Aparna and Gurbinder met online and dated long distance for one year and a half. Aparna was in Dallas while Gurbinder lived in Houston, but they didn’t let the geographical distance separate their hearts.

Planning a Hindu wedding its a real task, but when you are planning a Hindu destination wedding in Mexico, a country that is not your own, it takes even more commitment, dedication, and patience. They were getting close and had pretty much every detail taken care of, and then…

The year 2020 took a turn that no one was expecting, and everything had to be put on pause. It was kind of like a metaphor for their relationship. In the beginning, they wanted to be together, but had to be patient and understanding to make it through the long distance. And now, here they were planning their wedding and the were being tested with the same values. Since they had learned so much from the beginning of their relationship, they were able to keep positive attitudes, keep the faith, and wait it out. They worked together with Tiruya from Bravura Brides, and they knew the show would go on when the time was right.

And they were so happy that they did because they celebrated  not only the three days of wedding celebrations with their friends and family, but also had the days surrounding their events to spend vacation time that they had all been waiting so long for. Their wedding was even more special because it was one of the first times that people could get out and enjoy themselves after the pandemic passed, and everyone wanted to celebrate!  They chose one of the best venues for cutting loose and having a good time: the Hard Rock Cancun in Mexico. The weather was perfect, their were no masks needed, and it was an unforgettable week for everyone! The South Asian destination wedding photography highlights what an amazing time everyone had.
