Indian weddings have many ceremonies and take up to a week to finish all the ceremonies. Nowadays, a new thing which is quite inspired from the western world has become a part of their wedding must-dos. A pre-wedding shoot showcasing the bond and love of the bride and groom has become an essential part of Indian weddings. People fly to different locations, hire professional photographers, costumes, etc., just to get a beautiful photo album before their marriage. They spend hundreds of thousands of rupees for these shoots.
