Anisha Nath and Tushar Chittransh, Hotel Lakend, Udaipur
From the ‘Modern Vrindavan’ Mehndi to the ‘Oscars’-inspired Sangeet and ‘Rust Wonderla’ Haldi, this Udaipur wedding saw a dizzying array of creative themes!
The wedding of Anisha Nath, an Ahmedabad-based creative professional and founder of Anisha Nath Designs, and Tushar Chittransh, an accomplished Software Professional and Pharma entrepreneur from Shahjahanpur, was a celebration of their love and distinct personalities, framed against the natural beauty of their picturesque venue. The riveting lakeside wedding was thoughtfully brought to life by WeddingSutra Favorite – Mosaic Events by Raj Batra.
Wedding Planning
Anisha was enchanted by the inviting essence of Udaipur, a city that exuded warmth and charm. Her family’s visit in 2022, during her brother Akhilesh’s wedding, was nothing short of spectacular. Tushar, too, envisioned Rajasthan as the perfect backdrop for the nuptials, aiming to provide a unique and unforgettable experience for his loved ones from Shahjahanpur. The exceptional hospitality of Team Lakend, who fondly remembered the 2022 celebration, coupled with the reassurance from the Mosaic Team, made the planning process seamless for both families.
Given that the venue was a familiar one, it was essential to curate a décor and theme that diverged from the previous wedding. Anisha and Tushar were united in their vision for an elegant and sophisticated aesthetic that would not overshadow the stunning lake views and majestic mountains. Anisha’s lively spirit called for vibrant colors and floral arrangements, while Tushar preferred a more understated elegance. Their shared desire was for the décor and events to foster connections among guests.
The exquisite menu was undoubtedly the centerpiece of the wedding celebration, with the culinary offerings spanning a diverse selection, featuring Rajasthani, Thai, Italian, and Chinese cuisines, complemented by special dishes from Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat. The desserts were simply irresistible, leaving guests enchanted and unable to resist indulging. The Sangeet night was elevated by a remarkable Tava special treat for non-vegetarian guests, prepared by a team of Bhatiyaras flown in from Ahmedabad. The dedication and enthusiasm of Team Mosaic were palpable, as each member worked tirelessly to create unforgettable moments. Their understanding of the couple’s desires and the family’s needs was exceptional.
Wedding Functions
Pre-Wedding Dinner
A Karaoke Night and Dinner was elegantly hosted at the Lakeside Raj Bagh Restaurant for the families of the bride and groom. This delightful gathering was inspired by Anisha and Tushar, who recognized the musical talents within their families, particularly those who shone on “Star Maker.” The enchanting melodies of legendary artists like Mohammed Rafi and Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhosale, and Lata Mangeshkar were further elevated by a vibrant DJ, creating an atmosphere perfect for celebration and connection. The intimate, minimalist décor in soft lavender hues, adorned with fresh flowers and a professionally arranged stage, infused the evening with sophistication and charm.
Mehndi
For the Mehndi, the guests were welcomed into a dazzling spectacle embodying the essence of Modern Vrindavan, set against the stunning vista of Fateh Sagar Lake. This harmonious fusion of tradition and contemporary flair, complemented by a DJ playing popular tunes worked as an antidote to drive away the fatigue of the long journey and set the mood for the day. Meanwhile, the women had their hands adorned by the Mehndi artists under a vibrant canopy.
Sangeet
Inspired by Oscar elements, the opulent palette of gold, silver, and blue elegantly captured the essence of the Sangeet, inviting guests to discover their inner star. Dining beneath a canopy of stars, adorned with twinkling fairy lights and a vibrant LED screen that harmonized with the rhythm of the evening, created an electrifying atmosphere. The meticulously curated selection of spirits and bespoke cocktails crafted by the master mixologist set the stage for family and friends to showcase their talents in a dazzling display. Relatives from all corners gathered to perform, delivering a show that could rival Broadway itself. The evening was further enriched by the captivating anchors, the bride’s brother and father, who held the audience in rapt attention. A stunning champagne tower by Tushar and an exhilarating fire show by the bartender, honored the couple, while the highlight of the night was Anisha’s heartfelt audio-visual tribute, ‘Humari Pari Hai Tu.’ This touching presentation, featuring cherished photographs selected by her parents and accompanied by lyrics from her brother Akhilesh, along with a lively composition by her devoted sister-in-law Vijaya, evoked tears of joy and laughter from all in attendance.
After Party
Transitioning from the ethereal glow of starlit skies to the vibrant pulse of neon lights, the After Party unfolded from an open stage to an electrifying dance floor. The meticulously choreographed movements gave way to spontaneous head-banging, creating an atmosphere that was anything but for the faint-hearted. Bursting with energy and adrenaline, the celebration reached exhilarating heights, as the DJ’s powerful beats reverberated through the venue, nearly lifting the roof off as the night seamlessly flowed into the next day.
Haldi
The wedding festivities commenced with the enchanting Haldi and Pholon ki Holi, adorned in the exquisite “Rust Wonderla” theme, a refreshing departure from the customary Haldi yellows. This innovative choice allowed the vibrant hues of the occasion to truly shine, beautifully captured by Team PAL against the breathtaking backdrop of Fatehsagar Lake. Guests were immersed in a flurry of selfies and candid moments until the air was electrified by a lively Garba tune, an announcement for one and all to join the Dandia Raas. This spirited dance became the pinnacle of the celebration, uniting both families and guests in joyous harmony as they showered blessings upon Anisha and Tushar.
Sehra Bandhi
The Lakeside Raj Baug Lawns offered an exquisite backdrop for the Sehra Bandhi, which was perfectly situated for the Baraat procession and overlooked the serene Fatehsagar Lake. The venue’s charm was evident as guests captured selfies, while a delightful array of snacks, high tea, and cocktails charged the atmosphere. With a lively band and a special group of Dholis from Delhi, the energy was palpable, inviting the Baraatis to dance the Bhangra in exuberance. Adding a touch of elegance, the Nath Family’s vintage Buick Convertible graced the procession, infusing the event with a regal flair.
Wedding
The culmination of many dreams and a year’s worth of planning, the exquisite wedding of Anisha and Tushar was a vision of elegance and sophistication. The delicate peach hues intertwined with subtle reds complemented the bride’s gown perfectly, setting the tone for a celebration steeped in class. A stunning podium for the varmala, framed by the serene lake, and an acrylic glass pathway for the bride’s entrance created a breathtaking ambiance, while the traditional sound of the “ShankhNaad” heralded her arrival. The enchanting pyrotechnics and Anisha’s graceful dance as she approached Tushar were flawlessly brought to life by Team Mosaic. A thoughtfully designed stage for family photographs prior to the phera ceremony allowed cherished moments to be captured.
