How & Where Did You Meet?
Mutual friends had introduced us and from the moment we met we knew we were meant for each other!!
 
Which Venue Did You Choose & Why?
We chose Heythrop park for its stunning grounds and amazing rooms and its ability to accommodate all our guests and requirements for the wedding and reception.
 
How did you plan your wedding?

Our wedding couldn't have happened without the hard work of Sonia and Anita of Tania Tapel weddings. We found her advert in Asiana magazine and from the moment we met her we just clicked and knew she could make our wedding dreams a reality!

She was a fountain of inspiration, an ideas bank, a sounding board and a friend and she made our day happen. We would recommend hiring a wedding planner and none other than Tania Tapel without hesitation.

     
 
     
 
     
 
     
What did the bride wear?
For the civil ceremony I wore a chic pink outfit and for the Hindu Wedding a stunningly embroidered red and gold lengha. My bouquet consisted of Cream and Pink Calla lilies and I wore beautiful Christian Dior silver shoes for the civil wedding and gold Gucci shoes for the Indian ceremony. All my jewellery was tailor made by Kyles Collection.
What did the groom wear?
Sarju wore a grey morning suit with a pink waistcoat and cravat to compliment my outfit for the civil ceremony. For the Indian wedding he wore a traditional golden sherwani with a red scarf to match my outfit.
Describe the ceremony. Were there any particularly memorable moments?
We had 100 guests attending the civil ceremony and 200 for the Hindu ceremony. Every moment was memorable and the moment we saw each other for the first time on the big day, it was hard to hold back the tears of happiness.
Tell Us About The Reception?
The evening reception was held at the very same venue, Heyjtrop Park with 280 people in attendance it was fairly intimate. We opted to have 300 candles lighting up the room with gold as our decor and theme colour.
What Kind Of Food Did You Have?
We had a Champagne reception on the patio of Heyhtrop park serving canapés before our guests entered the Ballroom at 6.30pm for the reception dinner, where we table served a 3 course Indian meal. This was followed by cutting a 3 tier wedding cake which matched our theme with white and gold iced shaped roses all over, the most beautiful cake ever, it felt a shame to cut it!
 
What Was Your First Dance?
Amazed by Lonestar, It's how we make each other feel
 
Where Did You Go On Honeymoon?
We went to Thailand and spent 4 days in the madness of Bangkok, and then 12 days in Phuket one of the most incredible and beautiful places in the world. The perfect start to our married life!
