How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
I met him through my highschool friends boyfriend, which was also his highschool friend. He sent my Instagram handle. The moment i came home from work and saw my phone it was full of bunch of likes, so i also go and like his pictures but he only had 4. So i didnt want to seem too interested so i only liked a couple. and he liked more of my pictures. So i message him, and he said he was returning the favor!
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
Our proposal was done with close friends and family. I told him where ever he did it, my sister has to be there! He made a plan when we went to visit my Sister in jersey, we went to New York and he had a proposal planned at the Edge. I was talking to him about this  place and how i want to go there few months prior to our proposal, and he made it happen!
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.
Planning part, It kind of got really hectic trying to jugle work and planning a full wedding at the same time! I turned to Nandani, I met her for the first time with my parents and Prashill and loved her! She made the whole experience less hectic. She replied to all the emails and set up all the appointments. She even ran through what was needed from me during those meetings with each vendor.
Shopping was very exciting, i ordered my wedding outfit from Ejaaz Couture, and the rest of the events i designed them. Shopping was exciting since my whole family was there sharing opinions and buying everything together for the wedding. At times it was confusing since we didnt know what to pick and worried if it would match, but it all turned out amazing!
How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
Wedding dress?, i was always into weddings and always talked about my wedding. I looked on instagram for suggestions, and i knew i was very detailed and i had to love every part of what i am wearing. My wedding i knew i wanted a red but not a bold red, I saw the Ejaaz outfit in one picture but didnt see anyone wearing it, i always had my mind on it, and when it came to the time when i had to choose it always pulled me to the one that i saw a year prior.
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
The best part of the planning was executing, haha I loved when we got done picking vendors and we only had to worry about the small things, like decor and how its decorated, or suggestions on the food, or shopping and making sure everything was purchased and ready to use.
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
My guest enjoyed how well it was organized and went through without any hic ups. Usually we would forget something. Nandani is so great at making sure that each detail is perfect. She remembers everything i wanted and exactly how i wanted things. I was worried that during the event and wedding days they may need me for something, but nandani knew how i would want that done so she made sure it was done before any issues came to me.
The guest enjoyed the food, everyone LOVED it!!! We had food served to guest almost 4 times a day including snacks and drinks. My Food Caters were amazing they stayed on top of everything.
Everyone enjoyed how well it was executed, and since we would be on a time crunch no one still felt rushed. It all happened on time and everyone was able to enjoy it!
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
When i was walking down the aisle and almost cried! I knew i had to be strong since my dad was walking me down and he would cry immediately! The pheras, only happens once so make sure to give each other the most time and walk very slow!!
The last thing is when we fed each other the Pada and Kajukatri. We made sure to add a special touch of us to it. We are very playful, but yet caring so we made sure to enjoy it!
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 was my favorite event other than the wedding, It was the first event together that both sides were able to mingle and enjoy. It was very special to see how both families were able to laugh and converse together.
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Please take it easy, there is times when i would panic, but now looking back at it, its done! The planning and the shopping, the events are sometimes always so stressful that we forget that its going to be done too quick! Make sure to always look at each and know that this is your time spent together and the memories you create!

To our beloved readers, until the next magical tale, stay in love and stay inspired. See you!

How did you meet your Groom, and when did you know he was "the one"?
Nico and I met at the end of our first year of Pharmacy School. He then moved into the same apartment building our second year. We became fast friends, and before I knew it, he became someone I couldn't go even one day without talking to. I saw day in and day out how he treated everyone around him, and one day a flip just switched, and I knew I wanted him to be more than just a friend and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him.

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
I wish I could give exact details of everything, but my husband did such a great job keeping things a surprise, so I can only give a second-hand account of everything leading up to the moment. Apparently, my husband planned out a minute-by-minute account of how he wanted the day to go. He designed the ring of my dreams and recruited his best friend and my cousin to help set up the day. He took me to Princeton, NJ (with the false pretense of having brunch) and led me through the pathways of Princeton University's campus. We happened upon a setting of rose petals and photos and a sign that said: "Marry Me." Initially, before noticing who was actually in the pictures, I tried to drag him away, thinking we were ruining someone else's proposal. It wasn't until he literally took me toward the pictures that I knew what was happening. It was definitely the most perfect moment. He then surprised me again when we got back to his house with all my family and friends there for a party. It was such a perfect day.

