Top tips for a trendy wedding 2017

Whether one is tying the knot with their long term sweetheart, or met their soulmate through mutual friends or family members, there is no doubt that every single modern love story is unique. And this is why, each wedding has its own set of specialties.

For starters, weddings are now an elaborate series of events that reunites families and friends. Bengalis love a good feast, and this is why the modern wedding consists of a pre-engagement shoot, engagement, holud, mehendi, "rong khela", bridal shower, bachelor's party, and finally the wedding reception.

The modern wedding has its own superman or event planners as they are called. Thanks to their services, your dream wedding is now a reality without you having to turn into a bridezilla.

Preparations for weddings can take years. Your extensive research will include spending hours scouring the cyberspace for ideas. And then there are venue bookings which need to be finalised a year ahead.

The idea of the pre-engagement shoot is to allow couples to have exquisite shots to look back upon. Ideally, one picks a theme around which the photographer works.

Each and every event is now themed. From Mughal inspired to modern contemporary vibes, the options are endless.

Enter the bridal showers, mehendi parties, bachelor parties, and colour fests where you can let loose and have fun with your buddies or gal pals (or both!) one last time. These will be the perfect breather to appreciate just how lucky you are to have so many loved ones celebrating your special moments!
