Photographers
The only photographer I follow to date on Instagram is Cupcake Productions. 2 years before the wedding happened, I knew it had to be them. Jayant and Shruti are such stars and their team is great. Jayant on Day 1, when we went to meet them told my father that he would work like an elder brother. The effort they put in is commendable. The input was great but the output was just better than the best. I would recommend them 100 times over.
Venues
Our wedding was in Jaypee Palace Agra. It's a gorgeous property with huge lush green lawns and different locations for different functions. The best thing was we did not have to repeat any venue at the hotel. The manager there Mr. Rohit and FNB manager Mr. Bipin were the ones who made it so easy for us and got well versed with our taste pretty soon.
Wedding Planners
Shanqh Luxury Events - Manvir, Siddhant, Bharti & Deepanshu. Remembering them always brings a smile to my face. Any amount of praise for them would fall less. It's a tough decision to choose your event planners and even more tough to convince your parents that the ones you have chosen are the best because we know how finicky all parents get when their daughter is getting married. Choosing them has been one of the best decisions I took for my wedding. The dedication, energy, and transparency with what they work on are commendable. My parents would often ask them "Do you even sleep?!" They work just like family, make sure you don't take any stress and make it all a cakewalk for you. The way their brain works left me, my brother, and my parents surprised and extremely happy. The wedding was a super hit, major credit goes to them. They just make everything look so easy. Not one but many guests took their contact because not just us but the guests went back super happy too. Anyone looking for wedding planners can choose them blindly and I promise you won't regret it. P.S. - NO doesn't exist in their dictionary.
Bridal Makeup
She is a BRILLIANT make-up artist. Just meeting her made me feel I have taken the right decision. She understood me, my choices, and told me I'd work out as a confident bride. She is one person who communicates, makes you feel so stress-free before your function and her laugh is contagious. Always praising you, always making you feel so good. To date people ask me about my make-up artist, they ask me how my experience with Shagun was, and needless to say, I ask them to go in for her without a second thought.
