This article covers “The Yellow Bride,” aka Paven’s awe-inspiring wedding, the decor and the amazing styling, which was planned meticulously by the gorgeous bride. “We went for a Mughal old world charm vibe for the wedding day with tropical greenhouse shots following the wedding. For the reception – went for a more high fashion couture renaissance theme, something out of Bridgeton!” said Paven.

Excited to go see the amazing wedding photoshoot? Well, let’s get some context first. Here’s their classic high school love story.

Their Story

Gopi and Paven were high school sweethearts who met when we were 16. They started talking on Facebook thanks to their common interest in Hockey, which led to her going to watch one of Gopi’s games and a classic movie date. From the beginning, Paven had a gut feeling that this was it.

“I guess my gut was right because almost 10 years later, after graduating high school, going to university together and having full-fledged careers, here we are getting married this summer.  We grew from being dorky teenage kids into somewhat mature adults lol, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! We got married 3 weeks before our 10th anniversary – so our mini-moon celebrated our marriage, our relationship, and a small honeymoon all in one,” added Paven.

Honestly, this classic love story has already warmed our hearts, but their wedding photoshoot just blew our minds with the absolutely jaw-dropping shots.

The Pre Wedding Photoshoot

Paven wore a gorgeous sharara with eccentric patterns and prints true to her persona and paired it with beautiful stone accessories for this absolutely mind-blowing pre-wedding photoshoot. Gopi contrasted her fabulous outfit with a beautifully simplistic grey kurta pyjama. The focus of this shoot of course shifts to the backdrop. In these photos, the couple’s beauty is elevated by the mountains’ blissful and peaceful yet dramatic natural backdrop.

The Mehndi Ceremony Look

The tropical plant, the muted and earthy tones of her gorgeous printed lehenga, the subtle warm makeup and the lovely mandala mehndi give these photos a warm and soft touch. However, the main attraction point of this photoshoot is just the beauty of Paven. Her statuesque, sculpted features, intense eyes, beautiful hair and majestic presence, we can’t take our eyes off the beauty she possesses.

The Wedding Day Photoshoot

We’ve seen brides deviate from the classic red norms, we’ve seen brides wear all sorts of bright and pastel colours, but seldom have we ever seen a bride slay a yellow outfit on her wedding day. Paven dawned a marvellous yellow lehenga with intricate stonework and Gopi wore a beautiful white and gold anarkali sherwani and white jacket with intricate floral embroidery. The couple truly gave us chills with the Mughal-E-Azam vibes, don’t blame us for fangirling!

The Reception Photoshoot

Oh boy, where do we even begin with this one! Reception Photoshoot or a Vogue Photoshoot? We can’t decide, can you? Looking like models straight from a fashion magazine’s front page, Paven gave us a blue and gold suit with unique net details in the neckline and sleeves, finishing it off with a long net train, and Gopi gave us a dapper white suit which brings out his beautifully shaped beard and dark eyes. These photos just scream perfection from the outfits to the poses to the locations to the big blue floral wedding cake. Have a look for yourself.

So that was Paven and Gopi’s wedding, and we don’t think we’ll ever get over this gorgeous couple who gave us just wedding photoshoot goals. Which look was your favourite? Let us know!

Priya And Saksham’s Love Story

Don’t we all dream of that classic College friends turned lovers turned husband and wife kind of love? Well here’s a lucky couple truly living that dream! Introduced by mutual friends, Priya and Sooksham became a part of an extremely warm and close-knit friends group – bunking classes, long drives, lunches, and dinners – the entire squad goals checklist. It all changed on the 16th of November 2013 when Sooksham proposed to Priya, asking her to be his wife. After 8 beautiful years together, they finally tied the knot – in the most glamorous way possible!

Let’s just bask in the glory of these gorgeous photos, shall we?

The Mehendi Ceremony

“We love Italy and it has been one of our favorite destinations,” says bride Priya. And so, the theme for this alluring mehndi ceremony revolved around the beauty of Italy. Priya tried to recreate the gorgeous Amalfi coast theme using all the beautiful shades of blues and yellows for the decor. She dawned a cheery and fun sage green lehenga with floral details and Sooksham wore a white kurta with a blue coat to perfectly match the theme. We definitely feel transported to the balmy breezy coast looking at these pictures!

The Grand Engagement and Sangeet

After the pleasant sunny Mehndi commenced the glamorous Engagement -cum-Sangeet night and BOY is it glamorous! About the engagement ceremony, Priya commented, “Who doesn’t like all things shiny and classy so we went with all things gold and white, with beautiful chandeliers and glitters.” Well, we’ve got to agree with you Priya, we absolutely love the glam. From the floral and fairy light decor to the smoke and fireworks, this ceremony looks straight out of a Bollywood movie, and Priya beautifully contrasts the dark night with her peach and white lehenga. Obsessed.

Haldi Ceremony

The next breezy yet warm morning welcomed the beautiful Haldi ceremony. The ceremony was decorated in classic shades of yellow, white, and gold. By using the classic and simple color palette for the Haldi, the couple and their faces brimming with joy, love and excitement become the center of attraction of the entire ceremony. The adorable haldi cover on their faces and the beautiful flower showers make up for the perfect haldi photoshoot.

The Wedding

Finally, we get to see the flamboyant and luxurious palace-themed wedding! With the contrasts of the soft yet dramatic floral decor and the glamorous fireworks, the decor is a beautiful juxtaposition of different elements which also somehow go together in perfect harmony. For the auspicial and special night, Priya dawned a luxurious maroon lehenga fit for a queen and Sooksham complimented her with a honey-colored sherwani. The couple truly looked royal in their palace-themed wedding and we are extremely thrilled to see glimpses from the start of their happily ever after.

So that was Priya And Saksham’s Gorgeous Multi-Themed Wedding. Did you feel inspired by this Bollywood-esque wedding? because we sure do! Think you had a beautiful wedding too? Get your wedding featured in the real weddings section of our blog, contact us.
