Wedding at Treat Resort, Gholvad

We covered the wedding of Capes India Co-Founder Dhruv Khandwala and it was a stunning affair.
 

Dhruv and Urja’s journey from a chance introduction to a beautiful wedding at Treat Resort Gholvad is a heartwarming tale of love. It all began with Shrey, Dhruv’s younger brother, playing the role of a matchmaker by introducing them.

Urja, seeking career guidance, found herself drawn not only to Dhruv but also to the warmth and charm of his family. The professional collaboration began when Urja decided to join their family business, Mermerize Jewellery & Capes India.

As they worked together on various projects, a bond deeper than professional camaraderie blossomed between Dhruv and Urja. However, like any great love story, an air of uncertainty surrounded the true nature of their feelings. 

Finally, against the backdrop of Treat Resort Gholvad, surrounded by the scenic beauty and the love of their closest ones, Dhruv and Urja exchanged vows and embarked on a new chapter as a married couple.

Their wedding was a celebration of love, commitment, and the culmination of a story that had started with a simple introduction—the wedding festivities comprised of mehendi, sangeet, haldi and wedding. The highlight was our bride Urja opting for an off-white lehenga which made her look dreamy and special in every way.

Check out the photo set, which is vibrant and colourful in every way!

Tarun and Kamakshi were eager to capture the natural beauty of Pawna Lake in their photos, and selecting Zostel Lonavala Plus for their shoot was an obvious choice. This renowned property not only offered a wide array of captivating indoor and outdoor settings but also provided them with a picturesque canvas.

From the lush gardens and towering trees to the lakeside view, We had an abundance of scenic choices.

Prashant & Antara had an amazing wedding under a tree at IIT Bombay

We had a chance to cover Prashant and Antara’s beautiful and colorful wedding in Powai, Mumbai. The first day of the festivities started with a vibrant haldi at Meluha The Fern. We saw very joyous yellow vibes, and no one was spared. The action was soon followed by a flower and water shower, and things turned out to be really epic and crazy. The evening was glitzy and glamorous as our dearest couple entered hand in hand for their sangeet, followed by some singing and dancing. The crowd was enthralled and it was indeed one beautiful evening of catching-ups, get-togethers, and new memories got made, along with cherishing old ones.

The wedding day was a beautiful one, it was a Maharashtrian wedding at IIT Bombay. Antara’s father is the Dean (R&D) of IIT Bombay and heads the mechanical engineering department of IIT Bombay. And therefore, it naturally just fell in their plans to consider IIT Bombay for the wedding. The IIT Bombay campus is a green heaven and nestles among the hills, flanked by Powai and Vihar Lakes. Check out one of the most beautiful weddings we’ve shot overlooking Powai Lake – Jatin & Levina.

The aura at Prashant and Antara’s wedding was magical. The mandap was set under a tree and was spectacular in every way. Antara was excited, getting ready and donning a red kanjeevaram, and looking like a dream. Prashant complemented her in his cream sherwani. The entire day was beautiful, and a rightful reminder of the fact that day weddings are just the best for great photos. They also went out of the conventions, as they had woman priests officiating the wedding. We are thankful to be a part of this stunning occasion.

  • Day 1 – Haldi, Holi, and Mehendi:

The pre-wedding celebrations kicked off with an explosion of colors and joy as Arvind and Keerthi’s families came together at the magnificent Mrugavani Resort, just a short 5-minute drive from Ridhira Retreat. The morning of the first day witnessed a harmonious blend of Haldi, Mehendi, and Holi ceremonies.

It was a beautiful sight to behold and to capture, as everyone reveled in the festive spirit, creating memories that would last a lifetime.

 

 

  • Day 1 – Sangeet:

As the sun set, the energy reached its peak with the much-awaited ring & sangeet ceremony. Mrugavani’s lawn was transformed with twinkling and shimmering fairy lights and spherical lanterns. Friends and family showcased their hidden talents through eye-catching dance performances and melodious musical renditions. Arvind and Keerthi’s romantic duet left everyone awestruck, symbolizing their journey of love. The atmosphere was electric with love, joy, and unbridled enthusiasm, setting the stage for a grand celebration ahead.

We had the absolute pleasure of documenting the mesmerizing wedding of Nikhita & Sreekar. The celebrations occurred at the picturesque Dream Valley Resort, providing an attractive backdrop for all the events. From the vibrant Mehendi ceremony to the heartwarming Haldi rituals, culminating in a captivating reception, every moment was a joy to capture. We’ve always loved covering Telugu weddings and here are some of the best experiences we’ve had: Lavanya & RithvikPriyatham & ManaswiBhagya & Vignesh

Nikhita & Sreekar’s wedding festivities commenced with the brisk and breezy Mehendi ceremony, beautifully adorned with shades of pink. Nikhita’s radiant smile, and intricate henna designs, complemented by her exquisite outfit from Taruni Clothing, and Sreekar’s joyous personality, made for some enchanting shots.

 

 

 

As the sun dipped, the couple and their loved ones came together for an unforgettable Sangeet night. The energy was palpable as everyone danced and celebrated in high spirits. Lavanya Reddy, a talented and enthusiastic dancer, had choreographed eye-catching and show-stopper performances for Nikhita & Sreekar.

 

 

 

Day 2 began with the sacred Haldi ceremony, where the couple, with their families and friends, celebrated in hues of yellow. The infectious atmosphere and aura of a Telugu haldi never fail to amaze us and we got to capture some best candid moments. Following the Haldi event, the traditional Pellikuturu ceremony took place.

 

 

 

Excitement was in the air as everyone prepared for the evening’s main event – the wedding. Against the setting of the earthy Dream Valley resort, the couple exchanged vows in an enthralling ceremony, surrounded by loved ones. The venue was transformed into a place of opulence and romance. The theme of the wedding was as such where conventional met contemporary. The graceful mandap with a green, pink, and white palette made a perfect backdrop for the photos and videos alike. Contrasting to the mandap, Nikhita wore a traditional red-gold saree, dressed as a Telugu-Andhra bride whereas Sreekar was dressed in a white Pattu Veshti and shirt as a Tamil groom. The ethereal ensembles by Kanakavalli brought an air of desi splendor to the occasion. The expert touch of Siro Makeup Studio ensured that Nikhita’s natural beauty shone through effortlessly.

 

 

 

The final day of the celebrations, held at Siara Retreat, was marked by a chic and smart reception, with a live clarinet performance adding a touch of sophistication.

 

We were thrilled to be a part of Nikhita and Sreekar’s alluring wedding journey. The pictures from their wedding truly radiate happiness and grace.
