We can never get enough of culture here at Munaluchi, and this Indian and Nigerian multicultural wedding in Jamaica is filled to the brim with it. The bride and groom met during medical school in Chicago during an OB rotation. And their proposal was so romantic – Jude proposed on a flight to Miami…30,000 feet in the air! He had the captian announce for Sharan to stand, then then he proposed. So sweet.
For their rich cultural July 2011 wedding, a destination was the best option since families would be flying in from all across the globe – Sharan is of East Indian heritage, and Jude of Nigerian heritage. Enjoy this cultural expression of love with gorgeous images thanks to Rebecca of Studio b Photography.
From the bride…
We come from two rich cultural backgrounds, East Indian for me and Nigerian for my husband. We have family spread out all over the world and decided the best way to get everyone together and have fun was a destination wedding. We had 3 separate ceremonies- the traditional Sikh Anand Karaj, the Nigerian traditional wedding and then the christian ceremony.
The planning was a fun experience, and having a destination wedding makes things easier. There was an onsite wedding planner that helped with most arrangements. Family and friends helped immensely with a lot of the traditional details.

Hi how are you
Absolutely breath taking :)
Indian-Nigerian Multicultural Wedding Gorgeousness!!!! http://t.co/4pI6gDF87h
Beautiful indeed. I do wish the bride was more specific. There is no “traditional Nigerian wedding”, as each ethnic group does something different. This should be updated.

One of the most beautiful weddings I’ve seen! Best wishes to the newlyweds!
l love this, very colourful.Love really have no boundary or colour. LOVELY.
Wow!!!! Everything about this multicultural blend wedding is amazing. And they were each able to wear three gorgeous outfits! Love it. That shot of the couple in Nigerian garb on the beach is breathtaking.
So beautifully full of culture and color! Each ceremony looks unique and gorgeous!
I also love the merging of two cultures and celebrating their culture & love story. Sharan and Jude looked absolutely stunning in their colorful attire. Props to all the vendors for the beautifully planned wedding
Simply Beautiful..I like how the two cultures are blended together..world peace! Congratulations to the couple.
this is beautiful. i know that many(BUT NOT ALL) east indians DONT want their daughters to marry an African nor AfricanAmerican. Did Jude being a Dr make it ok?
Sharan is Sihk, but they had Xtian ceremony too.
What TYPE of trsditional Naija wedding was it as yoruba, ibo, hausa, fulani, ibibio, efik all have their own traditional weddings.
Nice combination of cultural………..I also like your pics……… Aanchal Saree House is an famous online store in the global world. It offers designer sarees,Indian wedding dresses,salwar kameez & other women accessories etc.
This is beautiful. I will be planning my wedding soon asa well with my Nigerian man. Such an inspiration
India and Nigeria wedding a new nice culture
I AM VERY SAD FOR PARENT BRIDE!
Why should you be sad for them?They may be happy with it,its better for you to face your own threats not of others.
