The couple envisioned a celebration that was effortless and easygoing, one where they could relish every moment with their loved ones, and handed the responsibility of orchestrating it to Bhoomi Events and Planners. Not very tied to the idea of traditional ceremonies, they opted instead for a civil wedding ceremony, and kept the rest of the light of their function on rituals, focusing instead on fun and enjoyment, and their vision was executed to perfection by the team. The festivities saw unique concepts and colorful decor tied together with rousing entertainment, made all the more memorable with the charm and wit of Emcee Vishaal Rasquinha.
