Dhwani, like any other bride, wanted to wear her drema bridal lehenga - a Sabyasachi! However, she wanted to do it sustainabily so she found a brilliant solution. Instead of buying a new one, she instead got one that was on resale. This way, she got to wear her dream outfit but also did it in a conscious manner! Dhwani not only wore her dream designer, but looked fabulous as ever. The couple's intimate wedding celebrations were attended by their closest of friends and family and we saw the couple have a blast! Capturing their candid, fun moments was the expert team of Happyframes , that managed to shoot not only the festivities, but also their love.
Meet Dhwani & Ammar
So both of us are doctors and we met while working at Nanavati hospital. We were unaware of each other’s presence for almost a year till a common friend introduced us. We didn’t make much of it initially but got along only once our future career paths crossed. Then there was no stopping. We had an insanely crazy chemistry and fell for each other head over heels. He is a bohri Muslim by birth but an atheist by practise and I’m a Hindu and fairly religious. We thought we would never be able to make it, but love made it happen. We confided in our parents a month after we started seeing each other. They couldn’t wait nor could we and we got engaged within a month and have been living together ever since.
The Wedding
From The Bride:
Our wedding was all about us. It was a budget wedding but with no compromise. We worked hard to research and figure out how to fulfil our dreams.We wanted a sunset wedding with a backdrop of the beach and the ocean and the cool December breeze. The wedding was just a way for us to celebrate our love.

We came to know of them through a relative and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. Thoroughly professional but extremely warm-hearted. Your wish will be their command.

I have to take a moment to thank this store for making my lifelong dream of wearing a sabyasachi lehenga come true. They were so helpful through the process, giving me trials and options. Miracles do happen and I happened to witness one when I walked down the aisle wearing my dream.
