Good day, dolls! We are delighted to bring you an insight into Monica & Neil's lovely wedding. This celebration of love was not just elegant but truly faithful to traditional Gujarati weddings. Every small detail contributed to making this event not just classy, but exquisite. Garlands by Kirti and NJP Events & Design designed and executed this life-changing event to perfection, creating a magical and captivating decor that transformed the halls of the Omni Orlando Resort at Champions Gate into a perfect setting for such an important event! The traditional linen colors, combined with the ideal placement of the floral arrangements, were truly amazing! So much beauty could only be overtaken by the looks of our lovely Maharani, who looked ravishing after being pampered by Sumiyah, who took care of her beauty needs. And as if that wasn't enough, Monica's aunt created a fabulous Mehndi that crowned this Maharani's look adding an extra touch of traditional flair to an already flawless look, whereas Gokuls Henna Art helped all the guests with their Mehndi. Truly, this was an amazing ceremony that got captured thanks to the fascinating talent of Sona Photography. It was such an outstanding job that you'll love it! DJ Chirag Entertainment fired up the dance floor and set the musical mood for the different activities that took place during this evening! If you want to relive every detail of this celebration, you cannot miss the gallery that we've prepared for today! Enjoy it!

How did you select your bridal lengha or wedding dress? Did you have a favorite color in mind?
I always knew I wanted to go traditional with my wedding lengha. I love the look of a classic red for an Indian wedding and thankfully found the one!

What was the most enjoyable part of the planning process, and why?
For me, the most enjoyable part of the planning was getting to spend extra quality time with my family. They helped me with all the small details to help planning the larger tasks as well. This time I got to spend with them extra special to me.

What did your guests particularly love about your Wedding?
Since our wedding was the first event after 2 years (due to the pandemic) both sides of our family was extremely excited to see the extended family and have something to celebrate. This made the celebration extra special and seeing all my family again after so long was amazing!

Do you have any words of wisdom for Brides-To-Be?
For any future brides I would say to just enjoy the moment! I know how much planning goes into every event and sometimes things don’t go as planned. Don’t stress about the small things and enjoy this time with your family as that is what you will remember when you look back!

I hope you have enjoyed and loved this story as much as I did. Come back for more inspiring ideas!

Happy Thursday, Maharanis! I hope you are having a lovely week with the utmost happiness. Today, we will return to a gorgeous autumn day for a magnificent view of Shaz Makeup and Mehndi Artist's fascinating work. This remarkable professional always has every Maharani's wishes at the top of her mind when working with them. She conveys such dedication and talent with each sweep of her brushes. The grace and beauty of every detail make her art so unique, particularly for a one-of-a-kind celebration as one's wedding day should be. The shades chosen for this shot played seamlessly together. From a bold red and golden to a soft white, each color served to bring out the masterpiece Shaz did with the mehndi. The minimalistic scenery and aesthetic backgrounds were the perfect matches for the stylish attires. I am completely head over heels with the divine lengha! The glistening details were the icing on the cake of this stunning photoshoot, highlighting the magnificent look and carefully done hairstyle we can see on Nikkie Bhatt.  The absolute bliss and charm each frame transmits could only be achieved by the accomplished DreamyPix Photography behind the lenses. Making the most out of the gentle fall sunshine and the exquisite tones it created, the photographer exceeded all expectations. Each picture captured a fantastic feeling of elegance. The results are exceptional! I know their remarkable work will dazzle more than one and bring much-needed creativity to every Maharani's day! So dears, here we have a brilliant gallery for you to get imaginative. Wait no more and fall in love with these visual delights!

I hope you got a great dose of inspiration, ladies. Keep coming back for more!

This beautiful wedding incorporates a ton of inspiring ideas for you to start planning your wedding, so let's check it out! We have to say that we adored the soft-colored decor selected for the wedding ceremony held at Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa, as it added an extra touch of glamour and elegance to this long-awaited event. With the picture-perfect landscape and lovely decor crafted by Shea Hopely Flowers, this was the perfect backdrop for Dana & Mithun to say "I do" in front of their family and friends. Our gorgeous Maharani stole the show as she approached the altar donning a glamorous outfit by The White Magnolia Bridal and Maggie Sottero Designs, very well complemented with the exquisite makeup and hairstyle designed by Studio Bride. We also want to give a special shoutout to David's Bridal for taking such good care of Dana's bridesmaids and making them look gorgeous! For the reception, which took place at TPC Sawgrass, all the guests danced the night away to the beats of Legacy Events 119, who turned this celebration into a party and put everyone on their feet. It was the perfect way to bring the wedding celebration to an end! If you don't want to miss any detail of this marvelous, visit today's gallery. We are sure you are going to love every perfect detail!
