{Real Jewish Weddings} Buckhead, GA

Talk about a fusion wedding! Sara and Daniel blended their heritages (she’s Indian/American, he’s Jewish American) to create an elegant day that was truly them. The evening began with a traditional Jewish ceremony beneath a gorgeous huppah: all parents joined the couple under the canopy, and the ketubah design evoked a feeling of Indian artwork. In a unique twist, Daniel’s eight-year-old nephew and five-year-old niece sang the kiddush and motzi blessings before dinner in the magically transformed ballroom, replete with flowers in shades of pink, red and purple, as well as huge beaded lampshades on some of the tables. But the highlight of the room had to be the white starlit dance floor – the LED lights embedded in the floor actually twinkled like stars. The sweetest moment of the evening: when Daniel performed a surprise rap song titled “Fly Together” that he had written for Sara, describing their courtship, including their engagement at Lake Rabun, and declaring his undying love for her. And get this — their favors were such a unique idea: Party Boxes with a chocolate and a Lotto Ticket with a note that said, “We were lucky to find our match and hope you are, too.”

Mazel tov, Sara and Daniel!
