Good morning, beautiful Maharanis! We are excited to be back as we were dying to share today's lovely story with you. So, let's not wait any longer and take a look at Ancy & Pradhip's big wedding bash. And we hope you have your travel documents handy because we are taking you to Pondicherry for you to be part of this grand event. Today's lovely couple planned a magnificent celebration which started with a traditional Hindu ceremony, followed by a signature on the livre encrypted in Francaise, and finally a Christian ring ceremony with a prayer. How amazing is that! We love how each event honored the bride and groom's culture, faith, and above all, their love for each other! And we know that planning a wedding ceremony is not easy, let alone plan a whole multicultural wedding bash! So we want to make a big shoutout to the bride and groom for the perfect planning and execution of all wedding events. The attention to detail resulted in a dreamy celebration that exceeded all expectations. Both Ancy & Pradhip attended their wedding festivities looking flawless and overflowing with so much happiness and joy that you can almost feel how all these emotions pop from the screen and brighten up your day. For the Hindu ceremony, they embraced a traditional look and ended up looking like the prince and princess of an Indian fairytale. Ancy trusted her beauty needs to Makeup Sharath Bhushan, and Sruthi Kannath and Moksha designed her wedding attires. To crown her ravishing looks, Ancy wore dazzling pieces of jewelry from New Ideas Fashions Jewellery's collection, which added an extra touch of traditional flair to her different attires. And oh, boy! We cannot stress how much we loved her different looks! To match the beauty of the love of his life, Pradhip rocked an all-white attire for the ceremony and an elegant and fashionable tux from P N RAO for the closing gala. They looked so gorgeous together than not even the colorful decor, and the mesmerizing wall of flowers that served as a backdrop for their reception stole the attention away from them!

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
Every human will have a certain deep point in life where that person would feel difficult to get up from the pit. Arm rendered by MR. Mine as a friend during those phase.
 
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
A very different story, both are ardent foot ball fans of same club. It all started with “Arsenal” and we end up hitching our life time goal... Different religion, different culture, different time zone but that never matters when souls are united.
 
Tell us how you went about planning your wedding, and your overall experience with the Venues, Hair & Makeup, Outfits, Decor Theme, and all of the other important details.
Different tone zone one in EST and the other in MYT. We spent our day and night together planning every stuff. We collected many many details regarding venue, makeup artist, place of stay, back drop designs, wedding clothes and ended up choosing our favourite by contacting them. And met everyone in person when in India and finalised
 
How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I fixed my mind to go for pastels. I choose one of the best shops in Chennai where every piece is unique. When it is for our Christian wedding I always wanted to see myself in a gown so grabbed a deep red gown.
 
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
We reached the venue few hours before our wedding and as it was an inter religion wedding our parents of both the sides and relatives anew arguing even at that point in time about giving away my traditional saree... one saying bride should step into their home and get it and the other saying as per our tradition we won’t allow... Every moment was full of suspenses and surprises
 
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
1. We made our bridal blouse very unique - My father’s signature is embedded in it who is no more. It was a themed blouse. Bride In a chariot and groom in a horse. Where my father’s signature as an attestation below the chariot carrying his daughter.
 
2. Back drop was appreciated my many
 
3. Our post-wedding photoshoot
 
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
1. Being a Christian I dint know what exactly they are asking me do when pandit requested. Every moment was very funny.. He was literally snatching the wedlock from the priest's hand and tied in few seconds. It grabbed crowd’s attention and all started laughing  seeing the scene.
 
2. During Christian tradition of ring exchange, we had a ball dance which was a ever memorable one
 
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Stay happy and dream well about your d day which would make you glow like a maharani...

That is all for today, darlings! Make sure to join us tomorrow for more. Same place, same time!

So, get your passport and your luggage ready and join us at this real-life fairytale that will brighten up your day and melt your heart.

