One thing is for sure- Morning Brunches are only the most awesome things to happen to Indian weddings since DDLJ . The brunch-mehendi in Yej Jawaani Hai Deewani was so gorgeous, Im sure its inspired a whole lot of Indian households to go the morning -function route. It photographs better, its more laid back and you can have a ball sipping on margaritas and finger food. This beautiful wedding in Mahabaleshwar for example had a "Champagne and Pearls" brunch engagement featuring a glittering gold bride, tons of crazy props and elegant decor that just set off the Mahabaleshwar backdrop perfectly, captured through Photosynthesis by Aditi's lens!
Meet Monu & Bharath
They met in a typical Bollywood setting- at a common friends wedding ! Little did Bharath know, that when his sister urged him to suit up for the wedding because of all the pretty girls that were going to be there, that he would find his life partner !The Engagement- Brunch
Omg, so much fun all those crazy props !!! The girls with the moustaches...LOL
The wedding
From the bride: "I always wanted a destination wedding & as summers are crazy in Nagpur so my father suggested mahabaleshwar and after some research we chanced upon- Brightland which was the perfect place,amazing resort, mind blowing food and very friendly n cooperative owners Mr Vijay n Mrs Sheela . We had 3 months of courtship and my entire family went crazyyy planning this wedding.. From morning 9 to 4am next morning we were on calls with decorators and event planners.. It was crazyyy but fun planning the entire wedding.. The main event was the champagne brunch that I planned as it was a Marwadi wedding I wanted to do something different from the regular customs . So the welcome lunch was a theme of pastels n pearls with champagne where me n Bharath exchanged rings . But the highlight of my wedding was the sangeet n musical evening where my entire family danced. We had Vishal kothari and Abhinanda sarkar , along with Mahesh Mundes dance troupe perform. As far as my style was concerned- the champagne brunch outfit was a golden gown as the theme was pastels n pearls (Vendor details at the bottom). My bridal Lehenga was blue velvet embroidery with gold gota and kundan work The two people whose work really impressed me was my photographer Aditi's team and my makeup artist Bianca along with my Haistylist Sanjana. As much as I like Aditis photography, what I like more is her never ending will to snap pictures with a big smile. In a jittery situation you need someone like Aditi , and her team to calm you down!!" [handbook] Gyans Trousseau Wear & Photosynthesis by Aditi are members of the Wed Me Good Handbook.
