Jab Krupa Met Ruchit

Every once in a while, you come across a love story that overpowers all other childhood affairs. Such is the story of our lovely couple. Ruchit and Krupa have been friends forever. But, they never knew that this crushing over each other would turn into a lifelong journey bound together. Krupa tells us about how they came across the right moment where they thought that they were meant for each other. From growing up together to studying together they grew organically fond of each other. It was in Berkeley, London where Ruchit asked her out and Krupa couldn’t say a no to the dreamy marriage proposal. What a gratifying moment it must have been! That was the moment when they planned their miraculous Abu Dhabi Wedding which we’ll take you through.

Why the Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi?

Ruchit and Krupa wanted a fusion of both the beach and the regal palace wedding. So, they wanted their family and guests to experience an international wedding of its kind. The grand Emirates Palace hotel with its Arabic theme, hierarchical emphasis, and the best 5-star services created their wholesome wedding.

The gala started with the “Bohemian Mehendi Souk” a modern take on the Indian bridal Mehendi ceremony abundant with colors of love and happiness. Krupa’s Mehendi ceremony dress by Sabyasachi
was a wonderful jewel in itself. Her floral green lehenga with coral choli & golden gotta patti lace was color coordinated by Ruchit’s Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla kurta set. 

Amid the blossomy and fresh flower decoration, the guests dined together with appetizing food, fresh drinks, and the exclusive Turkish ice cream. The best part of the event was the photo booth where the guests could get their pictures clicked with the hunting falcons.

The Classical Umrao Night
