“The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds”. This is the thought that rushed to my mind upon watching Kartik and Arushi’s wedding video.

Set at the Khimsar fort in Jodhpur, Rajasthan the wedding destination was perched on the edge of the Thar Desert and it truly had a holiday mood to it. The environment was vibrant with fun filled games like shooting and tug of war and the sound of elated laughter echoed from all corners. The candid wedding shots added glitter to the excitement.

‘Ham to udd gaye’ song playing in the background had an uncanny resemblance to Kartik and Arushi’s love story. Everything about their story gives you the feel of a classic Bollywood film. How they met in their working space and initially didn’t like each other but are now uncontrollably in love, this can surely make a good movie plot. Their love for each other is vivid in their eyes and in the manner they adore at each other.

The wedding ceremony conducted according to Tamil Brahmin customs had a totally different vibe in comparison to the vibrant and exuberant pre wedding ceremonies. There was a total festive mood throughout the ceremonies of haldi and sangeet that were enriched with the colourful dance performances. The splendid setting made the wedding dream like.

Be At Ease - Karthik & Arushi - Wedding CinematographyYou’ll immediately notice that in this wedding, Arushi and Karthik’s friends and family seem to be on a rollercoaster that is all the way up – excitement and joy fill every frame. The video opens to the shenanigans at the wedding – a massive game of tug-of-war, the mannequin challenge, several people being thrown into the pool with increasing glee, beer pong, dancing – and they are a treat to behold! It’s pretty clear that this wedding party ism’t one that is hesitant about painting the town red on account of one of the biggest days of the duo’s life.
