Sneak Peek from My Gorgeous Hindu-American Wedding!


This isn't an "official" photo since it isn't from the wedding photographer but I think it captures the fun of the wedding I coordinated last Saturday.  Talk about a happy couple!

The colors were so rich and saturated, and Sachi from Partyland did an amazing job with the mandap (and all the decor).  I had such a great time at this wedding!  Between the awesome music and the fabulous food and the lovely families, it was worth being on my feet for close to 20 hours.  Stay tuned for more photos from this fun wedding!

Mignonne Handmade Giveaway!

I'm not going to mince words: I love the aesthetic of today's giveaway vendor. Love the styling, the restrained palette, varied textures, and the mix of handmade and vintage pieces. As Mignonne says at her Etsy shop, "I incorporate my own aesthetic when creating these flowers and as a result they are not "perfect" factory made looking pieces, they are all individual and have their own character and quirks." The results are lovely.


The pieces are so perfect for a bride, and yet I know I'd be tempted to wear them again and again (luckily, that's the bonus of flowers like these-- they last!) 



Check out Mignonne's etsy shop for lots of other beauties, including a boutonniere I want to build an entire wedding around. And then email us (weddings@engagingaffairs.com) with Mignonne Handmade in the subject line for a chance to win a $20 gift card! Thanks, Mignonne for sharing your gorgeous creations with us.
