Aditi and Mital
Serendipity brought Aditi and Mital together. Mital, born and raised in New Jersey, visited Vadodara, Gujarat, in 2011 to play professional cricket and decided to settle there permanently. Aditi was born and raised in Vadodara, and though she had a green card since childhood, decided to give the card up to settle permanently in India. For Aditi, it was love at first sight when she received Mital’s bio-data. The first time they fell in love with each other was over a piece of paper and three sets of pictures.
Once they met, it didn’t take them long to discover how well they got along. The couple clicked instantly as if they were each other’s soulmates. Mital chose Aditi’s birthday to profess his love and went down on his knees, which took Aditi by surprise. She considers it to be her best birthday to date.
For the wedding planner, Aditi didn’t have to look far. Her younger sister, Parita, showcased her event management skills with the brilliant decor at ceremonial events. To add a royal touch to their wedding, the couple chose the Ajit Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Rose and Rajnichanda flowers adorned the stage of the ring ceremony. Around 1000 guests arrived to taste over 100 culinary delights. Chickeen Masala, a Mumbai-based band, were invited to the Mehndi ceremony as entertainers, and the entire event exuded Rajasthani flair in decor of pink, white and gold hues. For the vidhi and haldi, the highlight was the Gujarati Bandhani theme decor and a sitting stage amidst the pool where Aditi and Mital were seated. It was a delight to watch their grandparents dance along with the rest of the family. The aura was filled with laughter, smiles, and happiness.
For the wedding ceremony, a royal-themed mandap was decorated with an abundance of red roses spiraling up the pillars, out into the open sky. Mital made a statement with his royal entry in a 1930 neon orange and white vintage car Pontiac from the King’s collection. Aditi walking down the aisle in a heavenly ‘Phoolon ki chadar’ held by her brothers and uncles. The wedding was so dreamy and gorgeous, everyone was mesmerized as the lovely bride entered. The four day event brought both sides of the family closer, and everyone swears by the fun and entertainment they had.
The reception was held at Suncity Resorts and Club in Vadodara, Gujarat, with over 700 guests in attendance. Music from Bollywood to Hip Hop filled the air. Aditi, being a skilled dancer, performed three dances, for her parents, Mital and her in-laws. And just like that, Aditi and Mital became two halves of the same soul together on their journey ahead.

Trupti and Patrick
Trust, mutual respect, compassion and a deep love of Star Wars are the cornerstones of Trupti and Patrick’s relationship. They met in July 2012 and quickly bonded over stories and trivia about Star Wars lore. Despite their diametrically different backgrounds and cultures, Trupti and Patrick became compatible due to their respect and appreciation for their differences and each other’s cultures.
The next step became apparent with the couple adopted a puppy together. Being parents to the adorable but more-than-a handful puppy in their lives made them realize the resilience and stability of their relationship. So, in a modest kitchen, over a sink, Trupti and Patrick proposed to each other. No drama, no kneeling, and no ring, just an honest, heartfelt vow to love and cherish each other for the rest of their lives.
Trupti and Patrick chose to seek the help of a wedding planner to coordinate their “East meets West” inspired wedding. Trupti and Patrick’s wedding celebrated both their cultures with a mehndi party for the women and a rehearsal dinner as well as pre-wedding rituals.
The wedding ceremony featured purple and orange flower decor and a few creative elements from Star Wars. At the Woodmark Hotel in Kirkland, Washington, the groom arrived in a white sherwani. Bollywood songs played in the background, while Trupti mesmerized all in her bridal outfit. As she walked in wearing a beautiful light orange saree, embroidered red veil, and green bangles, Patrick was bowled over by her beauty, charm, and elegance. The duo tied the knot as per the Hindu rituals.
Western pop music played in the background as the first dance kicked off the start of the reception. The newlyweds embraced each other and danced to “All You Need is Love” from the album Love Actually. The happiest day of their life segued from dancing to the cutting of the cake, and a scrumptious dinner. Guests and newlyweds alike celebrated on the dance floor into the evening.

Karishma and Preston
Karishma experienced the most beautiful adrenaline rush of her life when she first talked to Preston in an anatomy dissection group during her first month of medical school. While Karishma delights in Preston’s company wherever they go together, smitten by his gentle, witty nature and dashing looks, Preston took some time before asking her out for a date. Six years into this relationship, their love blossomed into something truly special.
Karishma planned her first trip with Preston to the majestic Olympic National Park. However, she was oblivious to what he had up his sleeve. Meandering through the forest, the two were swept away by breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains, stunning landscapes, sandy beaches, rocky shores, and a tranquil lakeshore. Hiking along the trail, they arrived at Crescent Lake. Mesmerized by the shimmering beauty around them, Karishma’s happiness knew no bounds when Preston made her sit by the shore, played her favorite song, and asked her to marry him.
With Preston and Karishma’s hectic medical careers, they chose to hire a planner to keep everything organized, including tasks such as site visits, cake testing, makeup artist testing, etc. The Haldi ceremony was an intimate affair for friends and family in Fort Lauderdale. Karishma’s Haldi was a blast with scrumptious food on the table and memorable moments.
Karishma and Preston had a church wedding in Preston’s hometown in Indiana. Karishma’s dream wedding led her to a yacht called the Seafair in Miami, an ultimate venue where sea and sky converge. The big day in the couple’s life was decorated with fuschia and orange flowers and little elephants at the entryway. At the Intercontinental Hotel in Miami, the Baraat arrived with the groom dancing to Daler Mehndi’s hits and dance songs. Karishma felt as if she was living a scene straight from a Bollywood movie when she circled seven rounds with Preston around the fire.
Karishma and Preston’s wedding and reception was inclusive of their two different cultures and yet uniquely personal. Like the signature drinks served to the guests by the yacht crew, Preston’s “Set Sail Cocktail” and Karishma’s “Spirit of the Seas.” Karishma and Preston surprised everyone when they performed a duet together – ‘L.O.V.E’ by Nat King Cole. Both families made memorable entrances to the different beats of Bollywood hits, R&B, and pop music. While the song “I’m on a boat” played by the Lonely Island, the newly wed couple was served two signature drinks and they sailed with the view of the skyline as clear as their promising future ahead of them.

