Jashh and Sweety, Lonavala & Ahmedabad
From hit singers like Neha Kakkar and Adnan Sami to magnificent decor, Jashh and Sweety's wedding was a memorable event for their loved ones.
They first met when they were teenagers, and their journey continued till they tied the knot years later. While the wedding was planned by Ahmedabad-based True Events, two WeddingSutra Favorites – Wedniksha and Priyam Parikh Pictures – played an important role in helping bride Sweety and groom Jashh host a memorable wedding. Wedniksha managed their grand reception, while Priyam Parikh Pictures candidly captured all their special moments. Bride Sweety shares more details here.
How We Met
“We met through a common friend when we were just 16, and our first conversation lasted for five hours long. We discussed our experiences, likes, and dislikes, and that meeting was magical. We kept in touch after that. Gradually we became closer, and soon we were in love with each other. With this, began our seven-year relationship. After having spent that much time with each other and seen our love grow through the years, marriage was the next obvious step. We knew we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together and so we decided to tie the knot.”
Wedding Planning
“We had two wedding planning teams who worked together to help us realize our dream wedding. True Events helped in planning our dream wedding while Wedniksha was in charge of our grand reception. My invitations were designed by Ravish Kapoor, and Mallika Bhat did my makeup. Priyam Parikh of Priyam Parikh Pictures preserved the moments of our wedding in timeless frames.”
Wedding Functions
‘Qawwali High Tea’
“As our guests reached the destination to celebrate, we welcomed them with a ‘Qawwali High Tea.’ For the function, we had trained and talented performers who kept our guests entertained. All our loved ones enjoyed themselves at the event which set a joyous mood for the wedding.”
Sangeet
“Next, we hosted our sangeet for which we had a magnificent setup. The decor at the entrance featured a colossal chandelier surrounded by suspended florals and green. Inside the function area, a stage was set up with a backdrop comprising large golden frames with LED screens. Singer Mohammed Irfan and the music composer duo Sajid Wajid regaled everyone with memorable performances. For this function, I wore a red outfit by Falguni Shane Peacock, while Jashh opted for a Tom Ford suit.”
Pool Party
“The following morning it was time to have some fun under the sun with a pool party. Our setup for this event was inspired by a day at the beach and featured lots of surfboards. Since this was a day event, we stuck to a pastel color palette of baby blue, peach and white so that the decor was easy on the eyes. For our entrance, half of the passageway was covered in floor-length decorations that were suspended from the roof, while the other half had Chinese lanterns and streamers. The entertainment for this event was provided by Neha Kakkar who knew just how to keep the party going with her stellar songs. Staying true to the color scheme, I wore a peach gown by Sonakshi Raaj, and Jashh chose to wear a suit with a printed jacket.”
Wedding
“At our wedding, a floral chandelier in the shape of a flower with an ornate center made for the roof of our mandap and proved to be the focal point of the decor. For an occasion that was so momentous, we had to have a singer who is an icon in his or her own right. So we invited Bappi Lahiri to perform at our function. I wore a red lehenga by Dolly J, while Jashh opted for a sherwani by Raghavendra Rathore.”
Reception
“Our reception took place in a beautiful open-air location, and the setup emulated the look of a Victorian Palace. Right, from the entrance to the stage, everything was grand. The night was made even more remarkable by singer Adnan Sami who kept the audience engaged with his melodies. Wednishka made sure that the reception truly was a memorable event. A Gaurav Gupta Gown was my outfit of choice for this function, and Jashh picked a suit by Tom Ford.”
