LAVISH DULHAN MAGAZINE www.lavishdulhan.com VOLUME 6, ISSUE 2 Ontario EDITOR-IN-CHIEF & FOUNDER Rohit Sharma • rohit@lavishdulhan.com

Hello Beauties, Welcome to the new edition of Lavish Dulhan. While 2018 promises to be full of exciting new trends and we can’t wait to see all of your incredible weddings, we wanted to take a minute as we approach the end of 2017 to thank all of our readers and partners for another fabulous year!

From the talented creatives who craft our stunning content, to our incredible in-house team who puts it all together, to all of you who purchase the magazine and follow us on social media – you are all part of our success, and we are grateful for you!

The theme for this edition is fusion, since Lavish Dulhan is all about the modern bride, we played with creating contemporary content with a traditional spin in every feature of the magazine from the fashion shoots to the syle shoots.

We have three gorgeous fashion shoots in this edition, including one with a very unique feel that was shot at the Hard Rock Hotel in the Mayan Riviera, Mexico. A little edgy, a little sexy with the gorgeous hotel as the backdrop. For the full feature visit page 210.

Our Chic & Unique feature is the area we have the most fun with in the magazine. In each edition we bring together an elite team of vendor partners to create style shoots that are not only beautiful and luxurious, but also fresh, often featuring unexpected details that put them in a league of their own. In this edition, we feature a wide variety of styles – from a sunny oceanside setup to a vintage sexy lounge to an ethereal dreamscape – with plenty of tablescapes, cakes, florals, stationery and other elements to serve as both eyecandy and inspiration.

And of course, there are the ever popular real weddings, where we share newlyweds’ unique stories and the experiences that made their wedding day perfect. In this edition, we are excited to give you a glimpse into the world of eight beautiful couples on one of the best days of their lives. Whether traditional, modern or fusion, we hope their weddings inspire you!

For more inspiration, make sure you save the date for the 5th annual Lavish Dulhan Wedding Show taking place January 7th, 2018. The show will be returning to the beautiful Liberty Grand in Toronto, and is always a memorable experience. If you aren’t already, follow us on Instagram (@lavishdulhan) for all the details.

We wish all our Dulhans an inspirational 2018 – may all your wedding fantasies come true!

Happy Planning!

The Lavish Dulhan Team

Bright gold and touches of pink pair beautifully with the stark white used for the semi-gloss floor, tone-on-tone architectural details and flowing drapery.

Real couples share their stories to peak your imagination and inspire you to think outside the box.

The ceremony took place in the pavilion at the newly renovated Guild Inn Estates, among beautifully cultivated gardens full of historical sculptures.The decor was meant to feel like an extension of this outdoor environment, and was inspired by the soft and delicate floral patterns of the 2017 spring Sabyasachi collection.The result was a colour palette of soft creamy white, blush pink and soft greens, and a space filled with soft, flowing fabric, a palki nestled under a canopy hanging with flowers, and an aisle lined with ornate white urns dripping with lush florals. Everyone truly felt like they were seated in a spring garden and walking down that aisle was a magical experience.

157

158

The guests were led across a custom bridge into the venue, which was flanked by elephants welcoming the guests inside. The decor inside the ballroom was inspired by a modern Indian palace, with a royal colour palette of grey, gold and a touch of red. The ornate stage gave a feeling of grandeur, while still feeling current. The set was complemented by a 6’ cake, gorgeous vinyl dance floor, luxurious mirrored family table, elegant table linens and lots of lush flowers. Visual interest was added to the room with different style centerpieces composed of greenery, white and yellow flowers and touches of gold leaves all housed in beautiful vessels of stone, mixed metals and glass and flanked by loads of candles. Extra details like having their custom monogram vinyled on the entrance doors, all the bar surfaces, and the bathroom mirrors; filling the lobby space with helix candles which glowed long into the night; and incorporating show-stopping entry pieces into each space resulted in a truly exquisite event.

A friend in university introduced Punit and Gurmakh to each other when Punit was looking to talk to someone about the Pharmacy School at the University of Toronto, where Gurmakh was enrolled. Initial conversations about the program and its application process evolved into personal conversations about hobbies and interests, and the rest was history.

A group of Punit’s friends wanted to plan a group trip to Ottawa, one of Punit’s favourite cities due to its history and romance, but Punit had recently started a new job and didn’t have any vacation time. A few weeks later, her supervisor came to her and said that the weekend the trip was planned was fully staffed and that she could have the weekend off, so the ladies went on their trip after all. Punit got the surprise of her life when she recognized a familiar face at the end of the dock as they went to board a boat cruise. Happy tears rolled down her face as she approached Gurmakh, who was holding a bouquet of beautiful red roses. He delivered a perfect proposal, and revealed that he and her brother had arranged the time off with Punit’s supervisor.

decor:

Have A Seat

The overall theme for their wedding was elegance and simplicity. Punit’s bouquet consisted of lush garden roses, orchids, hints of spray roses, peach roses and fragrantly cascading eucalyptus. The king’s tables were the highlight of the evening, making them feel like they were sitting in a beautiful garden. The florals consisted of blush and neutral-toned garden roses, nude roses with hints of burgundy and cascading greenery. Gold vases gave everything a luxurious look, adding to the elegant, royal and timeless decor they had chosen for their grand reception.

