Hailing from an eminent business family in Hyderabad, the clients wished for an engagement celebration like no other. Stepping away from their usual wedding shindigs that often saw guest lists of over 2000, they envisaged a celebration that was different yet epic. Going down the path of a destination getaway, they gravitated towards the exotic beauty of Bali for a beautiful beach celebration at Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua Beach Resort, a dream come true for the bride.

The team of Purple Tree Event Solutions came together with Zesst Events and Weddings to plan the monumental affair full of musical moments, creative performances, unique experiences, and more. In fact, the entire event design was conceptualized, crafted and executed by Purple Tree Event Solutions with the help of local vendors who understood the couple’s needs accurately. Anchor JK lent his charm and wit to preside over the festivities, ensuring every moment was as memorable as can be for the guests, while The Blemished Tales captured everything in artistic shots.

Team Purple Tree Event Solutions shares, “This was our second event in Bali in the very same venue, and we had a great time reconnecting with all the vendors. There was a certain amount of familiarity, which helped us a lot in curating a celebration of such epic proportions. While we independently managed the entire decor design and styling, working with Zesst Events and Weddings on the planning front was a great experience, as this event called for a lot of intricate details, VIP arrangements, and seamless execution. From arranging charter flights for all the guests from Hyderabad to assembling a police convoy for the couple, every aspect was handled expertly.
Aakash Doshi of Zesst Events and Weddings shares, “It was our first collaboration ever with Purple Tree and it was such a smooth one. Both our teams wanted the wedding to be memorable, and we look forward to working with them again.”

Sundowner
Imbibed with Balinese and bohemian flavors, the beach-side Carnival kicked things off to a lively start! Brimming with bright colors and tropical blooms, the vibrant decor lit up against the backdrop of the sea, setting a fun ambiance that was further elevated by an abundance of activities and delicious eats for the guests. Stalls for hair-braiding, nail art, ice cream, novelty snacks, coconut water, cocktails, and more made for moments of enjoyment for the guests. The bride and groom spiked the energy levels as they arrived with an entourage of local dancers, which continued with music, dance, games, and more. The highlight of the occasion were the fire dancers who dazzled with their skills, lighting up the massive couple hashtag as a finale.

Dressed in riveting couture ensembles, the bride and groom made a sparkling entry before kicking off the night with fun games, rousing music by a Hyderabad-based band, dancing, and cocktails.
