found out that the 'Kanyadaan' ceremony performed in Tamil weddings is done with the bride being seated on her father's lap. A relative made a suggestion about Preethi being seating on her mother's lap for Kanyadaan. Preethi felt the same because all her life, her mother has been providing her both paternal and maternal care, strength, and love.

Although 5 priests rejected their idea and they argued that it is not right for their culture, Preeti was determined. Within a few weeks, they found a priest who agreed to their idea. While the Kanyadaan was being performed, Preethi and her mother glanced at each other, bursting into tears. Preethi's mother hugged her and ruffled her hair. It was their beautiful moment. It was the least Preethi could do for her mother for what her mother has gone through, giving Preethi the best life. Preethi quotes her mother as a survivor, a warrior, and a protector.
