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!
