Chandni and Rahul, The Westin Goa
A beach-side, sunlit wedding that was equal parts a raging party and an ode to tradition and family.
With its promise of romance, beaches and celebrations, it’s no wonder that Goa was the destination of choice for Chandni Badlani and Rahul Rawtani when they started planning their wedding. Both had a clear vision: Rahul wanted a wedding full of entertainment, hospitality, and unforgettable guest experiences, and Chandni was focused on aesthetics, décor, and outfits that blended seamlessly into the vibe. With the whole property of Westin Goa available to them for the wedding, WeddingSutra Favorite – Amore World Events had the perfect canvas to design the couple’s dream wedding.
Wedding Planning
From the tropical Mehendi to the glitzy Sangeet, the royal Baraat to the heartfelt white mandap wedding, every detail of Chandni and Rahul’s Goa wedding reflected their personalities.
Ruchit Khannaa of Amore World Events says, “Food was as carefully curated as décor at this wedding. With no repeated dishes across meals, the menus offered fresh variety at every event. With expertise in hospitality, I worked with former Westin executive chef Aniruddha to ensure that the culinary journey was just as memorable as the entertainment.”
“At Amore World Events, we believe a wedding should feel like your story come alive—fun, stylish, emotional, and unforgettable. And this one truly had it all,” he adds.
Wedding Functions
Poolside Mehendi / Welcome Lunch
The celebrations kicked off with a Mehendi by the pool deck. The fruity colors and floral details, eased the guests into the laidback vibes of Goa. Guests entered through a playful flavor-shot booth: “Take a Shot at Love – Your Ticket to the Celebration!”
The couple’s entry was pure fun—family and friends trailed behind with color shot guns, while Chandni and Rahul released balloon-tied shots into the sky to announce the start of the festivities.
A boat full of chilled beers, popsicles in fun alcoholic & non-alcoholic flavors, groovy beats by DJ Rohit Pawar & Rituraj on percussion and lively games curated by Emcee Himani Singh, ensured that the guests knew this celebration was going to be one big Goa party!
Sangeet Night
The Sangeet was straight out of a Bollywood party scene—a shimmering silver walkway, disco balls, and even a flying horse installation.
The evening opened with fun banter from Himani Singh, followed by a stunning violin set by Ana, creating a magical build-up to the couple’s grand entry. Chandni and Rahul’s entry was on a cloud-covered floor with focus lights trailing them, making it seem like they were walking on air.
Wedding
Rahul proved that grooms can make as grand an entrance as brides. Riding in a vintage Mercedes 450 in royal red, pyro gun in hand, and beats by DJ Rohit on wheels, the Baraat turned into a street party.
The pheras took place in the majestic lobby of Westin Goa, where soaring ceilings framed a dreamy all-white mandap. Pearls, gypsos, chrysanthemums, baby’s breath, and delicate crystal birds floating above added to the touch of timelessness.
Chandni’s self-designed golden bridal outfit shimmered under natural light, creating a regal look that perfectly balanced tradition and modern flair.
Glow-in-the-Dark After Party
Once the vows were done, it was time to turn up the fun. The after-party lit up the night with neon props, glow sticks, and UV lights. Guests went wild dancing to BluBirds, a high-energy DJ-based band that kept the floor buzzing until sunrise.
