Aarti and Russell

Wedding season is almost coming to a close and we have had some amazing weddings!

This weekend was no exception our couple Aarti and Russell combined their Jewish and Hindu background into two amazing ceremonies at the NY Metropolitan Club. 

It all started with an amazing Baraat across 5th Avenue! Once inside the club guests took their seats for the Hindu ceremony, followed by a Jewish ceremony. Once our couple had exchanged their vows guests enjoyed a grand cocktail hour display. After a little bit of chatting and mingling everyone headed upstairs to the Presidents Ballroom for a elegant sit down dinner and some very emotional speeches by the families of the couple. 

After dinner their friends and families came back downstairs for a night of dancing with Hank Lane singing some of the latest top 40 hits. 

We would like to wish nothing but the best to Aarti and Russell!
