Favorite wedding moment:

1. The unique Van Gogh wedding of Pondicherry transcended boundaries of culture and art, and the breathtakingly original concept was applauded across the world by major publications and portals.

2. A beguiling backwater wedding at Bekal which won multiple awards at the WeddingSutra Influencer Awards 2020.

Wedding trends they love:

1. Sustainability – Refurbishing fabrics, promoting artisanal work, collaborating with NGOs are the way to go to create sustainable, meaningful experiences. With more and more weddings being intimate, they also get the chance to use distinct, regional resources to make it even more personal, like using Kantha fabric in an Udaipur wedding, Pink Peru-inspired decor for another. They also turned the wedding flowers into Potpourri for the Van Gogh wedding in Pondicherry and handed them out as thank-you gifts.
2. They foresee the trend of intimate weddings, or what they fondly call ‘Minimonies’ continuing for the next year.
3. They love the use of fine, customized furniture over makeshift decor for making settings more intimate and cozy.

Most interesting wedding of 2016-2017: “For Parita & Deepanshu’s wedding at the Udaivilas in Udaipur, we experimented with almost everything unconventional for all functions. The mehndi was all blue and white with lots of pink bougainvillea blooms and a mix of Jaipur blue pottery, Rajasthani motifs as well as a bit of Chinese porcelain. The wedding had a whimsical garden vibe with lots of tuberose garlands strung from trees. As the couple both work in the education field, we used books as centerpieces and recreated a library as the bar backdrop.

Most interesting wedding of 2016-2017: “For a wedding at Silver Arch building’s gardens in Mumbai, the client wanted a rustic touch enhancing the look of the gardens which hosted the mehndi followed by the sangeet.
