When a couple has been dating for close to a decade, then you can expect them to literally grow up together through different phases of life. Srishti and Nikhil is one such couple who gave a glimpse of their shared memories. We loved the idea of adding nostalgic tricks and treats in their mehendi, and their wedding was a pure celebration of love, curated painstakingly by the couple. The bride's sartorial choices were rather lovely too, especially the elegant peach lehenga she wore on her wedding day.
Meet Srishti and Nikhil
Destiny first introduced me to Nikhil amidst the creative corridors of our design college over 8 years ago.. From the first brushstroke of friendship to the masterpiece of love we've crafted together, every moment has been of pure joy.

It was a day where our vision came to life, where every detail spoke volumes about our journey together and our love.
