Wedding Planning, WeddingSutra Engage, Wedding Summit & Masterclass, WeddingSutra Influencer Awards - Apr 3, 2018
Manish Malhotra, Devangi Nishar, Tina Tahiliani Parikh, Malavika Sangghvi, Jaspreet Chandok, Pradeep Guha, Taljinder Singh share insights on what it takes to be the biggest Wedding Influencers in India.
What do the biggest Wedding Influencers in India have in common? Is it the vision to think big? Or is it the ability to constantly delight with innovative ideas or impress with something unexpected? We put the question to the esteemed jury members of the WeddingSutra Influencer Awards 2018 which is set to take place in association with the Seychelles Tourism Board.
The panel of jury members came together for a power-packed luncheon at The Souk, The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai on March 31st. One key goal of getting these eminent personalities from the worlds of fashion, media, retail, and hospitality was to discuss how to foster innovation in the wedding industry.
There was an engaging discussion on what creativity means in this market and how does one define influence. Jury members presented their insights into the evolving tastes of new-age brides, the manner in which destination weddings have impacted the bridal jewellery market, and even how the wedding industry has become a agent for the best talent drawn from fields such as filmmaking and event management.
