Sama and Zach, Raffles, Udaipur

Sama and Zach's story began when they met for coffee through a mutual friend. Sama, originally from Delhi, moved to the U.S. for school, while Zach, a Bay Area native, had lived in various places. Their strong connection led to Zach's proposal on Sama's birthday two and a half years later.

They chose India for their wedding to honor Sama's roots, blending traditions with a Hindu ceremony and a vows exchange. Celebrations included a rehearsal dinner, a Mehendi ceremony, and the wedding itself.

Despite a brief rain before the Varmala ceremony—seen as good luck—the rain stopped as Sama walked down the aisle. The pheras sealed their vows, marking the start of their life together. Their wedding beautifully combined cultures, family, and love, leaving a lasting impression on all.
