Our Wedding Story

After getting engaged at the Taj Mahal in June of 2013 we immediately began planning our wedding. We decided to have an engagement party in Nova Scotia, the Hindu Wedding Ceremony in Calgary, and a big reception in Delhi! 

THE ENGAGEMENT PARTY!

For the engagement party we kept it simple (a theme you will notice throughout!) and had a party in my parents backyard in Nova Scotia. As it was fall we went with a fall theme with crisp flowers and plants and plenty of sparkly lights and candles. We were too busy having fun and forgot to take any pictures of the decor! But it was beautiful, earthy, and just perfect!

THE WEDDING!

In the summer of 2014 we had our Wedding Ceremony in Calgary. Again we kept it simple and hosted about 40 guests in our backyard that overlooks the city. We decided to do a DIY Wedding. We did have a decorator set up a gorgeous simple white Mandap and had a caterer serve cocktails and appetizers. We rented a vintage car, rumoured to be once owned by Rod Stewart! The local Punditji who we knew from the temple performed a short and sweet ceremony in both Hindi and English.






THE RECEPTION!

In the Fall of 2014 we had a grand reception in Delhi with 300 guests! The Connaught Hotel hosted and we had a decorator for the event. I wanted a purple/white/gold theme and that's what I got! We had a buffet with traditional North Indian food.
