Real wedding

Karthi & Alex

Two ceremonies, two traditions, one weekend.

Boston, Massachusetts, USA

FusionMulti-dayTwo ceremonies

Karthi and Alex gave each tradition its own day and its own look. For the Telugu ceremony, Karthi wore a yellow silk saree with gold temple jewellery and jasmine in her hair; for the church ceremony, a white gown and veil.

By the evening it was a lehenga and a tuxedo, and the two of them hurrying down a hotel corridor towards their reception, laughing.
