Once upon a time, in the vibrant swirl of lights and music at a Garba celebration in 2015, Krupa's eyes met Neel's across the dance floor. Little did they know that this chance meeting would ignite a love story filled with countless dates and adventures over the next few years. With each passing day, their connection deepened, and their bond grew stronger until Krupa knew in her heart that Neel was "the one."

Their journey reached a pinnacle on a serene morning in Aruba, a paradise where love blossomed under the Caribbean sun. Neel orchestrated a proposal straight out of a fairy tale. A secluded beach, a tipi adorned with love and care, and a picnic spread fit for royalty awaited them. As they sat together, surrounded by the whisper of palm trees and the melody of soft music, Neel took a nervous yet determined breath and knelt before Krupa, presenting a velvet box that promised forever. With tears of joy streaming down her cheeks, Krupa eagerly nodded as Neel slipped a sparkling ring onto her finger, sealing their love in that perfect moment captured forever by a discreet photographer.

Their wedding planning took them to India, where Krupa found her dream lehenga—the "French Rose Tales of Masai Lehenga" from Matsya World. It was a masterpiece adorned with Suchi Dori, Zardozi, and delicate Jaipuri mirrors, reflecting her elegance and modern bride spirit. The veil, a delicate finishing touch, seamlessly tied together tradition and contemporary style, embodying Krupa's vision of bridal perfection.

As a meticulous planner and lover of all things floral, Krupa poured her heart into creating a destination wedding to enchant their guests. Every detail reflected their love story, from elaborate floral arrangements to carefully curated decor. The beauty and romance of the occasion swept away their guests, but one moment stood out above the rest for Krupa & Neel.

Walking down the aisle as husband and wife, surrounded by the love and support of their closest friends and family, was forever etched in their hearts. As they took each step together, they reflected on their journey—filled with Garba dances, Aruba sunsets, and the promise of a future intertwined in love.

And so, Krupa & Neel's love story continues, each chapter more beautiful than the last, as they embrace the adventures of married life with hearts full of gratitude and love.

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
We met each other at Garba in 2015.  What ensued was a series of countless dates and adventures over the next couple years.

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
Neel had planned the beautiful proposal during our vacation in Aruba. The morning began with a surprise— a picnic on a secluded beach, its shores kissed by gentle waves and framed by swaying palm trees. As we arrived, I was struck by the sight of a beautifully adorned tipi nestled among the palms. Inside, a picnic spread awaited us, filled with my favorite treats and a bottle of champagne chilling in a bucket of ice while Soft music filled the air. We spent time reminiscing about our six-year journey together in that serene setting.

Then, with a nervous yet determined smile, Neel knelt before me, holding a small velvet box that sparkled in the sunlight. Time seemed to stand still as he asked me, "Will you marry me?"

Overwhelmed with joy and tears welling up, I eagerly nodded. Neel slipped the ring onto my finger, and we embraced tightly, the world around us fading into the background as we savored the beautiful moment.

Neel had also arranged for a photographer to discreetly capture these memories. The soft clicks of the camera blended with the gentle music, capturing forever the beauty and deep emotions of that perfect day in Aruba.

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
One thing I was absolutely certain about was that I wanted a pastel-colored lehenga. During our trip to India for wedding shopping, we visited numerous stores and designers, but nothing seemed quite right. It wasn't until we reached the last store that they presented the lehenga, and I instantly knew it was perfect.
My wedding lehenga, from Matsya World, is called "The French Rose Tales of Masai Lehenga." It encompassed everything I had dreamed of in a lehenga—the artistry and craftsmanship with Suchi Dori, Zardozi, and delicate Jaipuri mirrors. It was an eternal statement of elegance. My favorite aspect of the lehenga was its veil, which beautifully tied together the entire ensemble, blending tradition with contemporary style and giving the modern bride look.

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
Planning a destination wedding limited our options, but as a Type A bride, I relished planning every detail myself. Despite the stress, envisioning the decor was both challenging and enjoyable. With a deep love for all kinds of flowers, I was adamant about having abundant floral arrangements for each wedding event. Creating mood boards and meticulously planning the floral decor for each occasion became a passion project. After several Zoom meetings and adjustments, our vendors successfully brought my vision to life.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
There were countless moments that I still replay in my mind, but the most cherished of all was walking down the aisle as a married couple. At that moment, we could only feel the overwhelming love and reflect on our journey together thus far, as well as the new chapter we were embarking upon.

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
We met through our parents after they saw we weren't having much luck on our own. My medical school roommate also went to college with Shantan and put in a good word for him. I took the initiative and reached out to Shantan, and he texted me back right away. I found so many similarities between us during our first text conversation that I thought he might be "the one" even before we met in person! It was love at first text!

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
We got engaged within a year of meeting. I had told him we didn't have many pictures together, so he said we could dress up one day and take photos at sunrise. I was suspicious that it could be a proposal, but the day before it looked like he hadn't put much thought into it because I suggested a park we could go to, and he instantly agreed. The next morning, we went to Herman Park and tried to find someone to take a photo of us, but the joggers weren't particularly happy to stop for us. Just when I said we should leave, I saw the setup for the proposal, and soon after, our families both joined us for a photoshoot! It was just a coincidence that the park I suggested was the one he had planned on.

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 reached out to my friends who got married in the New Jersey area for vendor contacts since my wedding was in Philly. Our venue, the Loews Hotel, also gave us some contacts for whom they worked in the past. Abhishek decorators just have so much experience in the field that we gave them some photos of what we wanted, and they helped embellish each event into something more beautiful than we had imagined! Our "day-of" event planner, Posh Kreations, made sure that everything ran smoothly and helped us come up with a timeline two months before the wedding. We had a few events at my house, but the sangeet, baraat, wedding, and reception were all at the Loews Hotel Philadelphia. Our venue was perfect to hold about 400 people for each of the events!

