Question
How many days is the whole event?
Answer
Our wedding is technically 2 days long, starting on Sunday (09/06) and ending on Monday (09/07). However, our main wedding date is on Monday with both our Hindu and Christian ceremonies. The other days will consist of other Indian wedding functions.

Answer
Each event has a recommended dress code and some color palettes (excluding our ceremonies), but please know these are COMPLETELY OPTIONAL—your attendance is what matters most to us! The Attire Guide page includes more details, inspiration, and color examples. We also have some purchasing links in another question called "How do I know what to wear to the Indian functions?" with some more specific details for guests interested!

Question
Will there be photography at the events?
Answer
We'll have photographers at every event to capture all the special moments, but we're also setting up backdrops and photo booths for guests to enjoy on their own. Please note that our photographers will be focused on covering the events themselves, so the photo booths are your space to have fun and snap your own memories! Keep an eye out for QR codes throughout the events — they'll link you to a shared drive where you can upload your photos too.
Question
How far apart are the venues?
Answer
The venues are approximately 45-50 minutes apart - please plan accordingly! Please see our ‘Travel’ page for more details.
