Pure Platinum Party provided our award winning wedding entertainment (DJ & percussion) and cinematography services for Tami & Kenny’s fairy tale wedding at The View on the Hudson in Piermont, NY. Tami and Kenny had a beautiful first look at the end of the pier overlooking the hudson river. Following their romantic wedding ceremony, the newlyweds entered the ballroom for the first time as husband and wife to “You and I” by Ricky Blaze; the smile on their faces were absolutely stunning. Family & friends then danced alongside the newlyweds all night long! To see more “real weddings” follow us on Instagram @pureplatinumparty and like us on Facebook.

5 Star Review
“Our day was so magical thanks to Pure Platinum. We used their DJ and videographer. The professionalism of Angel and DJ Adam was immeasurable. They made our day so much fun, and had the dance floor filled the whole night!

And if you decide you want a percussionist at your wedding, Chrystal was phenomenal and had a smile and the energy to light up the whole room!!

I HIGHLY recommend Pure Platinum Party”

If you are attending an Indian wedding this bridal season, take a look at some traditions to expect below.

Jai Mala – This is the part of the ceremony during which the bride and groom exchange floral garlands. This expresses the desire of the couple to marry each other. (brides.com)

The Bride Wears a Red Dress – The bride’s garments will also be red. In Indian culture, red symbolizes the rising sun, prosperity and fertility. (brides.com)

Mehendi Ceremony – Henna is used to apply intricate designs to the bride’s hands and feet. The mehndi ceremony usually takes place one day before the marriage will be held, as the application can take hours. (brides.com)

The Baraat – Groom’s procession. The groom arrives to the ceremony on a decorated white horse. Guests dance around him to the beat of a dhol, an Indian drum. After that, the bride and her family greet the groom, and the couple exchanges floral garlands to wear around their necks to symbolize their acceptance of each other. (theknot.com)

For the ceremony, the priest, groom, bride and bride’s parents sit beneath a mandap, a canopy similar to a Jewish chuppah. The ceremony starts off with the kanya daan, in which the bride’s parents give her away. Then the couple joins hands and circles around a small, enclosed fire (the agni) in a ritual called the mangal phera. (theknot.com)

The Saptapadi – Seven Steps, as they vow to support each other and live happily together. Finally, the groom will apply a red powder to the center of the bride’s forehead and tie a black beaded necklace around her neck, symbolizing she’s now a married woman. (theknot.com)
