3. “Of Florals and Art”- Ekta Saigal Lulla, Weddings by Ekta Saigal Lulla
“Florals have always been an integral part of weddings but as the wedding decor has become larger-than-life, so has the floral design. Artistically structured florals are the latest trend this wedding season. Huge floral structures in the form of visual blocks or centerpieces cater to the attention of guests. Use of foliage on bars and side stages give a unique ‘cutting edge’ feel to the overall ambiance. For the mehndi decor, people are now keen on pastels, garden, and vintage themes. Sangeet is no longer limited to huge sets or Bollywood styles and Buddha bars but is trending more towards international themes and feel”

4. “A Theatrical Fiesta”- Devki Hemlani, I Do Etc.
“The best way to execute a wedding is to customize details to tell the couple’s love story. We’ve incorporated elements from entire cities or countries that the couple holds dear so when they’re looking back, they can reminisce the fond memories associated with these. For one couple, we created a very traditional mandap with a traditional royal aesthetic. For another, we produced a theatrical fiesta, a stage worthy of an awards night and a Hollywood themed welcome dinner décor setup.”

5. “Vintage Tales” – Sandeep Soi, EMC Decor
“Vintage concepts and origami décor are trending this season. As we specialise in wedding décor, we always suggest traditional elements for functions where clients prefer an elegant setup. Sangeet and pool parties is where most artistic décor is incorporated and we recreate a part of a country/setting into it. It also gives it a great indo western vibe.”

6. “Larger than life Aesthetics”- Sharan Hora, Ravina Sawhney and Ruchika Pawa, Pink Palki
“Indian weddings have so many back to back events, thus each one should be different from the next, in terms of look, feel, and overall coloring. Currently the trend for mehndis include a lot of fun, quirky hanging elements such as dreamcatchers, pinwheels, paper flowers & origami, moving away from the traditional marigolds and kaleeras. On the other hand, wedding décor remains quite traditional, with current brides opting for more pastel color palates and floral mandaps. Lightbulbs, lanterns & fairy lights, with a play on lighting, are still all the rage for welcome dinners and ballroom functions.”
