About The Wedding
Our wedding took place on February 25, 2024. Planning our wedding while living in Seattle was challenging, but we embraced it as a joint effort. To support local businesses, we partnered with Indian vendors and women entrepreneurs, ensuring every detail reflected our values.
Since our favorite memories revolve around water and sunsets, we dreamed of a beachside wedding with the sun setting as our backdrop. The stunning W Hotel in Dubai became our perfect destination, blending modernity with grandeur.
We customized rituals to emphasize equality—replacing kanyadaan with a kanya and var milan ceremony, and updating the phera chants to reflect mutual respect. Skipping the traditional vidaai, we ended with a joyful after-party, celebrating our union as equals. It was more than a wedding—it was a testament to love, culture, and equal partnership.
WedMeGood was a complete lifesaver for my wedding planning! I discovered some incredible vendors through the app who perfectly fit my budget and delivered exactly what I envisioned. The vendor reviews and ratings made choosing them so easy and stress-free. The app also became my go-to for unique decor and outfit ideas. From real wedding photos to featured celebrity trends, the inspiration I found helped make my wedding decor just the way I imagined. I even finalized my bridal looks using the outfit ideas I discovered, which perfectly matched the vibe I wanted. If you’re planning a wedding, WedMeGood is the ultimate one-stop-shop. It made the entire process so much smoother and even more enjoyable!