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
Since I had to plan my wedding during residency training, I didn't have time to go to India, so my mom and mother-in-law just FaceTimed me before they bought my wedding saris in Kanchi. I ordered my reception lehenga from Seema Gujral online, and it fit perfectly!

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
I enjoyed how all my family came together and got really hyped before the wedding! Wedding planning was a long process, but it was all worth it!

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
The food and DJ were a big hit! We were lucky to have Southern Spice from NJ cater all our events. The baraat outside City Hall in Philly was also quite memorable as it was a gorgeous day outside.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
I remember my dad coming into my hotel room to practice our father-daughter dance right before the reception and how ready he was to dance in front of hundreds of people for the first time in his life!

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.
We worked with a choreographer from India who held dance practices over Zoom for a few weeks leading up to the wedding.

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
It's nice to have a few things that you are particular about, but be as flexible as possible so you don't stress about all the details and enjoy the process more!

This wedding was a mesmerizing fusion of Indian traditions and modern elegance.

Komal shone brilliantly, her laughter harmonizing with the festive ambiance.

It  was not merely a celebration but the beginning of a new, enchanting chapter in their love story.

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
Jagraj and I met on Tinder; however, we were mutual friends, which helped me decide to meet up with him. We met for sushi and drinks on a casual Saturday night. What was meant to be a two-hour date turned into five hours as we went to the bars around town. We hung out every week until I had to leave for my study abroad program. We talked on the phone every day, waiting to see each other again. I returned a month later, and he asked me to be his girlfriend. I knew he was the one because we had been inseparable since.

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
My best friend Alaina said she wanted to go out for drinks before my date night with Jagraj. I agreed, and she drove me to a cute Christmas bar in the city called Urban Roast. The place was decorated so beautifully with Christmas lights, decorations, Christmas trees, and a sign that said, "Kiss me under the mistletoe." As I walked in, I saw all of my best friends and his best friends holding roses. It took me a second to understand what was going on, but I caught on. Alaina proceeded to tell me something he loved about me, and then each one of our friends handed me a rose and also stated what he loved about me. They were all standing in a line, and as I walked by, I saw a giant "MARRY ME" sign with Jagraj standing with a bouquet of flowers for me. Jagraj takes my hand and says some sweet words to me, then gets down on one knee and proposes to me! He later takes me for dinner to a Lebanese restaurant called Ilili.

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.
When it came to planning our wedding, we decided to take a trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico, to check out our potential resorts. We chose the Riviera Maya area to have our wedding, as it holds a special place in my and Jagraj's hearts. That was our first vacation together two years prior, and that is when I knew he was my soulmate.
We worked with Ateet Ahuja from Indian Destination Wedding, Inc. to plan all of this. We had four resorts in mind which would accommodate our number of guests. We selected Generations/El Dorado Royale due to its beautiful tropical scenery and its closeness to the town of Playa del Carmen - mine and Jagraj's favorite town in the Riviera Maya region.
Our overall experience with the venue and vendors was quick, efficient, and flexible; although there were a few hiccups along the way, we had the mindset of "we can't control everything," so it did not stress us out much. We looked at everything from the bigger picture. I found wedding planning to be more fun rather than stressful - as the resort handled everything in-house. I am grateful to the team at Generations/El Dorado Royale for executing our vision well.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
I believe one of the things our guests loved about our wedding was that it felt like a giant rave. There was music, dancing, and entertainment every single day, and we received numerous comments saying our wedding was "the best wedding I have ever been to." The "giant rave" continued as we got party buses for our guests to take them for a night out to Coco Bongo, and they loved it. We were all on the big screen, having dance-offs, and they put our hashtag "#KomalFoundHerRaja" on display, which made the night really special!

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The special moment for us was having our parents and grandparents with us, having a great time. We are blessed to have shared this occasion with them. There are family members who have never been on a vacation together, and this was their first trip. They shared how grateful they were that we decided to have a destination wedding, as it brought everyone together.

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Soak it all in! Cherish the little moments with your partner, sing and dance your heart out with your guests and loved ones, and hold your close ones closer.

This wedding was a heartfelt celebration of love, culture, and the beginning of a new life together.

In July 2022, during our trip to Jamaica with "The Crew +2" - my cousins Riddhi, Raj, Amit, Neil, and Akash, and our partners Ravi and Raj's girlfriend, Dhara - an extraordinary surprise awaited us. On that magical day, as we gathered to take group photos on the beach at sunset, a resort photographer offered to take some pictures for us.

Overwhelmed with emotion, tears filled my eyes as the realization of my proposal sank in. It was a night of pure enchantment, surrounded by those closest to my heart.

The journey of planning our wedding became a cherished chapter in our lives, filled with love, laughter, and lasting connections.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The moment that keeps replaying in my mind is when I walked down the aisle on my wedding day. As I took each step, I couldn't help but realize how surrounded I was by loved ones who had traveled far to be there with us. Walking by my side were my two older brothers, Prayag and Krunal, who have always been there for me with their unwavering support, love, and laughter. Seeing the love of my life waiting for me at the end of the aisle made this moment even more special. At that exact moment, I felt the culmination of all the months of planning, and I knew deep down that it was absolutely worth it. We were finally getting married, and the overwhelming happiness I felt was simply indescribable.

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
The greatest words of wisdom I can give to Brides-to-be is to embrace the journey: Wedding planning can be exciting yet overwhelming. Embrace the process, enjoy the milestones, and remember that it's about celebrating your love and commitment.
Thank you for reading, and stay tuned for more inspiring weddings from our Maharani brides!
