Now this is what I call pure wedding bliss! Ace of Events brings their A game as this whirlwind of extraordinary festivities unfolds. This auspicious occasion not only marks the union of two cultures, but it combines elegance, tradition, and romance. Moghul Caterers fills the air with a delicious menu of Indian cuisine and guests sit back and enjoy an evening of indulgence. Maharani Swathi is a complete stunner in her array of ensembles, from a glamorous wedding dress to a bold coral bridal sari to a sparkling powder pink reception gown—I can't possibly decide which one is my favorite! I love them all! And I love the whimsical pink reception! Too cute! Turning Point Cinema  enthrals us as these newlyweds celebrate their love and I couldn't be happier for these two! Congrats!

It's been a magical week of mehndi, Maharanis! Good luck to all our finalists in the 2013 Mehndi Maharani Contest! In case you missed our exclusive chat with Ash Kumar, you can check it out here!
