Wedding Venue
The St.Regis promised an ambiance of decadence for their grand Sangeet soiree, while the couple chose the timeless property of The Taj Mahal Palace Mumbai as the setting of their dream wedding. With unmatched views of The Gateway of India and the harbour, the exclusive elite club ‘The Chambers’ offered an idyllic space for their ceremony, while the elegant venues of Crystal Room and Ballroom were chosen as the backdrop for the Reception and After Party.
Wedding Planning
The couple entrusted The Vow Weavers to bring their creative ideas to life. Reflecting on the experience, they share “Nitisha and Neelam went above and beyond every step of the way and were able to not only build a friendship with us, but also with our parents. In the months leading up to the wedding they sent us reminders for things to do, brought our attention to things we might have missed, and shared countless ideas for wedding favours, mehndi activities, sangeet entries, and so much more. Through the stressful times, they always kept the mood light and even took on a lot of our stress. Their expertise in wedding planning meant that they knew the right questions to ask and the right direction in which to steer us. Our wedding went absolutely perfectly. We definitely recommend Nitisha and Neelam to those seeking a good planner and a memorable wedding.”
