Sumptuous Hindu Ceremony and American-Influenced Celebration at the Andaz Scottsdale

Aditi Chandra and Michal Sokolowski celebrated their nuptials with two festive events, a Hindu ceremony followed by a traditional American-style celebration. For the Hindu ceremony, rich pink tones permeated the day, and the bride wore a traditional saree in colorful orange and gold. She accessorized her look with coordinating bracelets and henna decorating her hands and arms. The bridesmaids also embraced Hindu tradition and rocked neutral golden sarees to match their bride. For the outdoor Hindu ceremony, a statement floral arch was adorned with multi-colored flowers and round crystal chandeliers infusing glamour and sophistication to the occasion, while customary orange floral garlands lined the aisle in a swirl pattern and cascaded from pots at the ceremony entrance. For the American celebration, the bride wore a flowing floor-length gown, while her bridesmaids donned green numbers. Abundant white rose petals defined the aisle, leading up to extravagant monochromatic white arrangements of roses and orchids in crystal vases. The white and green motif carried through to the reception, and even the cake—a lovely four-tier stunner with gold edges.
