RITUALS & REFLECTIONS: THE SOUTH ASIAN INDIAN AND FUSION BRIDES CLARITY GUIDE By Amy & Srinu Regeti — Nearly Two Decades Behind the Lens of South Asian Love Stories Your wedding will be one of the most extraordinary seasons of your life — but it can also be one of the most overwhelming. Between family expectations, cultural traditions, vendor decisions, and the pressure to create an unforgettable celebration, it’s easy to lose yourself in the process. Rituals & Reflections is not another wedding checklist, timeline, or Pinterest board. This is your pre-planning companion — a beautifully designed clarity guide written for South Asian and fusion brides who want more than “pretty.” You want peace. You want confidence. You want your wedding to feel like you . Consider this the R&R you need before the planning begins. What You’ll Discover Inside: Heart-led Reflection Prompts — uncover what truly matters before the noise of planning takes over. - Cultural Context & Insight — navigate traditions with grace, whether you’re honoring them fully, blending them, or creating your own. - Expert Wisdom — drawn from photographing hundreds of Indian weddings worldwide, we share the real behind-the-scenes truths no vendor brochure will tell you. - Your Personal Voice — exercises to help you communicate your vision clearly to your partner, family, and wedding team. - Peace in the Process — tools to help you manage expectations, set boundaries, and actually enjoy the journey. Why This Work Book is Different: We’ve spent nearly 20 years not just photographing weddings, but witnessing them — holding space for brides who’ve laughed, cried, compromised, and triumphed through this incredible rite of passage. We’ve seen the emotional weight that comes with South Asian and fusion weddings: the multiple events, the layered traditions, and the desire to make both your family and yourself proud. This book exists because you deserve more than a “perfect” wedding day. You deserve an experience that honors your heritage, celebrates your love, and leaves you feeling whole. Luxe, Giftable, and Timeless — Rituals & Reflections is printed on premium paper, only offered in paperback with elegant design details that make it as beautiful to hold as it is to read and easy enough to tuck away in your purse or laptop bag. It’s the kind of book you’ll keep long after your wedding, revisiting the words, wisdom, and memories as you move into married life. Perfect For: The bride who wants clarity before booking a single vendor. - The fusion bride balancing two or more cultures. - The South Asian bride navigating traditions in a modern world. - Friends, siblings, and mothers looking for a meaningful engagement gift.
