Tampa Indian Fusion Wedding

Hindu with Shaman Wedding 

Details

The couple kept some of their Hindu culture within their intimate wedding. The bride adorned some lovely and personal Henna as well as some customary jewelry for both the bride and groom. Cultural wedding has a lot of unique touches that traditional western weddings may not include. Typically cultural weddings are very detail and custom heavy which makes for some different and unique photographs for the couple. 

The Ceremony

Intimate was the word of the day for this couple. They really wanted to keep the ceremony as intimate as possible. The couple followed by a very small amount of close friends and the grooms mother were a part of the ceremony. The couple really wanted the focus to be about the ceremony and the joining of their relationship together. Hillsborough River state park is very serene and made for a great area. The bride absolutely love nature and what it stands for and wanted the ceremony to take place surrounded by it.  A tropical storm almost derailed the plans but thankfully the park did not sustain damage the day before and was able to open for this late afternoon affair. 

First Look and Formals

With only having guests arrive for a reception the couple really wanted to get as much done prior to ceremony as possible so they could mingle and greet their guests as they arrived. We found a nice quite area away from where the ceremony was set up to take couples portraits and do a first look
