15 Jun Rutvi + Milan // A 3-Day Wedding
Three days of amazing Indian culture wrapped into one trailer. After seeing much of our previous South Asian cinematic wedding film work, Rutvi and Milan contacted us. They loved our style and the way we captured the beautiful Indian wedding traditions.
On the first night, their Mehendi celebration and musical event took place at the Waterford Banquet and Conference Center in Elmhurst, Illinois, where we are one of their preferred vendors for wedding videography. Their beautiful Moroccan-themed room, was designed by Dream Occasions in Hanover Park, Illinois. On the second day, they had their Garba/Raas celebration. The third day culminated in a beautiful wedding ceremony, which was also at the Waterford Banquet and Conference Center.
We frequently see couples exchanging cards or gifts in the morning, but we haven’t seen it done with an iPad. One of Rutvi’s wedding gifts to Milan was an iPad. In the iPad, she typed a beautiful note to Milan. We captured a portion of that letter in this trailer. Rutvi also came up with the idea to do a first look (in front of the mandap). For the first time on their wedding day, Rutvi and Milan were able to see each other. It was a beautiful moment we were able to capture.

This film, which was entirely scripted by the couple, is a hilarious look at how that day went. The film continues to include engagement pictures of them together, which were taken by Kyle Flubacker, and what it might look like for their future. Enjoy!
