Nikita and Sharath
Nikita and Sharath are without a doubt the cutest couple ever. Nikita and Sharath met at UC San Diego where they were both doing their masters and working on projects together. From project partners to good friends to dating and then getting married in August 2022, their love story is straight out of a rom-com!
If there was one thing Nikita and Sharath knew about their wedding, it was that they wanted to have fun and not be tired! So, this couple made sure to space out the events so that they could enjoy each and every function to the fullest, along with their family and friends of course! Nikita said the wedding planning process came with its ups and downs, but she had an absolute blast planning it with her loved ones and in retrospect, she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Keeping in sync with a big fat Indian wedding, this couple had quite a few events and functions! On the first day, they had the haldi, pellikuthuru and pellikoduku. Nikita wore a fabulous outfit from Ekaya Banaras for the pellikuthuru while Sharath kept it chic and classy in an outfit from Seema Gujral Design. The next day, there was a mehendi in the afternoon followed by a sangeet at night. The sangeet was definitely the highlight for Nikita and Sharath, especially because both sides of their family had never experienced a sangeet before this! The couple, their friends and their loved ones danced the night away, let their hair down and put on their dancing shoes till the wee hours of the morning.
In fact, for Nikita, her fondest memory was watching Sharath dance with her otherwise shy father to a rather funny Telugu song. The couple danced to a handful of songs, including Lover" and "Gunde jaari gallanthayinde", and can we just saw that their performance was lit! For the mehendi function, the couple twinned in stunning outfits by Anita Dongre. And for the sangeet, Nikita looked jaw-dropping in an elegant outfit by Aisha Rao while Sharath adorned an outfit by Varun Chikkilam.
The next night was the wedding followed by the reception. Nikita looked absolutely flawless in a stunning outfit by Studio Rama while Sharath chose Jayanti Reddy Label and Eli Thoma for the wedding and reception outfits! For Sharath, his fondest wedding memory was seeing Nikita on the wedding day. In his words, “My mind was blown. She looked breathtaking.”
As it turns out, our production house had shot the wedding of a couple who happened to be their friends. In Nikita’s words, “When I saw the final photographs by LightBucket Productions, I was blown away. That’s when I decided I wanted to work with you guys. The one thing I loved the most was that your photographers would literally get in the midst of the madness and capture all those special moments. Overall, my experience was amazing and professional and I cannot thank your team enough for these beautiful memories that I will cherish forever.”
