Wedding Planning
With a crystal-clear vision for every function of her wedding at JW Marriott Mumbai Juhu, Sanskriti brought on board the team of Janvi Dave Weddings & Events to plan and design her wedding. Talking about the experience she elaborates, “Right from the first meeting where I shared my ideas and mood boards over a zoom call, Janvi completely absorbed my vision and crafted a spectacular celebration. I was very particular about everything from the decor to the smallest of details, and she meticulously planned all starting from the hampers to collaterals, activities and entertainment whilst adding a personal touch to the whole experience as she went along. Despite being hosted in the same hotel itself, every function had a distinct and unique vibe that transported guests to a whole new world. Needless to say, we were thrilled with the entire experience”.

Every second of the stunning celebrations was captured in all its glory by the renowned team of Israni Photography. The decor was executed by National Decorators. The bride and groom sported a rich designer wedding wardrobe for their functions, while a talented team of hair and makeup artists, that included the renowned Mumbai-based makeup artist Kajol R Paswwan, gave her stunning looks.

Sangeet
Sanskriti’s dream of an enchanted forest-themed function came true with the Sangeet night that was elegantly designed with crystals, chandeliers, warm candlelight, neon signs, gilded props and tons of lush foliage! A long tunnel with a canopy of suspended vines dotted with chandeliers and flanked on both sides by crystal stands led to the glamorous night of music and entertainment. The show-stopping stage continued the forest theme featuring a quirky neon sign that said, ‘Most Alive when in love’, while modern black and white striped elements such as the dance floor, a bar and an illusion photo corner added an edgy twist to the atmosphere.
