Wilmington Indian Wedding Photographer - Lily's Banquet Hall Engagement { Arti + Mitesh }

Arti and Mitesh’s Indian Engagement celebration at the Lily’s Banquet Room in Wilmington. It was a hot and humid day! I drove to Wilmington ahead of my schedule to capture Arti’s getting ready photos and family photos. This was a social ceremony- no religious rituals. Gift-givings, blessings, food, drinks and dancing made this a memorable event. I had photographed Arti and Mitesh earlier during their e-session in Southport. Their wedding will take place next year in Wilmington as well. It is going to be a big wedding! I also worked little longer than my schedule. Arti and Mitesh had made arrangements for my overnight stay. Next morning, I went to the waterfront. This is my favorite part of the Wilmington. I have always wanted to do a painting here and I almost completed one before a storm made me pack up!