The talented team from Colors - A Wedding Design Company made the most of the incredible backdrop of the wedding venue and executed an event for the ages! The ceremony was a luxurious affair in soft pasteli hues that we can't stop seeing. The scenery was so beautiful and enchanting that it seemed almost surreal. It may easily have been the recreation of an Indian fairy tale brought to real life. The grandeur of the occasion is reflected in Gurpreet's elegant and fashionable attire designed by all-famous Rimple & Harpreet Narula. Our blushing Maharani was a vision of beauty in her soft-colored lengha adorned with gorgeous embroider that made her look like a princess. Ruchi Arya and Shradha Luthra complemented this head-turning look with a classy hairstyle and nude makeup that got us sighing. The icing on the cake was the fabulous Mehndi designed by Pramod Mehandi Art and the exquisite pieces of jewelry from Jagdish Jewellers' bridal collection! Waiting for her under the Mandap, Shivraj looked handsome on his soft-colored Sherwani designed by Sabyasachi Mukherjee. And we love how the couple's outfits matched and created a beautiful contrast. Without any question, this was the dreamy ceremony that these two lovebirds always wanted. They brought the wedding festivities to an end with a lovely reception party where everyone had a great time. Hands down, a magical ending to an incredible day of love and flair!

Jaipur, India Indian Wedding by Twogether Studios

Happy Thursday, Maharanis! We hope you are ready for an adventure because we are taking you on a visual journey to Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, to enjoy all the beauty and amazingness that surrounded Anoushka & Sagar's 2-day wedding celebration. If you've been following us for quite a while, you know that we have a special place in our hearts for weddings in India as there is nothing quite as heart-warming than seeing a love story come to life in the very same place where our dearest traditions started. So, you can imagine how thrilled we were when this ode to love and extravaganza came into our editorial desks! And we were dying to share it with you. So, let's start this journey by heading to the Jaipur Marriott Hotel, the place chosen by our lovebirds to host all pre-wedding events as well as the outdoor ceremony. And oh boy, this venue was the perfect place for Anoushka & Sagar to start their everlasting married life. There was so much beauty, traditional flair and love overflowing from the ceremony, that anywhere you looked, perfection was written all over the place. It was the same perfection and beauty that we found in our gorgeous Maharani Anoushka, who walked down the aisle dressed in a fashionable lengha designed by Manish Malhotra and rocking a glamorous makeup and sleek hairstyle created by Saniya Shahdadpuri. After the ceremony, all guests joined the newlyweds at the Taj Land - Mumbai to celebrate their life milestone with an epic reception party! This closing gala had such a personal and unique touch to it, as Anoushka's father recited a beautifully written poem for his daughter while Sagar's Mom sang a lovely melody for the newly married couple. And we can't stop thinking of how lucky these two are for having such great friends and a beautiful family that loves them so much! In between all the dancing, the emotional speeches, and the delicious food, the night got to an end. But we don't want to go without giving a huge shoutout to the talented team from All That Jazz, who were major contributors in making this wedding celebration as epic as it was. They did not only rendered their services as a travel concierge and wedding planner, but they designed the entire wedding affair and took care of the lighting and catering as well! So big kudos to them! If you want to check more of this celebration, don't miss this breathtaking gallery, and the cinematographic delight featured in today's Video Blog.

