Our latest Masterclass- Thailand edition held at the newly opened Shangri-La Hotel in Bangalore attracted a wonderful mix of wedding industry professionals– from top destination wedding specialists, emerging wedding planners, wedding photographers and film-makers to creative professionals– like invitations & gift specialists, make-up artists & stylists.