Punam and Atit
It took Punam and Atit eleven months to begin dating after first connecting through an online dating website. Punam, a physician in General Surgery and Atit, a manager at ExxonMobil, became close friends after their initial contact online, but had their official first date in Houston at a World Series baseball game months later. Atit’s classy, traditional, and kind values impressed Punam right away.
In May 2018, Atit and Punam explored the picturesque landscapes, castles and beaches of Portugal and Spain together. On one such beautiful day of exploring the outskirts of Sintra amidst violinists serenading them, Atit got down on his knee and proposed. Atit’s beautiful and heartfelt words are forever etched in Punam’s mind as her ‘Yes’ is in Atit’s.
Atit and Punam sought the help of wedding planner Juan Carlos Castillo to coordinate and plan the details of their wedding. They chose Cancun, Mexico, as the destination for their wedding and reception due to the easy accessibility from Atit’s hometown Houston and Punam’s family home in Florida. Juan Castillo’s expertise as a wedding planner ensured that Punam and Atit were able to enjoy the process with weekly conference calls. A couple of quick trips to Mexico by the bride and groom were all that was needed to finalize the menu, venue, and décor.
An outdoor pithi ceremony with vibrant décor and Bollywood music at Punam’s home in Florida was one of the pre-wedding rituals. It gave the wedding guests a chance to meet each other. Their wedding week coincided with Halloween, so the bride and groom along with their guests dressed in costume and partied the night away. On the day of the wedding, Atit and twenty of his close friends rode a yacht and came ashore on jet skis. Atit astride a white horse accompanied by dhol players led the baraat to the ceremony.
Punam’s parents warmly welcomed Atit and escorted him to the mandap. After he was seated, the ring bearers, flower girls, and bridesmaids walked down the aisle. Punam, escorted by her father, looked gorgeous and stole Atit’s breath away as she glided down the aisle.
Atit and Punam made their grand appearance as the newly married couple to Calvin Harris’ “Feels So Good.” After their first dance to Arijit Singh’s “Pal ek pal,” Atit surprised Punam by picking her up in his arms as fireworks exploded in the sky marking their special moment. However, Punam, a trained and accomplished dancer, managed to surprise Atit as well with her solo performance to “Deewani Mastana” making the deeply touched Atit forget the words of his speech.

Ronisha and Vishal
Anything worth having is always worth the wait. For Ronisha and Vishal, their long-distance relationship was a test to see how far love can travel. The virtual world brought them together, but the real world tugged at their heartstrings. The first time Vishal flew out to meet Ronisha, it was a meaningful encounter. The next four-and-a-half-years went by with the two taking many trips back and forth between Orlando and Maryland and proving that when the love is real, distance only matters to the mind, not the heart.
For the proposal, Vishal picked Ronisha up from BWI airport, and on the pretext that it was his birthday, insisted on going to the MGM Casino at the National Harbor. Though Ronisha was too tired to go anywhere, she still accompanied him. Vishal took her to the rooftop of MGM Casino, where the entire area was decorated with blushing flowers and sweet-smelling candles. Without delaying any further, he surrendered his heart and asked for one chance to keep her happy for a lifetime. Their beautiful moments together were perfectly captured by the private photographer Vishal hired.
The couple hired a wedding planner for an elaborate Indian wedding affair. Pre-nuptial events included the Chanla Matli (engagement ceremony), Mehndi, and Garba. From deciding the wedding theme and venue, booking caterers, choosing decorations, sending invitations, and performing traditional rituals, Ronisha and Vishal enjoyed every moment spent together, smiling and appreciating everything.
Ready for their happily-ever-after, Ronisha and Vishal’s wedding took place at the Omni Championsgate, Orlando. The couple went with a romantic vintage glam theme with the bridal party in coral and mint green hues. Vishal arrived for his baraat in a Rolls Royce Dawn with his close friends, fraternity brothers and family members. A local football team that was staying at the Omni Championsgate enthusiastically joined the baraat dancing and enjoying the Bollywood songs that accompanied the baraat. The entire baraat kneeled down for a huddle and exploded into a massive celebration. With old and new Bollywood songs playing along, Ronisha and Vishal’s wedding included swoon-worthy, tear-inducing, and heartfelt moments that melted the hearts of the 450 guests attending.
Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the reception dancing to Bollywood and Hip Hop hits. The newlyweds enjoyed a first dance to “My Heart Will Go On” from the movie Titanic, followed by a mother-son duet to “Pehla Nasha” and a father-daughter duet to “Mere Papa.” Next, the groom surprised the bride with his hot moves along with his friends on the dance floor. As guests headed to their respective tables, two large wood panels read “Travel to your seats,” symbolizing how long-distance can never separate two hearts who care for each other. The guests took home a luggage tag with their names and table numbers as a memento along with a lot of happy and fun-filled memories.