Serbia, Turkey & India Indian Fusion Wedding by CineLove

Happy Monday, beauty queens! A full weekend without your company feels like an eternity, but we are so excited to be back so we can continue sharing our passion for fantastic wedding celebrations! And today's featured wedding is nothing less than spectacular. It is so unique and filled with surprises that we can firmly say that this is unlike any other wedding that we have witnessed in quite a while. For starters, Bobana & Ansh's fairytale had three different destinations: Serbia, Turkey, and India. How amazing is that! Every event of this wedding was mesmerizing as breathtaking, and we find ourselves lost of words to describe the jaw-dropping attires and the swoon-worthy set-ups conceptualized and styled by none other than Meha Bhargava of Styl.Inc. The celebrations started with a heavenly Christian ceremony in Belgrade Serbia, which is Bobana's hometown. And oh boy, this opening ceremony was to die for! From the captivating decor crafted by Svadbena zvona to the ravishing look of our gorgeous couple, everything was amazing! The festivities continued in Antalya, Turkey, where they had a 3-day long, Indian wedding. A colorful Haldi, a fun-loving Mehndi, and a vibrant Sangeet were just the preamble for the full-traditional Indian wedding ceremony held at the Titanic Mardan Palace. This paradisiacal venue, which combines traditional architecture and a soothing natural environment, added an extra touch of uniqueness to this event, becoming the perfect backdrop for these lovebirds to profess their love and commitment to each other. The wedding festivities concluded with an unforgettable reception held at the Mor Bagh - New Delhi, where All in Organization & Events took care of the decor, and Manish Puri enlivened every moment with upbeat melodies. Hands down, Bobana & Ansh's had the wedding of their dreams! And this could not have been possible without a highly talented and experienced team like the one Bobana & Ansh's had by their side. So big kudos to Chapter 2 Events for the on-point planning and execution, Anjie Gogna for the ravishing look created for our gorgeous Maharani and CineLove for the marvelous shots that made this feature possible! Visit today's gallery for a full revel of this wedding!

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
I was visiting family in London England, and took a day to wonder the city. I got lost at the train station trying to find my platform, bumped into Priyank(groom) asked him for directions. He walked me to the platform and asked me for my number. I denied it and gave him my Instagram. He slid into my DM’s and we began chatting. He flew to Toronto to see me about 3 months later to see if this would work, about the 4th day into his visit I just knew this was it.
 
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
We took a trip to italy. We spent 10 days wandering different parts. He waiting u too the last day of our trip. We were in Venice, he proposed on a gondola ride. It was magical.
 
Tell us how you went about planning your wedding, and your overall experience with the Venues, Hair & Makeup, Outfits, Decor Theme, and all of the other important details.
I knew I wanted Shimmer Studios for my makeup, as I’ve had her doll me up for my sisters wedding. No one else came to mind. Henna by Divya is an amazing henna artist and ever since I discovered her I knew when I got married she’d be the one. I almost didn’t recognize myself I looked so good . My henna was everything I dreamed of, the colour was dark, the design was everything I wanted. Both artist out did my expectations.
 
The resort i has only seen through pictures, I was a little nervous about how everything would turn out. My wedding planner from the resort  was amazing, when we got there she toured us around all the venues and asked us if we were satisfied. The decor I chose I just sent pictures of ideas but they put did themselves. Everything was exactly how I wanted and more.
 
How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I knew I didn’t want to go tradition red and gold, when I went to Mumbai to do my shopping i saw it in the 2nd store I went into and just knew that it was the one.
 
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
Most enjoyable part was planning the reception and the dances.
 
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
The vibe at the resort was amazing. Everyone from both sides got along well. The food was great. There was never a dull moment, everyone’s needs were catered to. One thing we did that everyone appreciated was incorporate Everyone into all of the events so everyone had a part in the wedding.
 
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The reception would be my most memorable moment, after the reception everyone jumped off the balcony into the pool.
 
For events other than your ceremony, please tell us as much as you would like about the decor, style, dances, and all the special details.
The Decor at the reception was Gorgeous! I knew from the pictures that it would be nice but seeing it in person even I was in awe of it. The dances at the reception were amazing. The entire wedding party did a surprise dance for myself and the groom, I watch that video almost everyday. My sister and brother in-law did a story line dance that outlined our entire relationship and it was amazing.
 
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Don’t set expectations. It’ll set you up for disappointment. Plan everything with a cool and calm mind, and trust your instincts. Enjoy EVERY moment because it goes by so quickly.
 
That is all for today, darlings! Have a great weekend full of love and inspiring ideas, and don't forget to join us on Monday for more!
