Capturing the essence of love: Ankita and Preetam's Indian wedding at San Jose Marriott

In the heart of Silicon Valley, where dreams often take center stage, Ankita and Preetam decided to write their own love story against the breathtaking backdrop of the San Jose Marriott. Their wedding wasn't just a celebration; it was a symphony of tradition, laughter, and the undeniable magic of love.


I still remember the day when Ankita reached out through our online submission form and I connected with her right away. It was the easiest call I ever had, I told her how we approach wseddings, asked her what her requirements were, told her what the price would be and in 2 days the initial deposit was made. All of this was 10 months ahead of their wedding, so she was definitely on top of her planning game.


Picture this: the modern elegance of San Jose Marriott blending seamlessly with the timeless traditions awaiting Ankita and Preetam. It was more than just a venue; it was the perfect setting for a celebration that was both grand and intimately personal. They both had perfectly curated and complementing outfits. The venue itself became a canvas, adorned with the deep purples and greens of tradition, creating a visual feast that told the story of their rich Indian heritage.



The festivities started with a First look planned by Ankita. Preetam was pleasantly surprised and the moments were perfectly captured by my team and I. The courtyard was a perfect setting for the First Look as it was a plain canvas with a huge structure. We then progressed towards couple portraits followed by some quick pictures with immediate family members. That was immediately followed by Baraat where there was a Dhol player mixed with some upbeat desi music.


Their wedding ceremony, a blend of tradition and sacred rituals, unfolded beneath a beautifully adorned mandap. As vows were exchanged, the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers, marking the official start of their journey amidst heartfelt blessings. Ankita and Preetam infused a touch of modernity into their celebration, marrying the old and the new effortlessly. The culinary offerings at San Jose Marriott were nothing short of spectacular. From traditional Indian dishes to global delights, the menu was a feast for the senses, ensuring that every guest embarked on a delightful culinary journey.
