You’ve seen emotional vows in christian weddings and movies, but here we have an adorable hindu couple who embraced the beautiful ritual of vows.
Akhil and Dhwani got married in a grand celebration in February this year, with alluring outfits, beautiful decor, fun dances and heart melting vows. This article will not only talk about their amazing wedding photos as usual, but also give you a peak into their lovely 7 part vows. If you’re someone who’s planning to get married soon, get ready to be inspired!
“ I vow to always come to you.
I promise that your hand will be the only hand I clutch when I spot a flying insect or when there’s turbulence on a plane. I promise to come to you with all the gossip and I’ll also come to you to vent out after a bad day. I’ll come to you when I’m happy when I’m sad when I’m nervous when I’m scared when I’m excited, but I’ll always come to you!”
Mehendi Ceremony
“I vow to be a good listener.
I want your worst- give me your bad days at work, your long commutes and traffic jams, your lost keys, your missed alarms, your annoying phone calls, bounced cheques, bad wifi, your low battery… give me your every day, and I will give you my love, a strong shoulder and both my ears, to make it alright.”
Dhwani donned a fabulous sage green two piece modern lehenga with a flamboyant top for her mehendi ceremony. She looks beautiful, gleeming with intricate mehendi design which is thoughtful and symbolic of their long distance relationship. Even Akhil got an adorable mehendi design on his hand!
Haldi Ceremony
“I vow to guide you with your best interest at my heart.
I promise to tell you what you can pull off clothes-wise and be honest when its not just working. I’ll motivate you every time you want to take the next step. I’ll call you out too when I feel you’re wrong. I’ll be your friend, philosopher and I’ll be always want whats best for you.”
The haldi ceremony is the most color filled wedding rituals in India, filled with warm and joyous moments. For her haldi, the bride wore a beautiful yellow and orange lehenga and added floral ornaments to finish her stunning look, and we’re huge fans of this look!
Sangeet Ceremony
“I vow to love and respect you.
Even as you scan through all those movies without picking one to watch. Even as you come up with very questionable ideas. Even when you Yawn mid-conversation. Even if you love pineapple pizza topping or eat vanilla ice cream. I’m going to love you and going to keep you.”
This sangeet ceremony was a dash of glamour and fun, and we can see that through the pictures and the expressions of the couple! Dhwani rocked a fabulous dark blue printed lehenga and Akhil mesmerised us with his dashing green and golden sherwani look! Sangeet is one of everyone’s favorite wedding ceremonies, and this one looks extremely fun, filled with dance performances, laughter and joy.
The Wedding Ceremony
“I vow to always be there for you when you need me. Sometimes, even when you don’t need me.
I promise to comfort you when you order pineapple pizza or when you prefer cheesecake over chocolate cake. My only wish is to be the person you chose to sit next to in the room with all the people in history ever.”
Finally came the wedding ceremony, with Dhwani in her intricate, fierce classic red and gold wedding lehenga and Akhil in his white sequin sherwani and turban. The happiness and elation of the couple truly shines through the photos. Looking at these pictures, we can feel the chemistry, love and connection this couple has, and we couldn’t be happier for them.
The Reception
“I vow to try and have the tolerance and patience that love demands.
To speak when words are required and share the silence when they are not.
I promise I’ll try to be patient as we both adjust, find our way, find our groove and create our own perfect world. “
The reception ceremony photos are oozing with sophistication and glamour. Akhil slayed a dapper classic tux and Dhwani gave us a mind blowingly ethereal white princess gown moment and we’re living for it!
This charming couple has won our hearts with their amazing looks and their even more remarkable and fascinating love for each other that shines through their vows. That said, here’s the final vow:
“I vow to live this ADventure with you.
Let’s be silly together. Let’s just be stupid and eat unhealthy things (but also workout) and make bad decisions ( but also be responsible). Let’s learn that shuffle. Let’s stay up late and watch FRIENDS or any episode and then run around like crazies in the morning.
Let’s do it! It’ll be an adventure. Let’s live for the moments! Let’s make memories!”
