When it comes to unforgettable destination weddings, Richa & Vivek's celebration at the luxurious Hard Rock Los Cabos sets the bar sky-high. This Indian wedding was the perfect fusion of vibrant tradition and beachfront elegance. With show-stopping fashion, flawless design, and heartfelt moments captured in cinematic brilliance, every detail of this multi-day celebration was made for the spotlight—and trust us, it delivered.
Let's rewind a moment to the couple's seaside ceremony. Picture this—Vivek, the dapper dulha, making his grand entrance to the beat of dhols, surrounded by cheers, sand, and just a little swagger. And then came Richa, resplendent in her intricately embroidered bridal outfit (the kind of ensemble that deserves its own Instagram page), walking down an aisle kissed by ocean breeze and lined with florals by Zuniga Deco Cancun, Falling in Love Cabo, and Emporio Arte Floral. The setup was so picturesque that guests wondered if they'd stumbled onto a movie set. (Spoiler: they had.)
Styling Trio worked their beauty magic on Richa, creating a timeless and flawless bridal look. Think bold eyes, radiant glow, and hair that doesn't wilt in the Mexican heat—an achievement worthy of applause and a standing ovation from every humidity-fighting bride-to-be. As for the mehndi, Lemons and Mehndi stole the show with intricate designs that danced across Richa's hands like lacework. Add to that a perfectly curated playlist and energy from DJ Mixu Patel, and this was not just a wedding—it was a vibe. But if we're talking show-stopping moments, the reception brought the house down. Under twinkling lights and pulsing beats, Vivek surprised everyone with a choreographed performance that left jaws on the floor and his groomsmen gasping for water. Toasts turned into roasts (loving ones, of course), and the dance floor—powered by Inspire Mexico's top-tier AV—became the scene of epic moves and one emotional auntie dance solo that no one will ever forget.
Now, let's talk Wynn Films—because no wedding this epic is complete without someone capturing it in all its glory. From sweeping aerial shots to intimate close-ups, their cinematography didn't just record the day—it told the story. Every laugh, tear, and stolen glance was caught with such precision and beauty that it felt like watching a Bollywood-meets-Hollywood love story come to life. They turned a beautiful wedding into an unforgettable visual experience, weaving light, sound, and emotion into every frame. Their film doesn't just make you feel like you were there—it makes you wish you never had to leave. Of course, none of this would've been possible without Korto Photography, who froze each perfect moment in time—yes, even Uncle's wild dance move during the reception. With an eye for candids and a knack for catching the golden hour just right, the photos practically glow with joy.

How did you meet your Groom and when did you know he was "the one"?
We met our freshman year of high school - just two teenagers who had no idea what the future held! What started as a simple friendship turned into something so much more. Over the years, as we grew and changed, one thing stayed the same: we were always each other’s best friends.
There wasn’t a single moment where I suddenly knew he was "the one", it was a feeling that built over time. We just get each other. It became so clear that we were the same kind of person, and that no matter what life threw at us, we’d face it side by side. Falling in love with your best friend is the most natural thing in the world, and that’s exactly what happened.
Share the scoop on your Proposal Story!
I’ve known this man for so long and so well that pulling off a surprise is nearly impossible. So, to throw me off, he planned a whirlwind trip through four states. I had no idea where or when it was going to happen, and that was exactly his plan.
Our first stop was Denver, one of my favorite cities to visit, so naturally, I thought maybe this was it, but nope. Then we flew to Salt Lake City, and again, nothing! By now, I was completely thrown off. The next morning, we took a scenic drive to the Grand Tetons in Wyoming, which had always been a dream destination for us. Surrounded by mountains, fresh air, and total peace, that’s where he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. It was absolutely perfect! The next day, we flew to Las Vegas to celebrate. From serene mountains to bright lights, it was a journey I’ll never forget. The best part is that it ended with my best friend asking me to be his forever.
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.
Planning our wedding was definitely a challenge, especially since we made the decision not to hire a wedding planner. We felt confident that, with the support and advice of close family and friends who had already been through the process, we could take on the planning ourselves. While it wasn’t easy, we were incredibly fortunate to have chosen Hard Rock Hotel Los Cabos as our venue. The wedding coordinators and vendors there were truly amazing - attentive, responsive, and always willing to help. They guided us every step of the way, offering thoughtful suggestions to help us stay within our budget while still creating the wedding of our dreams. Their professionalism and support played a huge role in making our weekend unforgettable. From hair and makeup to decor, everything came together beautifully thanks to their help and our combined efforts.
Was there a really special moment in your wedding that constantly replays in your mind?
Honestly, it’s so hard to pick just one moment because every single moment from that weekend felt so special. But if I had to choose, it would be seeing how truly happy our family and friends were the entire time. The smiles on everyone’s faces, the laughter, and the pure joy. As a couple, we were able to have the time of our lives surrounded by the people we love the most.
I truly feel like nothing could match that weekend for us. It was magical, and I’m so grateful for every single second of it.
Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
My biggest piece of advice would be to enjoy every single moment. You’ll spend months planning for a weekend that goes by so quickly, so make sure you savor it. Take the time to celebrate with each of your guests and loved ones, they’ve all made the effort to be there for you, and those moments of connection are what make the day so special.
Also, let the small things go. There will always be little details that don’t go as planned, and honestly, your guests won’t even notice the things you think went wrong. You’re the only one who’ll know, so don’t stress. The most important thing is to be present and enjoy the love that surrounds you!
A dreamy destination, heartfelt moments, and a whole lot of joy—Richa & Vivek nailed it.
