A colorful 'Monsoon Wedding' in Goa !

Wish we had images of the invitations in this wedding- they sound amazing . A poem written by the bride, rolled up into a scroll and stuck inside a bottle, served with a boat shaped invite? That is called setting the mood for a Goa wedding really early. This one is  packed with a monsoon bash, a gorgeous looking couple , performances by  the fabulous duo Salim Suleiman and a mehendi event with tons of fun neon colors !!

Meet Surbhi & Prateek

Surbhi and Prateek had a typical arranged marriage. Bio datas were exchanged through a pandit and the meeting was arranged in Bangalore at ITC gardenia. The two hit it off almost instantly and got married within 2 months of the first meeting.

Yellow is such a great outfit color for mehendi, and the neon decor is cuh-yoot !

From the bride: As we just had 2 months to organize everything, it was not possible to be involved at every step but we did whatever best we could. I wanted my wedding invitations to be perfect and as the wedding was in Goa, we did a boat shaped card and a bottle with a scroll inside which had a poem that I had written.

Prateek wanted the theme of the wedding to be "Monsoon wedding" and we used alot of neon colours for the monsoon bash that was organised specially to celebrate the theme. We were both totally involved in the sangeet ceremony. The script and the choreography was very personalised.

I had  a very clear idea about my wedding lehenga and was sure that I wanted a typical red bridal sabhyasachi lehenga and that is what I bought. I styled it with a mix of typical rajasthani and contemporary jewellery

The team of 5 good looking photographers and Videographers made 2 very traditional families so comfortable and made them do crazy stuff that we never thought they were capable of doing. On a personal level they became more like friends than our wedding photographers while keeping their professionalism intact. We are glad that we hired them to shoot the most memorable days of our lives. [handbook] Getting hitched? Don't forget to check out our Vendor Guide for the best wedding vendors!
