1. Plan on the destination: Pick a destination that resonates with your story as a couple. A crucial first step in choosing an exotic destination like a beach, forest or a Palace location is to confirm it has good flight connectivity for your guests, and the time of year you have in mind is suitable. Picking the right venue(s) within that destination is also important; ensure they can accommodate your intended guest count and are flexible enough for the designing of each wedding event. Once you have those checked off, secure your special dates and lock it in advance to start creating your dream wedding!
2. Curate the big as well as the small: While current trends are great to seek inspiration from, make sure that the big and small details of your wedding reflect you and your partner’s personality and union. So, from the invites, to the décor, the menus and cocktails, to the wardrobe, the entertainment, to the thank you gifts– try and create a connection. Blend your cultural traditions with the trends that you like and create a dream wedding with personalised touches where everyone is made to feel welcome and get to know you a little better, at the same time!
3. Entrances and capturing moments: The entry of the bride and the groom at the various functions has to have the hero effect! What time during the event you enter, what you wear and how it looks against the entryway, how the spotlight focuses on you both, what song you make your entry to, all make this the shining moment of every event at your wedding. The goal is to build up the anticipation so the room goes quiet and all the guests are focused on welcoming the bride and groom! Dramatic entrances, and a carefully selected photographer and videographer team is essential for lifelong memories of this celebrity style, dream wedding!
4. Food and entertainment: The most talked about aspects of any wedding are the food and entertainment experiences. Curate the menu thoughtfully to include an optimal mix of new age food but also a healthy dose of comfort and recognisable foods. Draw inspiration from the destination and include regional specials, and also from the cultural influences of the communities that the bride and the groom belong to.
Introduce dramatic flourishes, live counters and elegant pass arounds. Make sure you have bars that serve up a variety of liquors that work for all generations, as well as creative and tasty cocktails and mocktails. Names can be customised to the preferences of the bride & groom. The anchors, emcees and any entertainment you select should be able to rouse the entire, multi-generational audience and therefore has to include a big Bollywood selection. Planning at least one afterparty that requires the attendees to make use of the hangover kits is an absolute MUST! A great DJ, nostalgic supper menu and lots of tequila go a long way in ensuring that an after party is a cracker of an event!

5. Finally– have a great time: Employing a capable and professional wedding planner ensures that the bride, groom and immediate family get to enjoy themselves and don’t have to stress about the wedding one bit. A wedding is about celebrating your love and union, so keep that in mind if things get overwhelming. It is important that you take in every moment and radiate through the ceremony, so leave all the stress and running around to the wedding planning team, and ensure you are paired with a capable “day-off” personal assistant that you and the immediate family have chemistry with! It is a joyful occasion to dance, let loose, and celebrate your love with the people who matter to you most.
