Jaqui & Raj's Indian and Christian Wedding - Palm Coast FL Wedding Photographer

There's always a first for everything! This is the first time Bobby and I photographed an Indian ceremony, and it was soooo much fun! We fell in love at first sight when we saw all the beautiful and colorful details at Jaqui and Raj's gorgeous Hindu ceremony at Hammock Beach Resort :) It was also our first time working with wedding coordinator, Zandra, with Alpha and Omega Event Consultants and her staff, and we are very thankful that we finally did. I know that a lot of hard work was put into this wedding, and we can't be thankful enough for being a part of this magical day!

Jaqui and Raj looked absolutely amazing!! I could just take pictures of Jaqui all day in her Sari and jewels, but we had no time to spare since they had their Christian ceremony right after their Hindu wedding. Speaking of that, I will blog the Catholic ceremony and their reception details separately. I have TONS of favorites from this wedding, and it was so hard to pick my Top 20 for the blog. So therefore, wait for tomorrow to check out Part 2 :)

Be sure to check out the slideshow for more pictures :) I am huge fan of Bollywood music, and the first song they chose for their slideshow is amazing!! I think I've played it over 500 times now since Raj shared the song with me :)


Enjoy!
XOXO

THEIR LOVE STORY:


How did you guys meet?

Raj and I met through Craigslist. I posted and add for a female roommate. I did not get any response except for Raj. We were roommates for 3 years. After that, we both bought separate houses in the same neighborhood and started dating. You can also check our wedding website www.jaquiandraj.com for more info on our story :)

Describe the proposal:

We already talked about getting engaged, but I did not think Raj was going to propose within 2 weeks of talking about it! Raj bought a tiny messenger bag for my dog and wrote love notes sending my dog to me. He did this 3 times then finally my dog, Sammy had a box in the bag. It was empty, but Raj came out of the corner and knelt down, the rest as they say is history.
