Myra and Riken celebrated their Hindu wedding at Hard Rock Riviera Maya in Mexico, surrounded by family and friends who traveled to share this joyful destination celebration.

The first time they ever spoke to each other was on their high school graduation and after that day, they knew they were meant to be. In the beginning, it wasn’t easy as they had a long distance relationship during their college years, but life brought them back together, and here we are now celebrating their true love!!

With the help and advice from the amazing Nirali Shah, Myra and Riken found the perfect place for their dream South Asian destination wedding: the Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya.

Their Hindu Wedding Ceremony took place in an ultra-romantic oceanfront gazebo on the hotel’s spacious terrace. The Hindu wedding ceremonies can sometimes be a more serious affair, Myra and Riken had smiles on their faces during the entire ceremony! After some portraits around the property with their South Asian destination wedding photographer, they took a moment to change and prep for the Civil Wedding Ceremony.

Myra shared a few words with her Cancun wedding photographers: “Before the ceremony, as I was watching everyone walk towards the gazebo, I turned around and noticed Riken standing there talking to his friends. I was hiding behind a golf cart, and I was a bit nervous and frustrated that someone might see me before it was time. As soon as I saw him, everything else just faded away. I wasn’t frustrated anymore. I  instantly became emotional, and it finally dawned on me that I was about to marry my best friend.”

Hindu destination weddings are such a celebration with several days of events, and this destination wedding had it all. Myra and Riken had two ceremonies. One to represent the culture and traditions of the bride and the groom. Their wedding photographers were overjoyed to photograph the newlyweds in colorful garments as well as the traditional white dress and black tux. Their wedding photography gallery was brimming with emotional and creative images from all the celebration. And their plan was brought to life by their amazing wedding vendors listed below.
