– Sep 20, 2021
Flaunting a plethora of vivid themes, this wedding on the very serene and scenic Taj Aravali Resort & Spa, Udaipur, was a three-day saga that included five functions. Planned by WeddingSutra Favorite – The Event Casa who seamlessly orchestrated each event expertly, this wedding was punctuated with joyful family moments where everyone toasted to their recent beginnings. Helming the decor front was WeddingSutra Favorite – Vivaah who simply stunned everyone with their creativity.
Sharing the transient they received from the couple and the way it influenced their creativity as planners, Shobhit Jain from The Event Casa shares, “The couple was keen on having a chic affair that matched their tastes. The bride particularly, had a really unique taste and entrusted us to make each event successful! It was essential for us to exit of the box when it got here to the planning and decor of each event. Each theme and its related elements were discussed and arranged in great detail. In truth, we even pre-planned the type of flowers we might use for each event! It was an exhilarating experience for us and watching all of it unfolding together so perfectly made us feel so grateful.”
Explaining how they went about orchestrating the functions with a purpose to match the couple’s vision, Ashi Tanwar from The Event Casa recollects, “The bride and groom had complete clarity on how they wanted their wedding to be which was incredibly refreshing. Furthermore, they handed the reigns over to us and trusted every decision we made! With this in mind, we gave their wedding all we had by decoding the couple’s personalities and dealing on making their dream a reality.” The bride goes on to share, “The whole team worked relentlessly and went that extra mile to grasp us and our personalities. They took note of each detail that we wanted and delivered the marriage beautifully.” Also, The Event Casa didn’t just help the couple plan their wedding. In truth, in addition they helped the groom execute a dreamy proposal for his bride. Shobhit shares, “Merely per week before the marriage, the groom requested us to assist him plan a proposal on the venue. Obsessed with the prospect, we crafted a decor that consisted of fairy lights and rose petals, the rose being the bride’s favorite flower! The proposal took place on a scenic balcony and the guarantees that the to-be groom desired to make to his bride were displayed across the aisle. Useless to say, the bride was blown away with this gesture!”
Kicking off the celebrations was a bohemian-themed welcome dinner which was hosted under the starry sky. Ashi shares, “The decor was peppered with shiny lights and included a bonfire that kept everyone warm. A romantic yet rustic color palette was chosen for the occasion and the comfy atmosphere put the guests comfy! White blooms and pampas grass gave a touch of elegance to the dinner, while guests enjoyed the chilly night under the open sky as they nibbled on delicious treats.”
Next got here the Haldi event which was a stunning sea of warm hues! Shobhit shares, “Hosted in a spacious courtyard, the Haldi ceremony was traditional and intimate. An unconventional combination of tuberoses, gold gota tassels and Indian elements was dispersed across the sun kissed lawns. Adding to the wonder were white drapes that swayed within the breeze together with green and golden elements that tied in perfectly with the normal vibe we were aiming for.” The Myraa event was also inspired by tradition as Ashi explains, “Taking a cue from the Shibori tie-dye technique, the event flaunted a royal theme. It also consisted of a luncheon where the guests were in for a visible treat, and in addition they looked upon the combo of prints and patterns that were accentuated by a shocking blue hue. Overall, this was an apt theme for a sunny, fun-filled afternoon.”
After the traditionally themed events, the couple desired to go for a novel theme and The Event Casa was quick to deliver a glitzy tropical-themed sangeet! Shobhit shares, “The sangeet was plush with a touch of caprice. Wildflowers, cane baskets and LED neon signages were combined to create a mood board that was in sync with our bride’s style. She wanted an out-of-the-box sangeet and that is strictly what we gave her!”
For the massive day, no stone was left unturned because the planning team went in full throttle to create a marriage that was nothing lower than a dream! Ashi shares, “The theme we followed for the marriage was ‘pretty in pink’ because the couple had zeroed in on a pink-hued mandap whose pillars were adorned with a wide range of pink blooms. Artfully displayed, pastel pink drapes blended in perfectly with the remaining of the decor to create a romantic atmosphere for the normal Marwari wedding. The bridal entry had everyone emotional and teary eyed where the aisle was full of dry ice and a flower shower so as to add drama. Because the bride and groom reached the platform and faced one another to exchange Varmalas, the entire lawn lit up with cold pyros and it was a show stopping moment!”
Ashi adds, “The marriage was coincidentally on Valentine’s Day and each the bride and groom desired to host a special Valentine’s Day breakfast for all their guests. A chocolate cart with a unusual ‘spin the wheel’ game was brought in during breakfast which resulted in a fun morning. The groom also surprised the bride by having the bridal suite decorated with a sweet message teamed with pastel-hued balloons, flower petals and personalized cupcakes.”
A meticulously planned regal reception dinner gave the three-day celebrations a fitting end. Shobhit shares, “Oversized pink drapes were drawn across the lawn under a starry sky. The rose gold and black palette gave the venue’s spacious and luxurious Mewar Lawns a surreal appear and feel which the guests marveled at. In hindsight, I feel the important thing to our success was a properly curated mood board for every event which was in tandem with what the couple had in mind!”
