Richa Chopra and Subegh Singh Kukreja’s union in Goa mixed equal parts of glitz, heartfelt moments, and vivid hues. WeddingSutra Favorite – VLW Global designed their nuptials, crafting a series of events that reflected the couple’s contemporary tastes with their insights and creativity.
How They Met
“Our love story began unexpectedly. For years, we barely exchanged more than a polite ‘hi’. But one fateful night, we talked for hours, and everything changed. From that moment, our bond deepened, evolving naturally into a lifelong commitment. There was no grand proposal—just a shared certainty that we were meant to be”, says Richa.
Wedding Planning
“As an inter-caste couple, our journey wasn’t easy. Yet, we held firm in our belief that love knows no boundaries. Over time, our families saw our bond and gave us their blessings, paving the way for our dream wedding.
Our guests called it one of the most beautifully planned weddings they had ever attended. Beyond the stunning décor, VLW Global’s attention to detail left a lasting impression. She even found us a multilingual singer who mesmerized everyone with his performance! From breathtaking moments to heartfelt memories, every detail was flawless. As we said our vows by the ocean, surrounded by loved ones, it felt like a dream come true”, gushed the happy couple.
Wedding Functions
Mehendi
Inspired by Moroccan elements, the mehndi was hosted outdoors as the sun set. The ‘under the stars’ themed evening flaunted a delightful array of earthy tones accentuated by ivory drapes. Exotic lanterns and intricate patterns added a glamorous edge to the setting.
Haldi
Taking the traditional route, the sunlit haldi celebration was swathed in hues of yellow. Sunflowers, ivory furnishings and foliage gave the venue a cheery look. The couple had a gala time as they danced to the beats of the dhol and their loved ones slathered them with turmeric.
Engagement
As evening fell, everyone geared up for a glitzy engagement. The couple shared several heartfelt moments on stage as they exchanged rings and performed a waltz on stage. Lit up by ambient lights and fireworks, the engagement ceremony set everyone in the mood to party.
Wedding
When in Goa, a beachside wedding ceremony is the obvious choice! For their big day, the couple chose to go with a magical beachside ceremony. With a dazzling walkway overlooking the sea and lavender blooms contrasting beautifully against the blue sky – the ceremony looked stunning.
