How they Met
The couple shares, “We were set up by our family members and never in a million years did we think, that we would agree to get married in the first meeting itself. But fate had other plans for us as we fell for each other from the first glance itself. Till then, love at first sight seemed like something that was only found in books or movies, but then, all that changed.”

Wedding Venue
With some clear ideas in place, the duo started hunting for a resort at a convenient location for their long guest list. The couple and their parents heard about the Parklane Resort, Dhanbad which was close to their home base in Kolkata which they decided to explore. Sweta shares, “We always wanted a resort for our destination wedding, and we found the perfect venue at the Parklane Resort. Our visit was scheduled when it was still under construction, but the unique pattern of the property caught our attention. With its spacious pool and balcony lined rooms, it ticked all the right boxes.”
