A Night Under the Stars at Hummingbird Nest Ranch


"This wedding was held at Hummingbird Nest Ranch, a breathtaking venue that was totally transformed from a blank canvas to a multi-cultural, immersive experience that encapsulated the Jewish and Hindu couple Jaime and Varun. The day began with Varun riding up to the bride’s family on a majestic horse covered in jewels for Baraat, a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony involving a grand ribbon-cutting. The altar was covered in rich highlights of gold, pink, orange, and yellow florals, all traditional Hindu colors. Guests received their own personal fans and umbrellas, covering them on a beautiful sunny day. The guests were then transported to the streets of Israel and India, where they sampled various street food staples such as falafel, shawarma, Papdi chaat, and Moong halwa. As the sunset and the night sky appeared, the guests cuddled under the stars while the bride and groom began the Jewish ceremony. Streams of crystals and red and white roses paved the way to a beautiful chuppah. Personalized kaleidoscopes guided each guest to their seats where dangling strands of crystals stood lavishly on mirror reflected tables, a reception room made for royalty as Jaime and Varun danced the night away under the falling stars."
