After a ceremony full of heartfelt moments, love, and ocean breeze, our newlyweds knew it was time to celebrate the milestone big time. The Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa also housed the reception and our lovebirds couldn't have found a more enchanting place. It was looking totally amazing like always. The inviting dance floor lights attracted everyone and that was a clear sign that the party was about to begin and the couple about to arrive. You might think that after a long day of rushing emotions, Maharani Preeti's hair and makeup needed touch-ups. Well... think twice because MVP Hair & Make-Up Artistry's amazing job made sure that not an ounce of glam was lost throughout the day. Our bride was glowing at all times with her undeniable beauty! Want to see more, ladies? Join us one more time in the gorgeous picture gallery, coming to us from Cancun and thanks to Pixan Photography's talented lens. Let's get right into it!

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
Preeti and Giovanni's adventure began in 2008. On an outing with mutual friends, Giovanni couldn't help but be drawn in. Fast-forward through many late night phone calls and countless reruns of Finding Nemo, they became high school sweethearts embarking on their first chapter as a couple as they began college apart. A decade and one cat later, they have since experienced many more chapters of their lives together. From snowboarding to skydiving, traveling and scuba diving, whitewater rafting and lots of camping, Preeti and Gio love adventures and are ecstatic for the many adventures to come! 
 
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
The surprise proposal took place in Newport, Rhode Island. Preeti had been drawn away for a "girls weekend" with her two best girlfriends. What Preeti thought was a dinner at a posh restaurant on Narragansett Sound turned out to be something far more memorable. On the Launch, confused why the boat had stopped, she turned around to see a set of sails eclipsed by the beautiful fall sunset. Surrounded by petals and candles, Giovanni stood at the bow with a bouquet of flowers and a little box. As Preeti approached, he got down on one knee and asked her to spend the rest of her life with him. She said yes and the rest is history.

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I purchased my wedding dress from Pronovias. From my first fitting, I absolutely loved their style and knew I was getting married in a Pronovias dress. I wanted something classic and fitted, but not too glam for a wedding on the beach. 
 
What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
I loved everything about the planning process. I'm a planner so thinking through all the details was so exciting for me. 
 
What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
I think they loved how laid-back everything was. It was all about my guests having fun, dancing, eating, and enjoying the beautiful scenery. 
 
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
The moment when everyone was seated for dinner. Giovanni and I were seated at our sweetheart table and that pretty much the only moment we really had alone for the full day. We were able to take in the surroundings, the decor and watch our guests enjoy the food and mingle. 
 
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
Make private time with your husband-to-be a priority. It can be fun (and get a bit overwhelming) with so many guests around, but be sure to focus on getting some alone time so you can enjoy together. 
 
See you tomorrow, dolls!
