Maui, HI Indian Wedding by Chris J Evans

The useful part

If there were ever a destination wedding that could convince you to pack your bags immediately, this might be it. Picture turquoise waters, dramatic island cliffs, vibrant Gujarati traditions, and a dance floor that refused to call it a night. The celebrations began quietly with Priya's bridal mehndi before guests gathered for a family mehndi and an intimate ocean-view dinner.

How it works

• The following morning brought a vibrant Haldi celebration, where brilliant shades of yellow and pink transformed the lawn into a joyful explosion of color.
• Surrounded by ocean views, family members showered Priya and Shrill with turmeric, flower petals, blessings, and plenty of playful laughter.
• Watching an ancient ritual unfold against Maui's tropical scenery was a beautiful reminder that traditions have an incredible way of feeling at home wherever love takes them.
• It was the perfect opportunity for loved ones to reconnect, share stories, and settle into island life before the festivities truly began.

Details worth keeping

Some weddings transport you to another place. Priya & Shrill's wedding transported everyone into an experience.
