What three adjectives best describe your wedding day?<\/b> Warm, vibrant, and blessed<\/i><\/p>\n

Was there a decor theme that ran through your wedding? What was the inspiration for that particular idea and how did it reflect you as a couple?<\/b> Our goal was to have a traditional wedding that honored both of our families and heritages, so we kept it simple. We chose a beautiful venue and worked with a great design studio to highlight the garden where we had our Hindu ceremony. We carried the bright colors of the garden into the reception arrangements and used highlights of gold.<\/i><\/p>\n

What were some of the different ways you used decor elements to create the beautiful, cohesive event you were envisioning?<\/b> We wanted a traditional garden feel with an Indian twist. I chose to wear Indian style clothing for the Hindu ceremony and to my surprise, my family followed suit (and had great fun doing it). Overall, we used gold and pink\/red to keep with traditional Hindu wedding colors. <\/i><\/p>\n

Where did you choose to hold your wedding, and how did the location influence your decor decisions?<\/b> We chose an amazing old mansion with a beautiful garden. The venue had a lot of character – from the blooming flowers in the garden to the marble hall where the reception was held. We tried to set off the venue by choosing bright flowers and antique-style accents. <\/i><\/p>\n

Looking back, do you have a favorite project or successful decor idea from your wedding? Tell us what you loved about it!<\/b> We needed customized programs for our Hindu ceremony so I made them myself. The finished product was a Zine — one page on which I formatted doodles and explanations of the ceremony parts. I then folded the page into a mini-booklet. It was useful, cute and environmentally friendly too. <\/i><\/p>\n
