A beach setup, a bride who wore a gorgeous saree on her wedding, a perfectly coordinated groom, absolutely kickass bridal entry and a decor that was subtle and stunning, this wedding was nothing short of #goals! And the fact that Pukhraj, our bride, did it under a budget, was even more impressive. From the gorgeous venue, Zeebop by the Sea, to the stunning photography by The Picture Patch Photography , we couldn't help but be amazed by everything!
Meet Pukhraj & Iiro
Pukhraj tells us about how they met and how they fell in love, "It is public knowledge that they met on Tinder and as most Tinder stories go, it wasn't meant to be a "serious relationship". When they met, Pukhraj's plan was to go for her study exchange to London for 6 months and move back to India. Though in those few months, Iiro & Pukhraj become inseparable where Iiro would fly to meet her in London and she would do the same to meet him in London. Long story short, she didn't move back to India but went back to Finland to give the relationship an actual chance."

The Wedding
From The Couple:
Iiro, the groom, a lot more relaxed and quieter than the bride is from Finland. However, people saw a fun, party version of him at the wedding! The bride, Pukhraj calls herself "truly Indian" given her family roots lie in Bihar, she herself was born in Chennai, and lived majority of her life in Delhi, Mumbai & Pune! The couple currently lives in Helsinki, the capital of Finland.
The couple choose Goa as their wedding venue for the lovely weather Goa is February has to provide. It was an additional blessing for people from Finland who were coming from minus 15 degrees weather. The wedding was short and sweet, with a focus on spending time and reconnecting with people, rather than on traditions and ceremonies.
