Wedding Planning
The couple had a diverse vision for their wedding events, each with a unique theme. Hosted in Udaipur, the festivities were exquisitely planned and executed by Plush Weddings. The team orchestrated the wedding with many memorable moments, such as a distinct entry for the couple at each event. The after-parties were also planned to showcase contrasting atmospheres – one was filled with a DJ and lively dhol walas, while the other offered a more sophisticated vibe with a DJ accompanied by a saxophonist and violinist.

Wedding Functions
Haldi
Framed by the serene backdrop of the lake, the Haldi was hosted amidst the lush greenery of the Guava Garden. The traditional yellow decor was given a chic modern update with the inclusion of white-and-blue linen and tons of Italian lemons. From being added to the table arrangements and floral setups to being hung from the trees in little jars, the lemons added a refreshing and unique touch. Dressed in shades of yellow, the couple looked radiant as their loved ones anointed them with turmeric and showered them with love and blessings.
The ceremony was followed by a spirited game of cricket played by the groom and bride’s families, making for a truly memorable morning.

Cocktail
The Sangeet was imagined as a decadent Sufi Night, brimming with the opulence and charm of gilded elements, crystals, candles, glass votives, antique chandeliers, and the richness of red roses. Set with a canopy of branches, roses, and stunning chandeliers, the stage offered a magical backdrop to the evening’s performances and entertainment.

Wedding
Hosted in the outer courtyard by the lake, the wedding conjured up an image of pure opulence and royalty. The mandap and other decor structures were imagined with traditional palatial designs and architecture to provide a seamless harmony with the hotel’s ornate facade. Rich arrangements of red roses looked strikingly beautiful against the white decor palette. The groom arrived in a vintage red Rolls Royce, while the bride made her entrance on a personalized track beneath a stunning canopy adorned with pearls and red flowers. Dressed in red and white, the couple looked transcendent as they took their vows.

Reception
The celebrations transitioned into an evening of elegance and sophistication for the formal Reception. A palette of white offered a classic backdrop sumptuously decorated with flowers in a perfect blend of modernity and tradition. The bride dazzled in a white lehenga for the occasion while the groom sported a white and black tuxedo. The evening saw heartfelt speeches and toasts from the family members as everyone came together in celebration of the newlyweds.
