Day 1: A Grand Welcome
A luxury coach was arranged to escort guests to the luxurious InterContinental Chennai Mahabalipuram Resort. On arrival, they enjoyed a traditional welcome with fresh coconut water and flowers. Since the first day was primarily about settling down and relaxing, the agenda was deliberately kept light. Guests were served a sumptuous lunch at the Melting Pot restaurant.
After leisurely activities at the pool, they enjoyed a detailed tour of the stunning property, its architecture, lovely spaces, restaurants and leisure services.
This was followed by a sundowner and an early dinner at the resort’s Tao of Peng which is considered as one of the best contemporary Chinese restaurants in Chennai.
Day 2: The WeddingSutra Engage Event
At dawn, the team headed out to explore the temple town of Mahabalipuram along with renowned historian, Chithra Madhavan. She shared details about the rich, ancient history of the beautiful temple town. After a lavish breakfast and some leisure activities, the WeddingSutra Engage event commenced.
Since the theme of the event focused on wedding venues and its impact on photography, there were many important points that were put across during the panel discussion. After the informative session, guests were treated to a delectable high tea spread followed by dinner and cocktails by the bay.
