Divya & Santosh | Indian Wedding at the Minneapolis Event Center and Hilton Downtown Minneapolis

Divya and Santosh were married in Minneapolis early in September with a week's worth of Wedding Celebrations. One blog post of images can't fully convey the magnitude of this event, but we will try. :) There were other gatherings that we did not photograph, but the primary events were the Barat and Sangeet at the Minneapolis Event Center and then the Wedding ceremony, lunch reception and dinner reception at the Hilton Downtown Minneapolis. They had around 600 guests join them for parts of the weekend and we clocked nearly 30 hours of photography coverage for the event - so you can imagine that an event like this takes a herculean effort from a large team of talented vendors (and a LOT of energy from the Bride and Groom and their families!) to run with success. Anna and her team from Sunrise Styling knocked the ball out of the park with their vision, organization and manual labor that was required to pull off such a detailed wedding. We are amazed by you, Anna! We were pleased to have Mandi and Joey join our photo team for the weekend, so between the four of us, and the trio of crew from The Story of Us Films (the video team) we were quite the paparazzi crew during the event! As we watched Divya and Santosh go through their wedding celebrations, we were left in amazement of how energetic, grounded and loving they were to EVERYONE they came into contact with. It was truly a blast for everyone, which made our job so enjoyable! This is definitely a wedding we'll remember with great fondness for the rest of our career - and one I know the couple and family will cherish for the rest of their lives. Congratulations Divya and Santosh!!!
