After Sarika and Jamaal’s whirlwind French chateau ceremony, they returned stateside to celebrate at the Waterford Springfield. The couple planned their incredible reception themselves, gathering an all star group of vendors to make their wedding dreams a reality! The space was ornately decorated by Karan at Yaadein Wedding, who embellished the ballroom in orange, gold, and blue drapings. Bridal Elegance by Suman Khosla did a masterful job in creating a hair, makeup, and mehndi look that made Maharani Sarika glow like a goddess! The musical team at Dholi Mastana amped up the crowd for the spirited baraat led by Maharaja Jamaal. As guests took their seats, a joyful reception program began, featuring Sarika and Jamaal (along with Jamaal’s twin brother) performing a dance to "Mujse Shaadi Karogi." Then, Jamaal surprised his new bride by singing an Urdu song about a man professing his love to his wife and relating her beauty to the Taj Mahal. We love how romantic he is! After the dazzling performances, the couple cut their cake by Fluffy Thoughts, which was a four tiered masterpiece that resembled a peacock, cascading down to cupcakes decorated as the peacock’s feathers. So clever! After a decadent meal by The Bukhara, the couple and their nearest and dearest swarmed the dance floor and boogied to beats by DJ Ashu. The bar featured custom cocktails that Sarika and Jamaal personally created, called "The Botox" and "The Anesthetic,” which was a nod to their careers as a dermatologist and an anesthesiologist. Maharanis, peruse the full gallery by Jaimin Shah Photography for tons of wedding inspiration. We wish so much happiness to Sarika and Jamaal as they begin their journey together as husband and wife!
