When tradition meets grandeur, the result is nothing short of magical, and this Anand Karaj is proof! It was all about love, laughter, and a beautiful mix of Punjabi and Gujarati cultures.
What made it even more special? The little details that reflected the couple’s journey—from their dreamy venue to the non-stop dancing (because of course, a Bhangra jodi had to bring the moves!). Dressed in regal ensembles that exuded grace and charm, they looked straight out of a dream, but what truly stole the show was their effortless chemistry.
Scroll through to witness a celebration that is equal parts royal and heartwarming!
Meet Rima & Shivdeep
"Back in college, I joined a Bhangra team called Alamo City Bhangra, and Shiv was already on the team. The captain paired us up as jodis (dance partners) for the competition. We were friends at first, then we started dating, and now we're married. My first jodi became my forever jodi." - penned, the bride

About The Wedding
"This was a dream wedding for us. I saw the venue in a magazine 10 years ago and fell in love with the idea of having a traditional aesthetic and a grand hotel setting. Years later, thanks to our parents, they made our wildest dreams come true. We are both from the U.S., so we wanted our wedding to be a regal and royal experience filled with excitement and dancing. I am Gujarati, and he is Punjabi, so it was important to us that both of our cultures were showcased throughout the events. Since we were on the dance team together, of course, we had to include a bunch of performances!"
