Blog Swetha + Jay, An Atlanta, Georgia Wedding
Swetha Jasti and Jay Patel celebrated their love with a three-day wedding at the elegant InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta, beautifully captured by @ptaufiqphotography. Rooted in family-first values, culture, and heartfelt moments, the wedding reflected both North and South Indian traditions with equal importance.
The festivities began with intimate family rituals – Grah Shanti, Pooja, and Pithi – followed by a vibrant Sangeet. The evening was filled with colorful performances, heartfelt toasts, and dances by family and friends that set the tone for the celebrations ahead.
The wedding ceremony unfolded in a floral-draped ballroom mandap, symbolizing unity and authenticity. A deeply emotional highlight was the first look, where Jay surprised Swetha with a handwritten letter, a private moment beautifully preserved through the lens.
The celebration culminated in a glamorous reception styled with romantic florals, glowing lights, and nonstop dancing. Heartfelt speeches, lively music, and a late-night party bus ride with close friends ensured the joy carried on well after the formalities.
From Jay’s surprise proposal at Phipps Botanical Garden to this unforgettable wedding weekend, Swetha and Jay’s journey is one of love, laughter, and family. Through every ritual and celebration, P.Taufiq Photography captured the emotion, energy, and timeless elegance of their story.
