Wedding Venue
The couple was on the search for a property with diverse spaces so they could host all their wedding functions under one roof while ensuring every event had a distinctive feel. On their planner’s recommendation, they zeroed in upon the stunning Saya Grand Club and Spa Resort for their staycation celebration.
Wedding Planning
With crystal clear ideas about how they wanted every function to look and feel, the couple entrusted the team of Arth Eventertainment to bring their vision to life. Talking about the experience, Ishita shares, “My experience of working with Arth Eventertainment has been really great. The fact that I can still pick up the phone and have a wholesome conversation with them speaks volumes and I would recommend them to everyone I know. They came well-prepared with their presentation, and the love and affection they put into our wedding made us feel like they were our family. They gave us inputs but never discounted ours. Each of their team members had their strengths and worked wonderfully with each other, and also made our families feel at ease through the whole experience. They paid attention to every detail. With them at the wheel, all you have to do is enjoy your wedding and be at peace!”
Wedding Functions
Engagement
The elegant Engagement unfolded with intimate festivities on the hotel’s rooftop venue. Crafted in a palette of green, the occasion saw plush furnishings, plumes of foliage, and the couple’s initials in sleek gold lettering to lend a chic touch.
Mehndi
Imbibed with the romantic floral decor of soft pinks, the Mehndi soiree saw lively revelries. Dressed in blush pink to match the mood, the couple was the portrait of happiness as they danced and made merry with their loved ones.
Haldi
Brimming with vibrant decor and lively moments, the Haldi channeled the fun and enjoyment of a summer “mela”, complete with an ice gola stand to beat the heat. The decor of swaying drapes and marigolds in white and yellow set a soothing ambiance, which lit up with a splash of red as the guests showered the couple with rose petals. Moreover, the groom was doused with water from a silver bucket.
Wedding
Hosted in the grand banquet, the wedding decor of white and green with pops of red exuded understated grandeur. The stunning mandap saw a lush canopy of foliage with antique chandeliers and gold kaleerein. Dressed in an ensemble of all red, the bride looked riveting as she took her vows with her beau amidst great applause.
Reception
The wedding was followed by a formal Reception at Interlink Banquets. A profusion of white blooms and greenery took over the space, setting an enchanting ambiance for the evening of music, dancing, and heartfelt speeches. The bride dazzled in a shimmering white lehenga while the groom looked regal in a black Achkan.
After-party
A chic after-party at Lord of the Drinks Powai brought the celebrations to a rousing close. Velvet seating, red roses, and lush foliage set a sensuous tone for an evening of cocktails and music as the newlyweds enjoyed with their loved ones.
Advice for couples
“My suggestion to all couples that are getting married would be to have a clear vision of what you want in terms of decor, outfits, and guest list. Additionally, make sure you are looking at the previous work of artists to ensure your vibe matches the vibe of your vendors before you have them on board. And finally, communication is key whether it’s with vendors, family members, your partner, or your guests.”
