Sheekha + Abbas

Canyon Point, Utah

Echoes of Amangiri 

June 2015

The cast of characters were straight out of a fairytale. A stylish bride and groom, the most spectacular desert canyon of the United States and here we are, transported in this dream elopement of bride Sheekha and groom Abbas from Dallas, Texas. Sheekha tied the knot with Abbas in a traditional style but for her elopement shoot, she picked the surreal desert, in what is the most enigmatic landscape of Utah. The secluded feel and desert vibes combined with a dramatic sunset played testimonial to this couple’s love story and their personal expression of fashion. Home grown designers Raw Mango and Gaurav Gupta collaborated with Bridelan on dressing this dream-come-true bride. The results are nothing short of magic. There is harmony in design and style of this shoot and the photos let the breathtaking landscape play the ultimate protagonist.

“Raat yun dil mein teri khoyi hui yaad aayi
Jaise veerane mein chupke se bahaar aajaaye
Jaise sehraaon mein haule se chale baad-e-naseem
Jaise beemaar ko bewajah qaraar aa jaaye”
