What’s common between a beach , a desert and an adorable love story? Well , all three were present at this wedding ! Shreya & Ashish's wedding in Abu Dhabi had us skimming through images wondering which ones to pick because each function was more stunning than the next. Right from the kitschy mehendi with the bride in a cold shouldered outfit, to the absolutely breathtaking beachside mandap where Shreya walked down the stairs in a beautiful ombré lehenga, you will love all the stunning photos from this warm , beautiful affair . The best part though were the permanent smiles on the bride and grooms face - this just made our Tuesday ! The bride, on her wedding day, wore a multi-hued creation from Ecru by Ankur Batra, while Fairmont Bab - Al Bahr, Abu Dhabi, UAE was the perfect backdrop for this pretty wedding. And photography by Badal Raja Company really showcased this wedding in the sweetest of ways. 

Meet Shreya & Ashish 

Shreya tells us how they met and their love story, "We have one of the most filmy story. My husband is my brothers best friend and business partner. They studied at university together in Boston and were flat mates then, and are business partners now. We were friends for a long time through my brother and I loved being in Ashish’s company . He’s sweet, funny and oh he makes me laugh the whole time and pulls my leg all through out the day but I guess I love it. When we both realised we liked each other, Ashish spoke to my brother if he could date me and my brother went ahead to say “ if you’re serious we have a lot to gain and if you’re not we have more to lose”! We dated for 2 years before we got married in Nov 2018."

From The Bride: 

"We had about 1 year to plan our wedding and both the families wanted a destination wedding. The only vision I had was that I wanted it to be a warm wedding where everyone from the grooms' and brides' side was enjoying with each other! From family, to close friends to everyone who was close to our families, should feel equally important and enjoy each function like its their own. Our parents had thought through each and everything to make sure everything was well planned and fun!"

Muah by Sakshi Sood, she did the make up for me for all my Delhi functions and also my mehendi and I don't think I couldn't have asked for a better person. She made me look beautiful and understood my need for the minimalist make up. She is phenomenal and I can't thank her enough. She also did the make up for my mother on all the wedding functions and she made her look absolutely GORGEOUS!!!! Namrata Soni, words are not enough to say how thankful I am for letting her do my make up for the wedding. She is the best and the most humble person. My wedding wouldn’t have been the same if she wouldn’t have been there! THE BEST!!! Badal Raja, AMAZINGGG team and both Badal and Raja are so loving and hardworking. They made sure we were shown the trailers of every function the morning we woke up, they have captured our wedding memories beautifully. Aura by Gautam Vedi, their hard work, patience , creativity and most of all understanding of our taste was something that made our wedding what it was. Absolutely incredible job. The decor was absolutely breathtaking. Tamarind Global were the main point of contact for every vendor and guest involved in our wedding. They made such a huge task of coordination so easy and hassle free for us as a family. The wedding wouldn’t have been as dreamy without their hard work. I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better person or team. 3 reasons why I would recommend them is the guest management,hospitality and logistics. KAmberly Weddingswere helping us through everything, if it wasn't for Jyotishreya and Sneha I wouldn’t have been the happy bride I was. They helped me through everything and became a part of my family. I can go on and on writing good things about them but if there is one thing I would say about them is they helped me like I was their younger sister.
