As the sun caressed the lush gardens of The Merion, guests were welcomed into a scene straight out of a royal Indian fantasy. The floral arrangements by Exclusive Events NY were the epitome of luxury—lush roses intertwined with marigolds lined the aisle, and the mandap was a floral dream, beautifully framing the couple as they exchanged vows. The mandap stood as the event's centerpiece, adorned with delicate blooms that created an intimate yet grand setting. The atmosphere was charged with emotions, and every glance shared between Poonam & Rohit radiated their love and joy, making it clear that this was the beginning of a beautiful journey together.

And speaking of dramatic entrances, Rohit arrived standing tall (quite literally) in a convertible, decked out in marigold garlands. His joy was contagious, setting the tone for a day that was going to be nothing short of spectacular. It was a grand moment, filled with cheers and laughter as the groom made his memorable arrival, a sight that left everyone in awe of the grandeur of the event.

Poonam, the epitome of grace and beauty, was glowing as she entered. Dressed to perfection by Urban Vanity, her bridal look was a masterpiece. The intricate mehndi and her soft, glamorous makeup highlighted her natural beauty, making her the queen of the day. Their first look? It was frozen as they locked eyes, surrounded by a golden hue of love and light.

As the evening shifted into the reception, DJ Monu Entertainment & MSI Events USA turned up the energy, and the dance floor was packed from start to finish. Poonam & Rohit's first dance was pure magic, set against a backdrop of twinkling lights and floral arrangements that took the decor to another level. The night was filled with laughter, heartfelt speeches, and, of course, non-stop dancing. Guests couldn't help but groove to the beats, leaving no room for sore feet.

Capturing every enchanting moment was Lightyear Studio. Their stunning photography immortalized every frame's joy, laughter, and love. Each photo was a work of art, from the soft, intimate moments between the couple to the grand, celebratory shots.

A day of timeless love and unforgettable moments that will linger in everyone’s hearts forever.

Lights, camera, action! Get ready to dive into the grand spectacle of #harshharshmiloni—an Indian wedding that took the shores of Cancun. Picture this: The tranquil waves of the Caribbean gently crashing onto the sandy beach, a soft breeze swaying palm trees in the distance. Enter Miloni, the bride of our dreams, in a breathtaking red lehenga adorned with intricate gold embroidery. It shimmered as she walked, as if each thread had a story to tell. Her regal jewelry added just the right sparkle, so why not blind your audience with some severe bridal bling?

His outfit perfectly complemented Miloni's, proving that true love is color-coordinated. The moment Miloni & Harsh locked eyes during their first look? If this were a Bollywood movie, we'd all cry in the theater. Every great love story has a plot twist, and this one's no different. After a traditional ceremony that would make even the gods weep joyfully, the newlyweds took the celebration to the reception. The dance floor shimmered under twinkling lights, and DJ Sunny P was spinning beats with everyone on their feet, from grandma to the cousin who "doesn't dance."

None of this grandeur would've been possible without the magic touch of Moksha Weddings, who designed and planned every detail perfectly. Navita x Makeup gave Miloni her radiant bridal glow, while Federico Salmeron Photography was there to capture every tear, laugh, and secret glance (and trust us, there were many). Saptapadi Weddings handled the videography, turning this dream day into a cinematic masterpiece that the couple can relive forever. Indian Destination Wedding, Inc. ensured the journey was as smooth as the tequila shots the guests were sneaking during cocktail hour. And let's not forget the venue—Moon Palace Cancun provided the luxurious, beachfront backdrop and mouth-watering catering that had everyone reaching for seconds (and thirds).

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
We met on the dating app Hinge - a question on my profile asked, "can you see yourself living with 2 - 3 bullmastiffs?" He said owning bullmastiffs was a dream of his, and we hit it off from there. I knew he was "the one" when all the mundane tasks in life became more exciting because we constantly laugh together. Whether or not we will actually be able to handle 3 bullmastiffs... is to be determined!

Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
We had just moved across the country from Ohio to Oregon a few months prior to our engagement. Logan's sister was visiting us for the first time in our new home city, and we had planned a nice dinner together. Before going into the restaurant, Logan led me to a scenic trail outside the restaurant, pretending he was seeing it for the first time, and proposed! Our friends were hiding to get photos of us. When we headed into the restaurant, our parents, close family, and friends were all waiting for us for a surprise engagement party he had planned :)

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.
First, lots of online research! We also worked with Indian Destination Wedding, who helped us choose our venue and answer questions about logistics. We couldn't have done it without them! I also searched Facebook groups for vendor recommendations in Cancun, which was very helpful! That's how I found my hair and makeup vendor (VO Evolution) and photographer (Pixan Photography).

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I bought my bridal lehenga from Pernia's, who was fantastic to work with if you are unable to make a trip to India. I always imagined my bridal lehenga to be a deep red, so I customized a bridal lehenga from designer Ruchika Hurria to be a deeper red, with a customized blouse.

Having grown up in the US, I felt like I would miss out by not wearing white at my wedding, and I also wanted a lehenga that I could freely dance in. So I worked with my Aunt, who lives in India, to customize a white lehenga for my reception.

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
We decided early on to choreograph our first dance after choosing our song (Swing Life Away, by Rise Against). Neither of us had dance experience, and we started dance lessons nearly a year before our wedding. It was such a fun learning and bonding experience, and although stressful at times, it felt great to work on it together.

Darlings, enjoy our mesmerizing blog, which vividly captures the magic of each couple's special day.
