Minimalistic Modern Beach Wedding With A Bride Who's Like A Breath Of Fresh Air!

We definitely love a bride who tries something different at her wedding, and real bride Rukmini blew our minds with her bridal look. It was minimal, it was beautiful and so modern- yet had an unmatched elegance about it. She paired a lovely simple floral print Sabyasachi saree with traditional jewellery and a long, custom-made personalised veil, and this paired with the perfect setting of a beach in Thailand made it a very dreamy affair! Loved the modern gorgeous decor with the giant florals, and the whole vibe of the wedding and every function in it- lots of ideas and inspiration in this one guys!

Also loved the dedication and the chair the bride reserved for her late father, something that's definitely a very special idea.

"We met on a dating app, on our first date we realised that we had briefly met in a club some 12 odd years ago!", the bride tells us.

Reception

From The Bride:

Our wedding took place on December 9, 2022. We went for a modern minimalistic mood-board. Our wedding was a mix of some old traditions and some new. We wanted to make the affair super detailed and personalised, so the wedding functions had tons of tiny personal details. For starters we had a very detailed wedding itinerary that had a crossword puzzle about the bride and groom, we also had customised goodie bags and match boxes for our guests. We customised our napkins for the Mehendi with fun facts about us. I walked on a song which was prerecorded before the wedding which sung by my mother and played by my fiancé. My veil was customised with a promise we made to each other before we started our next phase of our lives. Lastly for my reception I wore my moms wedding out that I upcycled for my special day. We also had a chair reserved for my father who was watching over us from heaven.
