Wedding Planning
Yugandara Tayade of Ever After Weddings said, “Planning this wedding was an absolute delight. They were among those rare couples who trusted the process, communicated with clarity, and embraced every moment with calm confidence. As if nature had joined the celebration, Bahrain welcomed the festivities with beautiful weather, creating the perfect backdrop for every ceremony. Watching guests immerse themselves in these age-old customs with curiosity, admiration, and heartfelt enthusiasm added an extra layer of magic to the celebrations. The result was a wedding that felt genuine, joyful, and deeply personal.”
Wedding Functions
Haldi
The Haldi was a daytime, poolside celebration with a soothing peach and pastel palette. The couple performed the ceremony seated in giant urlis under a canopy of marigold strings.
Sangeet
An evening affair, the sangeet venue sported a blue and lavender palette. A glam evening, everyone turned up in their shimmering best, with family and friends across generations keeping each other engaged with their performances. As the evening continued, everyone turned up at the dance floor and let their hair loose.
Wedding
Accompanied by family, friends, the beats of the dhol, the groom arrived in a plush car, and the bride made an equally stunning entry under a phoolon ki chadar. The pheres were held under a white canopied mandap. The reception dinner was a black-tie affair that saw the couple’s first dance and family speeches, making for a warm and blessed evening.
