First Dance at Eclectic Wedding

"We infused our culture through the music and clothing. The DJ played a selection of hand-picked Nigerian and Indian songs, as well as contemporary American music," Aparna says. "As custom, the ladies in the groom's family wore traditional Nigerian clothing of various styles, custom-made using material in the same color."
