Big Takeaways

More South Asian weddings are considered marriages of two families, and not two individuals, so there tends to be much more family involvement in every step of the wedding planning process.

South Asian couplese often to see each other in their wedding wardrobes far before the wedding day itself.

There is a lot factors like matching colors and fits that come into play. The magic, though, is still just as potent during the ceremony.

Shivangi and Shashank’s customers often leave their dresses with them for alterations and such before the big day. So there is an added element of joy and surprise when they go back to pick them up.

You don't have to go completely traditional nor "off the rack". There is so much customization that can be done.
