Welcome!

Austin- Round Rock- Cedar Park- Pfulgerville-Georgetown yes, you have your incredible vistas, and yes you are amongst the fastest growing South Asian communities in the USA.

So, what does that mean, more families, more events and yes more weddings. Desi weddings galore! In the past 3 years, I have witnessed how South Asian weddings have quadrupled in the greater Austin area. A big thank you to the hotels who have realized the presence of desi's in the area and finally allowed outside catering :) Vendor's coming in, setting up service locally- making efforts to come together as a community to help celebrate the true style of Shaadi's in Austin.

This blog is open to all the brides, brides to be and service providers who are associated with Austin and its surrouding areas- So if you got married here, will be married here, planning to get married here, getting a service provider from here (like me) or if you provide services here- come on board! Share your views, experiences, write kuddo's and recommendations and help create a resource that will truly make a difference in wedding planning.

  1. What a great idea Saman! I think South Asian brides definitely need a resource center. You are definitely the best makeup artist for Austin brides...and around the nation :)

  2. It is a holy bond.Be it the simple ceremony in your home or a full blown bollywood style production, it is an important day in a man's and woman's life. Austin desi brides rejoice, here's your starting point!
    I hope this platform opens up channels of communication for all vendors, event coordinators, caterers and families. Austin truly needs this to keep pace with its booming desi population. As a fan of Saman's aesthetic work I have witnessed many gorgeous transformations. She is undoubtedly an artiste extraordinaire, and I am confident that her creativity will continue to delight you in her new venture- Saffron Affairs!
