South Asian Wedding Reception at Berber Social

I was invited to a South Asian wedding reception recently at BerBer Social in the heart of downtown Toronto. There was an open bar, multiple speeches, a Bollywood dance performance, Belly Dancing and delicious cuisine. What I found interesting was that the wedding ceremony and reception actually took place on two different days. 

I took photos with the Canon SL1 with a 24-60mm f 2.8 lens and I loved  the effect and bokeh produced by this lens! 

Outfit 

I borrowed a pink backless, flowly dress for the evening from my cousin Lynne. I loved the bow at the back. I attempted to recreate this hair look I found from Pinterest but I had a really had a hard time.
