March 03, 2024 | Bengali Destination wedding
Itachuna Raj Bari, Hooghly, West Bengal
Sandhia and Arghya’s wedding in Kolkata was nothing short of magical. Sandhia, born and raised outside India in a non-Bengali family, and Arghya, deeply rooted in Bengali traditions, found love at their workplace. Their story is one of connection across cultures, a modern love story interwoven with the timeless beauty of a traditional Bengali wedding.
When they decided to celebrate their wedding in Kolkata, they envisioned a grand event that embraced both their heritages. From intimate moments during their Mehendi ceremony to vibrant celebrations at the Haldi, their wedding was a testament to love, unity, and joy. At Muddyearth, we were honored to capture the essence of their special day, ensuring every candid moment and genuine emotion was preserved for eternity.
A Rare Bengali Mehendi Ceremony
Breaking away from traditional Bengali wedding norms, Sandhia and Arghya incorporated a Mehendi ceremony into their celebrations. The atmosphere was alive with colors, laughter, and the aroma of marigolds. As a team specializing in candid wedding photography in Kolkata, we captured the playful exchanges and joyful moments that made the ceremony unique.
A Haldi Ceremony Full of Laughter and Love
The Haldi ceremony was nothing short of a riot of emotions. Friends and family covered the couple in turmeric paste amidst laughter and music. This vibrant pre-wedding ritual offered some of the best candid moments, showcasing the unfiltered joy of everyone involved.
The Grand Bengali Wedding
The main wedding ceremony was a spectacle of tradition. Sandhia looked ethereal in a red and white Bengali saree paired with stunning gold jewelry, while Arghya wore a traditional dhoti and kurta with elegance. Key rituals like Mala Badal and Saat Paak (the bride’s seven encircles of the groom with her face covered by betel leaves) were moments of deep emotion that we ensured were captured with precision and creativity.
Post-Wedding Bliss
After the ceremony, the couple enjoyed a post-wedding shoot at iconic Kolkata locations like Victoria Memorial and Rabindra Sarobar. These moments highlighted their chemistry and the city’s timeless charm, blending their love story with the heart of Kolkata.
