A dazzling Shaadi, an Indian wedding reception, in hues of champagne and scarlet. Our new Versailles seating called all attention to the opulent stage. Petals lined the aisle along with cream podiums illuminated by pillar candles. A mix of Western and Eastern traditions combined into a stunning reception.

Green Pink & Yellow Indian Mehndi
A Mehndi is an event held before an Indian wedding ceremony. Mehndi parties are usually held in the week leading up to the actual wedding ceremony and are attended by close friends and relatives who apply Mehndi or Henna to the bride’s body.
In the past, Mehndi parties were only attended by women, and female relatives and friends of the bride will dance to music and play the dholak. Nowadays, Mehndi parties are no longer considered a private affair and have become lavish and elaborate celebrations that are attended by both men and women.
For this event, we worked with a vivid pallet of green, pink, and yellow to adorn the stage. Colorful glass lanterns and petals also embellished each table.