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 wedding process was a little overwhelming and stressful, to say the least. Nico is Hindu, and I am Catholic, so we were looking at a wedding that would span over 4/5 days at the very least. We initially started looking for venues in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Still, we quickly realized the wedding we imagined just wouldn't be possible if we had it in the U.S., so we decided to look into a destination wedding. We found the most amazing travel company, "Indian Destination Wedding," who helped us find the most perfect resort that met every one of our needs. The Grand Palladium in Costa Mujeres, MX, fits all of our needs. It had the perfect church for our Catholic wedding ceremony, the most beautiful beach for our Hindu wedding ceremony, and open and beautiful outdoor spaces for our other events. All of the staff at the venue really treated us as family and gave us a great experience. Our wedding planner Cristina from "Unique Stories Weddings" helped us find the vendors that really fit our vision for what we wanted our wedding days to look like. I had Alex Corbanezi Beauty for my hair and makeup, and they really listened to exactly what I wanted for each look every day. They did everything I asked for and went above and beyond to make me feel like a princess of my wedding days. Zuniga decor did an amazing job on each day - Mehndi/garba, Vidhi, Indian Wedding, Catholic Wedding, and Reception. We had a DJ and MC from MVPDJs travel out to Mexico for our wedding, and we cannot say anything but good things about them. Dj Prit and MC Sorab brought the house down every single night, and our guests could not get enough of them. We used Sweet Caribbean Photo for our Photo and Video team, and they did an amazing job capturing all the moments; we are very happy with the photos and the amazing highlight video they put together. We ended up with such an amazing team of people that we could not be more grateful for.

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
Since we had two wedding ceremonies, I was lucky enough to pick out two amazing wedding outfits. My bridal lengha, I knew I wanted to be red. It was important to me to keep it traditional for my husband's family. Finding the right shade of red and a design, I liked was definitely a process, especially since I wasn't able to go to India myself for any shopping. My mom, mother-in-law, and I went to a few places in New Jersey to see what kind of styles I would like, but I didn't find anything that I liked. We eventually found a shop in India online that had styles I was more interested in. My mother-in-law and I face-timed with a shop a few times and found an outfit that I loved; she then went to India and made sure every detail was exactly as we wanted. Now, my Catholic wedding was a little easier. I had dreamed of the dress I had wanted for SUCH a long time, and it was easier for me to figure out. My cousins and I went dress shopping, and we only went to 3 shops to try on dresses before I knew what my perfect dress was. One day of wedding dress shopping, I knew pretty immediately which one was mine.

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
As stressful and overwhelming as wedding planning was, Nico and I really enjoyed picking our colors and the type of decor we wanted. It was nice to mix both of our different tastes to create a wedding that was both of ours. The whole process brought us closer together and really taught us how to be a team in the best way possible.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
Our guests loved that it was a destination wedding, and they loved the resort we chose. They loved having a bit of vacation time along with celebrating us. It was a great place for both the adults at our wedding and also the kids. They all had a great time! They also loved all details we incorporated into many aspects of our wedding. From the personalized coconuts and Popcorn box wedding programs for them to snack on at our Hindu wedding ceremony to the custom maracas with all the guest's names hand-painted on and their table numbers which we used as our seating plan for the reception as well as a wedding favor for them to take home.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
There were so many special moments from our wedding week that we constantly look back on - like all of the time we got to spend with our family and friends during our wedding events and also after. Every day, we would meet up with our family/friends at night and hang out, and everyone was able to get to know the people at the wedding that they didn't know or didn't get a chance to speak to at our events. From our wedding days specifically, seeing my husband sitting/standing at the end of an aisle waiting for me is an image that is forever burned into my memory.

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?

The only words of wisdom I have would be to take it one day at a time. It is so easy to get caught up in everything that needs to be done that you try to do too much at once. Pace yourself and go easy on yourself. Everything you want will happen as long as you breathe, take it one step at a time, and ask for help from your partner. It's much less stressful that way.
We hope you enjoy today's feature, darlings. Cheers to love and the endless possibilities it brings!

Princeton, NJ Gujurati Wedding by House of Talent Studio

Hello, beauty queens! Don't miss the lovely story of Reshma & Raj in today's Platinum Guide Blog

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.
Wedding planning and preparations are very time-sensitive. Thankfully we had wonderful vendors who graciously answered our detailed questions and helped make our wedding weekend into such a memorable event. Our wedding planner guided us and helped us stay on track so that our dreams were able to come to fruition.

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
The most enjoyable part was having everything come to life and go smoothly as planned (and on time!). Our friends and family were able to celebrate with us, which meant everything.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
The food (Chaand Palace & Moghul Catering) and Venue (Hyatt Regency Princeton) made a lasting impression on all the guests as everyone was memorized by all the events, decorations, displays, and food options.

Friday, October 14th Evening - Sangeet
Saturday October 15th (All day) - Baraat + Wedding & Cocktail Hour + Reception

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
I had a bird's eye view from inside the hotel on the top floor on the morning of the baraat. When the DJ announced my name and pointed to where I was, I had 450+ people turn their heads and cheer me on. They were not only looking but smiling and dancing alongside me! Even though I couldn't hear the music, I was told my dance moves were on beat with the music!

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Work on the wedding planning together. This is a special occasion for both of you, and you should not take that lightly. Spend time and understand what each other wants. Take breaks from the wedding planning and also remember to enjoy the present time!
Also, make sure you have a system, write everything down, and keep organized!
Remember to enjoy the moment and let go of your worries on your special day.

We hope you enjoy today's feature, darlings. Cheers to love and the endless possibilities it brings!
