Tanvi and Arjun, Jaipur
From a ghoomar dance to local cuisine, this wedding saw Tanvi and Arjun's guests enjoying Rajasthan's rich flavors and colorful festivities.
Tanvi and Arjun’s dream of having a royal destination wedding made them head to Jaipur, India’s ‘Pink City’ for their nuptials. From the poolside mehndi to the regal wedding, every moment was captured in evocative frames by WeddingSutra Favorite – Weddings by Knotty Days. The bride shares some highlights from the wedding below.
Wedding Venue
“Since we were keen on having a traditional wedding outside Delhi, Arjun and I booked the JW Marriott Resort and Spa, Jaipur, for its unmatched grandeur, old-world charm, and top-class facilities.”
Wedding Planning
The bride-to-be shares, “WeddingSutra, has been such a savior in our wedding. From hiring our planner, curating our music playlist to the leading photographers’ profile available on the website to choose from, the team helped us pick the best of vendors that fit both our budget and style. Nikhil of Weddings by Knotty Days did a fantastic job of covering our wedding. He understood exactly what we wanted and delivered with utmost dedication and finesse. The photos were edited and delivered on time, and we relived the memories while we were still in the whole #JunGetsTanned mood.”
Wedding Functions
Mehndi
Arjun and Tanvi commenced their wedding celebrations with a Rajasthani themed mehndi ceremony by the poolside. The outdoor space was decorated with leherias and bandhani prints. Guests enjoyed the curated cocktails and Rajasthani cuisine, as well as the warm welcome by dancers who performed the ‘ghoomar’ (a traditional Rajasthani dance form). Tanvi looked like a princess in her beautiful pink and peach lehenga with mirror work by Abhinav Mishra, while Arjun opted for red kurta with a beige jacket.
Cocktail
Their cocktail night started with a breathtaking performance by the couple, followed by their families setting the stage on fire. The venue looked dreamy with a giant LED wedding hashtag, and crystal elements adorned with white flowers replicating a rainfall. Tanvi looked stylish in an indigo lehenga by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, and Arjun matched her look in a navy blue bandhgala and cream trousers by Shantanu & Nikhil.
Haldi
The bride and the groom had separate haldi functions where the Tanvi was a pretty picture in her simple, yellow suit, and Arjun did not mind getting his pastel pink kurta wet and stained as loved ones smeared turmeric paste on him.
Wedding
Their wedding venue was beautifully decorated with red and white blooms which added to the regal ambiance of the environs. Tanvi walked down the aisle dazzling in a pink Anita Dongre lehenga, and Arjun complemented her vibe in his white sherwani.
Reception
The last of the many eventful functions was their stylish reception. Tanvi opted for traditional wear and looked regal in a stunning Banarasi saree, and Arjun matched her vibe in a black suit.
