Forest Hill Resort, Chandigarh: A Big Fat Punjabi Wedding

Doesn’t everyone love a big fat Punjabi wedding? We were lucky enough to experience one such grand affair as the seven year college romance of Nitisha and Yuvraj reached its destination at a lavish ceremony at the Forest Hill Golf and Country Club Resort, Chandigarh. Punjabis surely know how to have fun and when they throw a party you know you are in for a memorable time.

Right from the day they started planning the wedding, her family wanted to make sure that every person who joined them would thoroughly enjoy themselves. Design Sutra, New Delhi helped them in planning the affair. Bright hues and sophisticated undertones dominated the choice of décor at the venue which perfectly resonated with the bride’s own classy and chic minimalist style. It looked like a wedding set from some Bollywood movie. The pre-wedding festivities like the mehendi and sangeet ceremony took place at the Hyatt Regency, Chandigarh. The intricate and detailed mehendi applied by Alankritaa from Rashi adorned the bride’s perfectly manicured hands. The sangeet is the highlight of Punjabi weddings. With all the naach gaana and performances, we couldn’t help but tap our feet to the peppy numbers. Punjabis love their food and alcohol. The event was not only a sight for the sore eye but also a treat for the taste buds! What good food :D

Nitisha’s impeccable sense of style also reflected in every outfit she wore (courtesy Bombay selections, Patiala; Saachi, Jaipur; Devnaagri, New Delhi and Swati Ubroi, Jaipur). They were vibrant with minimal bling. Something she wouldn’t be shy repeating in the years to come. Nitisha says that her mother is her ultimate stylist and we sure agree that when it comes to choosing the right thing to wear, Mumma knows best! The jewelry sets were stunning and the makeup minimal yet spot on. Looking ravishing in the gorgeous wedding lehenga she looked nothing short of a real-life princess. Doesn’t every girl feel like one on her D’ Day?

The groom looked equally dapper in his outfit and the two complimented each other well. This cute Jodi gave us all the feels. Awww…. A match made in heaven (oops on college campus !) We had a lot of fun on this wedding shoot and it was an affair to remember indeed!
