Photographers
Recall Pictures did our photos and videos. They were a lot of fun to work with, and delivered everything in a timely and professional manner. We built a wonderful relationship with their team, and they made us feel very comfortable.
Venues
I was researching and discovered that JW Marriott will open a new property in Jaipur – a palatial spa resort with enough rooms to accommodate our 300-odd guests, a grand ballroom for late night parties, a beautiful pool for a sundowner fest, and, above all, the friendliest people behind it. It ticked all our boxes! My father and Ritesh’s brother seamlessly bonded with the owner Mr Mohan Sukhani, who promised us the dream wedding I was hoping for. We were the second family to book the hotel for a wedding prior to its opening, so everything was trust-based. We went with our gut and, in hindsight, it was the best decision.
Wedding Planners
Our planners, Krayonz Events, treated us with the same respect. Our priority was comfort for our guests, so from airport pick-up, to drop-off, the events team nailed it at understanding our wishes. I loved the shadows they provided for us and for our families – we couldn’t have been happier
Decorators
We were very particular with our vision, our budget and the overall feel of this wedding, and knew exactly what we wanted. Dreamzkrraft Decor executed those intricacies efficiently. We had a million ideas and held many meetings in their office, going back and forth until everyone was on the same page.
Invitations
My stationery was made by Resham Moorjani who runs Moor Designs. She's incredibly talented, very creative, and we loved her style
Mehendi Artist
We hired Mayuri Mehendi Artist from Surat for my mehendi. They were a reliable and fuss free team that specialises in images and funky design mehendi.
Groom Wear
Ritesh wore a malhari style bright lemon yellow sherwani that matched mine.
Groom Wear
Ritesh complemented me in an intricate threaded maroon and olive-green sherwani from Shantanu & Nikhil. We have to mention that their Mumbai store team was brilliant and incredibly sweet to work with.
Groom Wear
Ritesh found his perfect wedding outfit at the Mumbai flagship store where the super helpful team styled his ivory and off-white sherwani with a gold saafa and a light pink dupatta
Groom Wear
Ritesh, who never shies away from all things quirky, got in touch with the designer Karrtik D, who created a unique, Bombay-themed tuxedo for him.
Groom Wear
We discussed my Sherri Hill outfit with Troy in Mumbai and had something matching made for Ritesh! For the Reception again, we chose a Troy Costa tux. No one does luxurious tuxedos and suits better than Troy. Ritesh looked dapper in a deep bottle green velvet tux in the last function.
Bridal Wear
I loved Anushka Sharma’s entire Sufi look in the song Channa Mereya from the movie Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and wanted to recreate this in hues of green and gold from Manish Malhotra. The team from their Delhi store was incredibly sweet and very helpful in making sure I attain that look to perfection.
Bridal Wear
I had dreamed of being a Sabya bride for years preceding my wedding, before I had even met Ritesh. I felt like a million bucks in my red-pink intricate lehenga, which I fell in love with at their Mumbai flagship store.
Bridal Wear
I wore a Monisha Jaising saree gown for my After Party. I wanted something different, comfortable, modern and traditional for this function. The saree gown was an unusual but befitting choice. Because we traditionally don't wear all white, I opted to wear a pale pink and silver off-shoulder gown with a long trail and an even longer veil for my reception, by Monisha Jaising again. I felt like a complete princess. I was extremely happy with all my oufits - the fit, the comfort, the whole purchasing experience - everything went perfectly well for me fortunately.
Bridal Wear
I fell in love with the blue and white outfit the minute I saw it online, especially the beautiful balloon skirt. It didn't stop me from going in the pool!
