Vibrant & Colorful Wedding in Jaipur
BY The WMG Bride | 15 Jul, 2016 | 2875 views | 3 min read
Our favourite thing about this wedding have to be the turquoise invites. Designed by the bride herself, we love the splash of color and the birdcage motif ! Add to that a beautiful heritage property in Jaipur (one we hadn't even heard of before), and you have all the trappings of a palace wedding shot by Sunanda Agarwal Photography.
From the couple : Coming from a rajput family we were always told to live in a sense of pride remembering the history of our ancestors. I feel every girl hearing such stories feels somewhere in her subconscious that she is a princess. It was the same for me and as a child from a small town I would envision my wedding in a palace, running around the corridors all decked up .
With North Indian weddings being larger than life our parents wanted a grand affair where as we wanted a small gathering to receive blessings of our loved ones and not get stressed in the whole pomp and show for the society. After a lot of venue search and chaos in our hometowns Apourv came up with the plan that was just brilliant. He was adamant on having a wedding like the royals. To have a palace wedding just solved the purpose for all of us, it was grand with a limited gathering. It took a lot of convincing for our parent to agree as it was the first destination wedding in both the families but it worked out. Apourv was specific that the venue should be a heritage property and easily accessible to people so after visiting almost every possible property in Jaipur we landed up at The Raj Palace, a 300 hundred yr old property that was built before the pink city came into existence. The rest of it was just magical like a fairytale that I used to live in as a little girl.

Meet Shambhavi & Apoorva
When someone asks us how did you guys meet I start and the immediate reaction would be OMG! This is like the movie SOCHA NA THA .. It was quite similar our parents introduced us but we had no intentions of getting married. We soon became friends and little did we realise we became so close that there was not one moment we were apart even if he was in Madrid and I was in Mumbai. The friendship just grew stronger over the years and I didn’t even realise when it turned into love. There was no defining moment for us to propose or express our love for each other we just knew we belonged together.Mehendi & Sangeet
