Photographers
Super friendly and amazingly talented group. They took some of the amazing candid pictured of our wedding. The wedding video looks nothing short of a feature film. We never realized when they came so close to take some of the video shots as they were very seamless in their work, without interrupting the wedding and blocking the view for the guests. We could not have been more happier with our choice in the photographers! They are truly the best team to work with!
Venues
This place had all the charm of a south Indian wedding venue without being enclosed between 4 walls. The old vintage beautifully decorated villa, the stone mandap and the pond - all made it the perfect wedding venue that would incorporate the beauty of old world, vintage style wedding. The folks managing the venue also are very helpful and very good at their job.
Decorators
I met with the decorator who is the in-house decorator for Tamarind Tree and I told him each and every detail of decorations that I wanted on each and every pillar, corner, mantap, entryway. He understood everything I envisioned and he was so meticulous in bringing it to life - and I could not have had it any other way. He and his team were on point with each and every detail and were amazing!
Bridal Makeup
I wanted a simple & natural look - and who else better to do this than Ralph! He was amazing - from the time I first met him and told him what I envisioned my look to be, to discussing every little detail with me and to executing it perfectly - he was perfect! He did such a flawless and natural make up and his hair style was truly magical giving me the look exactly how I wanted! I can't tell you how many compliments the make up and hair style got and all this is thanks to his magical and perfect work!
Invitations
She helped design the most quirky personalized invitation for us! I worked with her over a period of 3 months and she was so good at discussing all the ideas and would not settle until I was happy with the outcome - she was a delight to work with!
Bridal Wear
I worked with Pastels and Pop, who are one of the top designers for juttis in India, to get my mehendi outfit. I wanted the outfit to be playful and bright, yet comfortable! The team at Pastels and Pop designed a gorgeous pink palazzo pants with an embroidered crop top which I wore with kundan jewelry.
Bridal Wear
I wore a lehenga by Jayanti Reddy - I ordered this lehenga from a store here in California called The Grand Trunk - who are the official retailers for the designers such as Sabyasachi, Anushree Reddy, Jayanti Reddy, Anamika Khanna, to name a few. They were very professional and helped with everything from the ordering to the delivery and fitting. For all the brides in California , I would totally recommend them! Now for Jayanti Reddy - she has such a gorgeous collection of Lehengas in the most beautiful colors. The moment I saw her signature purple colored lehenga - I was head over heals for it. I contacted Jayanti Reddy herself and she was super helpful even thru whats-app. She was able to suggest and help me make some minor changes with regards to the style of the blouse. She was very approachable and very easy to work with and also hear team works super well with Grand Trunk which made things so easy for me! Her lehengas are super comfortable and so well designed that I am so glad I picked her for my wedding lehenga outfit! I accompanied this with diamond jewelry - necklace , earings and bangles that we got made specifically for this night.
Bridal Wear
I wore a traditional kancheevaram saree - in a beautiful pink color. This was the color i always wanted to wear and I was lucky when my mom found the exact color I was looking for in Vijayalakshmi Silks in Bangalore. This store has some amazing collections of wedding sarees!
