So, we have decided to bring you a little more about this fantastic and alluring wedding. Today's journey into this happily ever after the story begins at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. They wanted to get married on the beautiful sandy beach as the waves gently washed ashore, with the Caribbean Sea as the backdrop and soundtrack. This venue takes luxury and love to a new level! The fabulous execution from Pearls Event & Co. created an elegant, romantic, and captivating atmosphere that our couple could not have asked for a more beautiful scenario to declare their love in front of their family and friends. Our lovely Maharani stole all the looks while walking down the aisle in her fascinating lehenga from Shilpa Gandhi Studio. But it was not just the splendid attire that highlighted Anandi's beauty; this traditional and inspiring look that we love would not have been possible without the exceptional work of the incredible Flawless Beauty by Pauline.

Today we are sharing Nikita and Milan's wedding highlight reel. This romantic work of art was captured and produced by the talented Vellora Productions. With impeccable visual storytelling, the cinematographers captured their most special days chronologically. This duo's entire soiree was full of music and merriment and culminated with a beautiful ceremony and reception at the Renaissance Dallas Hotel. Palino Events helped Nikita and Milan helped them tailor and plan the wedding of their dreams. Kudos to the planning team for such incredibly well-executed events. With a long list of events, Maharani Nikita had to search for Red Lotus Artistry to assist her in preparing all her bridal looks! The beauty expert team draped and styled her outfits and created the bridal makeup and hairstyles for all her five functions. I am sure guests were in awe of all her unique looks! Divine Décor of Dallas took care of all decor. Ketan Mistry is amazing at coming up with fresh ideas and really portraying what you want through his work. Nikita says. Their reception had the incredible DJ Riz Entertainment, who made their last function a celebration that everyone will remember for years! They also brought all the way from England a good dose of Barfi Bites by Minesh Patel, especially for the occasion that everyone loved, and made this evening even more special! Scroll down and watch and get inspired by this lovely union through the lens of Vellora Productions. 

