WELCOME TO UDAIPUR
The wedding party was welcomed in Udaipur at the Shiv Niwas and a welcome dinner was hosted for everyone. Au fond, chilled out evening with good food, dancing, laughter and an opportunity for all to relax and mingle before the real madness began.
The decor was kept very modern and regal with the majority of the focus on lighting! The minimal decor accentuated the already beautiful Shiv Niwas Lawns. Ankit and Ayush looked regal in a red and black ensemble by couturiers Sulakshana Monga & Gaurav Gupta respectively.
Mehendi
Mehendi at the lawns of Shiv Niwas, Udaipur was attunement of colour and culture. The artists and vendors from all across Rajasthan were brought in to make this event truly ecstatic. From Langa Troupe giving classical feel to new Bollywood songs to handmade juttis & potters, Mehendi was a beautiful cultural event. Ayushi wore a beautiful outfit in green, which was her mother’s wedding lehenga redesigned for Ayushi for Mehendi. A flashmob, by the groom side, took the bride side by surprise and Ayushi was floored when Ankit came out dancing to the tunes of Sajan Ji Ghar Aye.
Sangeet
After a day of pop and culture, it was time for Glitz and Glamour, the Sangeet Night. The fun-filled Bollywood Night saw guests in the sparkliest of clothes and most extra Bollywood moves. Jay Bhanushali was the host for the night. Zanana Mahal, Udaipur lit up for the most fun-filled evening and witnessed the epic dance performances by both sides of the family and friends and the highlight of the evening was Ayushi’s dreamy Sangeet performance. Ayushi and Ankit sparkled in Tarun Tahiliani & Shantanu & Nikhil ensembles for the night.
Haldi
Haldi ceremony is all about bright colours and some epic fun with haldi. Ayushi and Ankit Haldi ceremony was no different, with fun between haldi rituals and beautiful Radha Krishna Dance performance. Ayushi looked scintillating in a mirror work yellow outfit accessorized with white floral jewellery from Florenza.
