Mayor Ramanathan Chettiar Centre

Venues

We were hosting a very traditional wedding and wanted a big space that could all our guests but be very centrally located & have some exceptional facilities for parking. So MRC was a natural choice.

Venues

wonderful heritage property where we had our engagement! Highly recommend to brides who want an older part of Madras to be part of their day, but also have 5-star service.

Venues

we hosted an evening of performance by Benny Dayal & dancing for close friends & family. My in-laws led the prep entirely for this event & the management was so helpful in making their wishes come true.

Decorators

He came most recommended with the venue & so we trusted him to give us a traditional yet minimalist look.

Bridal Makeup

Sringa is a dear friend from Papreeka collaborations. We know each other since she started her career as a Make-up artist through instagram. She helped me achieve every bit of my dream looks for both the muhurtham & the reception. For all the other events, I did my own make up and Jamuna Devraj did my hair!

Bridal Wear

I learnt to love retail through the corridors of this store. Nothing could come between my appreciation for how much this shop has given me in terms of passion. So we picked out my engagement saree here. Here's where you find some original expert saree salesmen from the 80s still sharing stories as they show the magical weaves.

Bridal Wear

Another store I've learnt to love for their ability to curate & provide customer service. I picked most of my trousseau from here - especially both my muhurtham & reception sarees.

Bridal Wear

I picked a lovely golden twill saree from Raw Mango for my reception to go with a gorgeous blouse that I had already made. I can see myself re-wearing this saree many times!

Bridal Wear

Swathi and her team did a wonderful job of creating my wedding blouses to the brief - to keep it elegant and simple. Yet, they pushed me to look bridal enough while providing some timeless design & workmanship.

Jewellery

I enjoyed shopping here. My parents have been visiting Tanishq for many many years now. My dad being a big believer in high quality & getting the best possible service enjoys the collection & customer service here compared to other jewelry shops in Madras.

Jewellery

We honestly never thought to step into VBJ until I wanted some unique designs and a close friend suggested I go here. I got my reception choker an heirloom worthy piece from the jewelers here.

Jewellery

I wanted a part of the handmade stories from Papreeka to feature in the wedding. So I got a cute red rose bud ghaghra from here for my hair for one of the events & a brooch doubled up as my hair accessory for the muhurtham.

Jewellery

I've been a huge fan of how Suhani Pittie has carried the brand through the years & found a gorgeous collection that I wanted to own a piece of. I got a unique choker & earring set from them.