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
The better version is on our website!
I met Milan through our multiple family and friends. Someone texted my mum a picture of him, which she sent to me back in Nov 2018, she asked “are you interested he’s 6’3” ?” I immediately said, “finally, someone cute and tall!”
Milan actually ghosted me twice so I was a little apprehensive to speak with him again. About 6 months later, my family and I went to Amarillo, TX to meet my sister's boyfriend's family. We stopped by Milan’s aunt's house (because my parents were friends with them) and they had planned for each of us to be there without us knowing. Milan showed up and I got so nervous. He was cute and very tall. My family left me there to get to know him, and we ended up going to a bar and talking for hours. He then went to drop me off in the Palo Duro Canyon so I could meet up with my family. I figured this would be it. We’re not going to talk after this because I didn’t know if he was interested. But then as we were waiting in the dark for my parents and sister to finish their show. He leaned in for the kiss, it was then, that fireworks from the show started going off. I burst out in laughter. It was so cliche.
We met up in Dallas 3 weeks later and he asked me to be his girlfriend that night. I knew Milan was the one after 2 months of talking, the final test was if Simon (my Goldendoodle) liked him…he passed the test. Milan is so caring and loving and he fits into my family so well. His parents are amazing and he’s my best friend.
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
On our website :)
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.
We started the planning process about a year out (a couple of months after the proposal) I had 3 destinations in mind for my wedding so I started looking up potential venues and interviewing wedding planners. Milan’s best friend from college, Chanel Patel, was a wedding planner so we decided to interview them as well. Palino Events were fairly new at the time but I knew they would understand the aesthetic of what I wanted, we trusted them because Chanel was Milan’s friend and after speaking with them I knew they would advocate for me and Milan when speaking to other vendors and our parents! We all know planning an Indian wedding is 50% for your parents haha. 
The hotel venue we used was Renaissance Dallas Hotel. The staff was kind and attentive, the venue was also beautiful and convenient.
Red Lotus Artistry from Dallas did all of the bride's side HMU and my mothers in law and her sister. Vidya is amazing and so easy to work with. She’s worth it. She provided services for all my bridesmaids and sisters plus my mum and Milan’s mum and aunt which is difficult to find a team large enough do to that. She also draped and did my hair for all events. She really understands your personality and translates that into your looks. I felt comfortable and beautiful for all 5 of my events! We even recently used her again for my sister's wedding in Cancun - in Nov 2022!
All of my outfits except for my wedding outfit were designed and made by KEVIV DESIGNS in Philadelphia! Vivek has so much attention to detail, gets you what you want and is honest about what is in and what looks classic! He helped me pair up my jewelry and style all of my looks! His communication was on point and he was always there for me throughout the entire process! Highly recommend!
Vulcal Orlando designed my wedding lengha and Milan’s outfit. It was amazingly designed and the fit was perfect!
My Decor was designed and displayed by Divine Decor Of Dallas. Ketan Mistry is truly an artist! He pays attention to what the bride wants. Which is so great when planning any wedding. He’s amazing at coming up with fresh ideas and really portraying what you want through his work. He’s a great friend now and I recommend him to everyone that is getting married! I truly was overwhelmed with how slot-on he was with my decor. Couldn’t have found anyone better.
How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I originally wanted a red lengha but my colors were emerald, ivory, and blush pink. I found a design that I fell in love with and added a few touches to it when I showed it to Vulcal we came up with the idea to make the lengha ivory and blush pink/peach!
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
Spending time with my parents and all the excel spreadsheets! I really enjoy planning events and using excel so this was a dream for me! ;)
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
The decor, food, and the venue
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The moment we walked out to the welcome party/Sangeet. It was so overwhelming that I cried happy tears! Just seeing everyone there for us and how beautiful everything turned out was truly so memorable for me.
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Don’t be scared to ask for what you want. Have fun! Don’t stress too much and soak in every moment during that week. Pamper yourself the month of your wedding, if things don’t go as planned it’s OK! everyone will still love it as long as you’re not stressed. Don’t stress too much on the tiny details because people won’t notice. Lol
Anything else you want to tell us? We'd love to hear all about your other details! (jewelry, mehndi, venue, cake, bouquets, etc.)
My bouquet was actually made by my mum with silk flowers because I want to keep it on display in my house. I have my grandmother's broach on there because she wasn’t able to attend my wedding due to COVID travel restrictions from the UK.
Most of my jewelry was from indiatrend.com and I got so many compliments!
My desserts were amazing, we had Barfi Bites flown in all the way from England made by my family friend, Minesh Patel.
We also had all of our cute and tasty desserts at the reception made by Charming Affairs By Noreen in Dallas! They were gone in literally 10 mins or less!

Every wedding is a big event, and no big Indian wedding spree is complete without video proof! Such is the case for Priya and Bhavik's wedding! This traditional Indian bash deserved to be documented by a true wedding film expert. Thankfully, SR Photo Films' style fitted perfectly with the couple's vision. Artfully chronicled, this highlight film unveils this union's candid moments and emotions from start to end. The fabulous Events by Hala crew planned to perfection all the events that started with an exciting Sangeet function at the magnificent Sheraton McKinney. Next in the wedding timeline, the ceremony was an autumnal dream! Our sweet exchanged vows at the enchanting Avalon Legacy Ranch amidst acres of wooded coves and a rustic ambiance. Priya made a statement on her big day with a fabulous bridal ensemble draped and styled by Ms. Painted Lady. Who also glammed up our Maharani with floral hair accessories that added romance to her bridal outfit. Bhavik arrived at the ceremony accompanied by the sounds of DJ Riz Entertainment's dhol drums, who also provided the fantastic music that enlivened the reception! One more time, these lovebirds headed to the Sheraton McKinney for their last function and led the crowd to a great space tastefully decorated by Elegant Affairs. An outfit change or the newlyweds had them ready to dance the night away. Maharani Priya slipped into a light Cyan color gown, and Raja Anish swapped his Sherwani for a sleek black tuxedo. VEK Photo captured and curated all the imagery for this big affair, so don't forget to click through the photography feature we dedicated to these newlyweds. Scroll down and take a sneak peek at this cinematic wedding story right now! 

