Our bride Tina on the proposal:

"Mike proposed to me in Napa . He booked us in a romantic resort for a wine country weekend and as I entered the suite the room was full of hundreds of roses and candles. the was music playing in the background and he got down on his knee and asked me to marry him. The entire hotel staff knew and kept it a surprise from me as we were checking in . He has a special meal prepared for us that evening that was served to us in style by the very pleasant and lovely staff at Kenwood Inn, sonoma!"

On the wedding style:

"I wanted a Indian wedding and also a white wedding as Mike is American. So we did a very grand sangeet reception and an elegant white wedding at the Calistoga Ranch Resort in Calistoga"

On her bridal fashion:

"I spent hours on the internet. 

My wedding gown for the white wedding at calistoga was bought from Vera Wang in San Francisco.

My Sangeet Reception lengha was by SabyaSacchi. I flew to Delhi for all my Indian clothes as my Choora ceremony lengha was by Anita Dongre (new delhi) and my Haldi ceremony Lengha was by Ritu Kumar."
