East Northport, NY Indian Wedding by WSS Weddings

Sanjanaa & Shreyas's love story began at work, where Shreyas showed the "new girl" around the facility. Despite his best efforts to charm her, no contact information was exchanged. But fate had other plans. A few weeks later, at a work happy hour, Sanjanaa found the seat next to Shreyas, and from there, their journey took off. We'll never know whether it was the only seat available or a matter of choice—but their connection blossomed into a beautiful relationship filled with laughter, love, and shared adventures.

Sanjanaa & Shreyas knew their wedding would be unique from the start. As one of the first weddings on both sides of the family, they wanted to set a tone that reflected their personalities. Breaking away from tradition, they created a week of personalized events that had their guests engaged and entertained. From a Haldi ceremony filled with games to a wellness station at the Sangeet, their wedding wasn't just about rituals—it was about creating unforgettable memories. The brunch-time Sangeet gave guests time to relax, and each event felt intimate and thoughtful, with personalized touches that made everyone feel special.

For Sanjanaa and Shreyas, the heart of their wedding was in the details. They handwrote personalized notes for each guest on the back of the reception menu cards and crafted a wedding program that included fun facts about their family and guests. Their reception was memorable, starting with a surprise entrance and a champagne tower pour that kicked off the celebrations with a bang. Each table setting featured a fun fact about the couple, encouraging guests to learn more about them throughout the night. Their efforts to make every guest feel involved and appreciated didn't go unnoticed, and it became one of the most cherished aspects of their wedding.

Sanjanaa always dreamed of an outdoor garden wedding, and when they found their Tuscan-inspired venue with delicate blue florals, it felt perfect. However, on the day of the ceremony, rain threatened to dampen their plans. With umbrellas at the ready and prayers for clear skies, Shreyas's baarat danced through the rain, bringing energy and excitement. But as Sanjanaa entered, escorted by her parents, the sun broke through the clouds, shining down on her at the perfect moment. It was a magical experience that gave everyone goosebumps and reaffirmed that everything happens for a reason.

As a family of food lovers, Sanjanaa & Shreyas ensured their guests were treated to a culinary experience they would remember. They brought in four different food vendors to highlight various regions of India and beyond, ensuring there was something for everyone. From traditional Indian cuisine to international flavors, the food became a wedding highlight, with guests raving about the variety and quality at every event.

Sanjanaa's advice for future brides? "There are no rules to wedding planning; make it your own and do what makes you happy."

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
Sanjana was the "new girl" at work, and Shreyas was asked to give her a tour of the facility. Shreyas turned on the charm but to no avail. It is safe to say no digits or an Instagram handle was secured that day. Cut to 2 weeks later, at a work happy hour, Shreyas hears someone say, "Is this seat taken?" Now this is a point of debate we will never know the answer to... Sanjanaa swears that was the only seat available. Shreyas could have sworn there were multiple seats, but she just chose to find the seat next to him... I guess we'll never know. The rest, as they say, is history.

Tell us how you went about planning your wedding, and your overall experience with the Venues, Hair & Makeup, Outfits, Decor Theme, and all of the other important details.
We got many compliments on our family outfit coordination. I shared a mood board and color scheme for all the events with our family, and they picked out a wardrobe that they liked. The end result was out of this world stunning. The outfits all complimented the bride and groom as well as the decor and made for a beautiful, cohesive element of our wedding.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
Our wedding was one of the first for both sides of our families. It was important for us to set the tone for our wedding early on and create a really personalized and memorable experience for our nearest and dearest. We shied away from the norms and made our wedding week exactly what we wanted it to be. Our Haldi ceremony wasn't just all about painting the couple with turmeric; we had tons of games to get all of our guests involved and break the ice between the two families. We had a "wellness station' at our sangeet instead of typical favors to show our love for health and wellness as a couple who met in California. We curated gifts like herbal tea, personalized essential oil candles, face masks, and Indian-inspired hair ties for our guests to pick out from and make a goodie bag. Non-traditionally, we also had a Brunch-time sangeet so that our guests would have time to rest before the next day of festivities. During our ceremony, it was important for us that all of our guests could follow along for our Hindu Telugu wedding. In addition to a detailed personal program, we also had our priest explain the significance of each ritual in the ceremony while also involving the guests. The wedding program included fun facts about our family and extended guests, like stats about where the guests traveled from and who rsvp'd first. The reception was a night to remember, we hand wrote a personalized note to all of our guests as a gesture of gratitude on the back of our menu cards. We also did a surprise entrance at our cocktail hour to surprise everyone. We also used it as an opportunity to spend more time with our guests, and we started off the evening with a bang and a champagne tower pour. Each table setting had a fun fact about us, and it was warm to see that so many guests made their rounds to learn all the facts about us. The heart and detail that went into planning our wedding were evident, and it's touching to hear that everyone noticed and appreciated the little things.

Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
It was a dream of mine to have an outdoor garden wedding. Our venue has a gorgeous Tuscan-inspired garden and was set up with dreamy, delicate florals in lovely shades of blue to complement our family and bridal party wardrobe. The entire week of our wedding was sunny and perfect weather, but the day of our ceremony showed a chance of rain. We went with our gut and decided to proceed with the outdoor ceremony because the space was so special to us from the moment we laid our eyes on it. Everyone was praying for no rain, and our relatives had all gone out to buy umbrellas just in case. It rained during Shreyas' baarat, but it was no rival to the energy he brought out in our guests. I nervously waited in my bridal suite for my bridal entrance and looked out the window at the beautiful yet gloomy day. As I made the first few steps down the aisle with both my parents escorting me, the sun miraculously came out and beamed down at me. It gave everyone goosebumps. It has taught me that everything is always meant to be. My heart knows that Shreyas combatted the rain during his baarat so his bride could have her dream entrance.

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
There are no rules to a wedding plan; make it your own and do what makes you happy.

Anything else you want to tell us? We'd love to hear all about your other details! (jewelry, mehndi, venue, cake, bouquets, etc.)
As a family full of foodies, it was important for us to have a wide variety of foods and cuisine during our wedding week. This led to us having four different food vendors for the festivities so we could highlight different regions of India and beyond. The guests raved about all the food that we picked out, and it was definitely a highlight of the wedding.