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
I met Bhavik through a dating app. I knew he was the one after he came to visit me in Dallas at the time from Arkansas. His calm nature and being a secret, silly jokester made me fall for him hard! He just has this ease to him that I absolutely love so much. On the last day before he headed back to Arkansas we laughed so much, I knew I wanted to hold on to those laughs for a lifetime. We ended up doing long distance up until the wedding and while it was tough we managed to make the greatest memories from the moments we were able to see each other. I just knew I didn't want to let this man go.
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
The proposal occurred on May 23rd, 2020. It was the year of covid as everyone knows. I was graduating with my Master's Degree and everything for my school became virtual towards the end of the year. I didn't want to go back to campus for Graduation because it was going to be virtual however my whole family including Bhavik really wanted me to go back. They mentioned it is an opportunity of a lifetime to be back at Grad School and soak in the moments during graduation time on campus. Low and behold I thought I was getting graduation pictures done and got ready to go. The picture session turned into a proposal. Bhavik took me to the Sekrit Theater in Austin and proposed in a remote greenhouse. It was an absolute surprise and beyond beautiful. The local family came and we ended the night with a surprise Zoom call with close family and friends. It was an absolutely magical day and loved everything Bhavik had planned out. After the proposal, my sweet sister and brother-in-law planned a proposal backyard surprise party with friends the next day back at their house. It was amazing!
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.
The overall wedding planning was a whirlwind year due to covid. What made it at ease was our family support and our amazing wedding planner, Hala. She took care of all the details when it came to the final days. All our vendors were absolutely amazing and everything went so smoothly with the agenda we had aligned for the full weekend.
How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
My bridal lengha was a custom lengha I had made from Binari Art in Atlanta. My sister-in-law used her when she got married and loved her work. She had recommended I reach out to her. Ranisha Patel, the founder of Binari, created my vision and did so via Zoom. I didn't even have to go in for a fitting, she made the virtual process so simple and it turned out exactly like the sketches.
My reception outfit was from Studio Dallas, Divya is just a perfectionist, and loved seeing her entire collection. I was able to pick the perfect gown that I was looking for in a color I never thought about.
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
The cake tasting! Due to Bhavik being in medical school and his busy schedule at the time, I ended up going with my Dad. It was such a fun experience to taste different flavors of cake and learn about the baking process. It is a memory I will always cherish!
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
It looked like our guests really enjoyed the reception, the music was fab and it felt like a party that everyone enjoyed! An unforgettable night!
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
A special moment for me was when my nephew and Bhavik's niece walked down the aisle first before the rest of our family members. I will never forget that moment and how special it is to me.
Walking down the aisle for any bride is so beyond special, I was able to walk down the aisle with my Dad which meant so much to me. Seeing Bhavik's smile the whole time during the ceremony and reception melted my heart, love that man so much!
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.
Sangeet we went with hues of yellow, orange, and red. Wanted to keep it vibrant and light with the music. It wasn't too formal and lots of Bollywood dancing!
For the Reception, we wanted to bring the rustic theme indoors with a custom-made wooden stage backdrop that had a hint of Indian flare. The tile was like a piece in the middle, white and green as accent color florals and dimly lit lanterns were all a part of the decor. Loved how that turned out!
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
My words of wisdom - enjoy it as much as possible. I know it can be very stressful but just know it WILL zoom by. Listen to what you and your better half would like and be as organized as you can be! Label everything! And don't forget to enjoy and have fun with all the people that do attend from various walks of both of your lives. It's such a memorable and special weekend for the couple.

Mesmerizing Indian wedding celebrations every day!  Look for more inspiration tomorrow.
