It's not every day we get to feature an Olympian’s wedding but here we are excited and happy to give you a glimpse into this super chic wedding. Neha Aggarwal was an Olympian who represented India in Table Tennis in Beijing Olympics at the age of 18 in 2008. The ace player got hitched to a businessman and TT player Shubham Sharma from Hyderabad so you will see so many hints at the wedding showcasing their love for the sport. Heck, even the hashtag says #MixedDoublesForever journey! And not just that, there were traditional Thai dancers, TT games overlooking the pool and bride and groom made an entry on an ATV vehicle and at the wedding, a Thai style Palanquin for the bride as she danced her way to a new beginning. The venue, Sheraton Hua Hin was a delight with gorgeous views and stunning rooms while KnotsbyAMP kept it stylish.
Meet Neha & Shubham
"I am an Olympian in Table Tennis and Shubham is a 2008 Commonwealth Youth Games Silver medalist. We have known each other since 2004 during our junior days playing table tennis for India. We were always good friends since then. Once Shubham quit playing, he joined his family business in 2013. After I retired in 2014, I went to NYC for my Masters for 2 years. Once I returned back to India, we decided to take it forward. Both our families happily agreed :) The roka happened on 20th March 2017 and we got married on 9th December 2017" says Neha.

From The Bride:
If you want to have a well organized, hassle-free destination wedding in Thailand, I would surely recommend Pink Palki. We met them twice in Thailand to prepare for the wedding. Their planning and execution was world class. They knew exactly what is to be done at which event keeping in mind everyone's preferences. All our guests were very happy with it. I was glad that all the little details that I wanted at the wedding, Pink Palki gave it life. They are very professional and on top of their game :)
I am not too much into makeup and fashion as I have been a professional athlete all my life. The day I met Paveena, I told her exactly that. She understood my choices well. We discussed all my looks for all functions well in advance. She even helped me decide the accessories and gave me a skincare routine three months before the wedding. In no time we built such a good rapport that before every function, she knew exactly what I wanted and what she would do. I didn't have to bother about anything, literally! She gave me different looks for all functions and made me look my best ever!
The team of Anupam Maurya Photography is a very young and dynamic team with new vibrant and innovative ideas. They did such an amazing job with the pictures, especially the candid moments that they captured. They covered all 3 days very well keeping in mind every small detail. The pictures were also delivered well in time. Their teamwork is also good which is evident in the pictures as all little moments were captured.
