Meera and Kedar were married on April 5, 2008 outside of Richmond Virginia, at a gorgeous working farm on the James River. It wasn’t supposed to rain, but it absolutely POURED. It didn’t matter – Meera, Kedar, and their FIVE HUNDRED GUESTS stayed dry and celebrated in a huge beautifully appointed tent. It was a great day! I had the help of some fabulous photographer friends of mine – Allegra, Bob, and Paige. It was great fun to work with this amazingly talented team, to finally meet Bob for the first time, and to *finally* have a chance to hug my dear friend Allegra for the first time since… I think 2004!

Meera and Kedar had a very traditional and long Indian ceremony under the tent, followed by hours of dancing, toasts, and an incredible spread of fragrant and beautiful food for dinner and dessert. My night ended right after the newlyweds took to the stage and sang with the band! They were a terrifically fun, energetic, and drop-dead-gorgeous couple. I’m so happy I got to spend this day with them! And 500 of their closest friends!

Congratulations, Meera and Kedar!!!
