Kristen & Sidd’s Lovely Royal Melbourne Wedding

Jul 27

Kristen and Sidd met in early 2019 when they were both living in NYC. Sidd talked nonstop on their first date, and they slowly fell in love on long walks together around the city and over lots of pancakes. Sidd proposed on a trip to Sevilla, Spain and the newly engaged couple moved to the Washington DC area last summer.

I loved spending time with Kristen and Sidd in downtown Chicago for their engagement session last Fall. Kristen is quiet but Sidd brings out her sweetness and warmth, it was a joy to see how they perfectly complement one another. When it came time for their Royal Melbourne wedding this June Christy and I were excited to head back to this gorgeous venue to celebrated Kristen and Sidd’s love. Kristen and Sidd chose an “Indian fusion” theme for their wedding to honor both of their cultural backgrounds – the bridesmaids wore gorgeous light blue saris while the groomsmen looked handsome in their custom gold suits. Kristen looked angelic in her beautiful dress from Volle’s, her gown looked like it was made just for her. After a sweet reveal with her bridesmaids and Dad Kristen went outside of the club to see Sidd for their First Look. Sidd lit up when he saw his stunning bride and couldn’t take his eyes off her for the rest of the day!

During Kristen and Sidd’s ceremony they incorporated some meaningful Indian traditions. We loved the moment when Sidd placed a beautiful necklace on his bride to signify their matrimonial bond and provide Kristen with blessings in their marriage. Adorned with flower garlands the newlyweds kissed and made their way to an unforgettable celebration at their reception. It was the perfect day, we were honored to be a part of it.
