Maya + Binit: Interfaith Mountain Wedding
Maya and Binit's Hindu-Christian fusion Wedding took place in the forest and fields of Montfair Resort Farm. The bride got ready in a sweet little cabin surrounded by her bridesmaid who sported their choice of floral gowns. Maya's gown was custom made to include special fabrics- a sari she had chosen, and lace from her Grandmother's wedding dress. Binit came dressed in a traditional sherwani for their first look. The two shared a sweet, tearful moment on the porch of the cabin. Then, Binit was whisked away for his Baraat- a traditional Indian groom's procession leading to the ceremony. The ceremony began with the groom walking down the aisle with his parents, followed by the bride walking down the aisle with hers. Led by Claire Frances- an interfaith minister- their ceremony included elements from both traditions- readings, meditation, blessings, and vows. After the ceremony was done and family photos taken, the couple joined their guests for a picturesque lakeside cocktail hour. Dinner took place inside the lodge as did heartfelt toasts, spirited dancing, and a joyful cake cutting. Maya and Binit's love for eachother is so apparent, and they brought together such an incredibly beautiful and diverse community to celebrate it. Congratulations Maya + Binit!