Their reception outfits featured rich purple tones, so they wanted the indoor space to have a bit of a royal touch. They added light purple lighting and chose a minimal backdrop design, adding lots of candles and large floral arrangements to the space, including candles and rose petals on the tables to add a romantic touch.

Showcasing some of their favourite photos and love quotes in gold frames added a personal and intimate touch to the decor.

Manpreet met Inderjeet one afternoon when she stopped by Pickle Barrel to say hello to her friend, who was having lunch with Inderjeet. When she left, Inderjeet asked their friend for her number, and the friend arranged a secret dinner that same evening to set them up.Their friendship turned into a romance in time, and the two began to date.

One Saturday afternoon, Inderjeet had planned an afternoon together, which included a beautiful lunch, a couple’s spa date and a long drive, which led them to a yacht!

Aboard the yacht, a chef cooked them a wonderful dinner, which they enjoyed with a stunning skyline view. After dessert, as they sat on the deck enjoying the calmness of the evening, Inderjeet told Manpreet how much she meant to him, and then dropped to his knee to propose. In that magical moment she, of course, said yes!

Hitesh asked Malina to spend an afternoon together and visit Alexander Muir Gardens. As Malina was looking at the beautiful scenery, Hitesh suddenly suggested they sit down on a bench and pulled out three lottery scratch cards. When the first two cards weren’t winners, Malina wasn’t very optimistic about the third card, titled Diamonds Forever, but when she scratched the prize box, a beautiful message was revealed: “Will you marry me?” Utterly surprised, she looked over to see Hitesh kneeling on the ground with the picture perfect ring in hand. Malina had won the jackpot!

Since Malina is a lover of nature and she wanted the decor to resemble a park, she decided on an enchanted garden theme with a focus on greenery for the reception. She wanted to incorporate trees, leaves, waterfalls and a wooden bench to sit on – something both of them love! – and used a colour palette of dark greens, browns and black to achieve a garden feel.

Keshvi wanted something simple and elegant for her wedding outfit, keeping the focus on the jewellery she had custom designed and made in India. Her lengha featured gorgeous red on red embroidery and she added some contrast with a champagne colour dupatta. For the reception, she wore a trouser and skirt combination that she had commissioned a tailor in London to make.

Vishaal and Keshvi met through mutual friends, while Vishaal was visiting the UK. The two kept in touch through the years, and started a long distance relationship. On one of Vishaal’s longest trips, a two-month visit, on the last night, the couple said a tearful goodbye before he headed to the airport. Keshvi went to work, and was still in tears, when she received a goodbye text from Vishaal to let her know that he was on the plane. When she left work, and was walking to her car, her parents' car pulled up next to her; she was overcome with joy when she realized that they had a big surprise for her – Vishaal hadn't left after all and was sitting in the back seat!

Vishaal took Keshvi out to dinner that night, and on the way to the restaurant told her that he had been offered a job and would be moving to London permanently. After dinner they went to the same bar where they had their first date to celebrate the great news. On the way, Vishaal took her on a romantic walk through the beautifully lit square in front of the Ham Yard Hotel, stopping suddenly to get down on one knee and propose. She, of course, said yes!

Their relationship is definitely a case of opposites attract. Sam is the adrenalineinducing adventure seeker, who likes snowmobiling and helicopters tours in Banff. Grace is the picture queen who is always ready for a photoshoot.

One day, they were going to meet a family friend for a business meeting at the Fairmont Royal York. It was there, at a place that had sentimental meaning for both of them, that the magic moment happened.

Sam proposed in front of the large clock in the hotel lobby, with Grace’s family there to witness it! He explained that the clock represented the endless amount of time, work and love he promised to put into their relationship.

Their reception was inviting and romantic, with tables and chairs in a classic white and grey colour palette, crystal candelabras, and beautiful centerpieces, all dimly lit by softly coloured lights. The dancefloor was silver metallic in colour, and they had a mirror table for themselves and their family. Their favourite details were the canopy over the head table with sparkling chandeliers and sweet smelling flowers; their backdrop with frames and greenery with their names; and the cake, which not only looked stunning, but also had a rich, fine taste that everyone enjoyed. They also loved the venue itself, from its architecture to the screens and lighting set up outside, to the red carpet leading guests in it was just perfect.

Dhruv and Jonita had been traveling a lot the year he proposed. At the time, they had been dating for about 7 years, so she half-expected it at every trip – London, Paris, Berlin, in Nova Scotia! But after every trip when it didn’t happen, she kept guessing. The perfect proposal came one September day when they made their annual trip to attend the Shaw Theatre and explore the vineyards, when Dhruv booked a private wine tour and they had the whole place to themselves.The vineyard served as a romantic backdrop as Dhruv got down on one knee, and asked Jonita to marry him – through happy tears, she said yes! – as one of their friends secretly documented the whole thing.

Their vision of a relaxed, intimate and elegant outdoor garden wedding was brought to life with a beautiful floral arch under a giant tree with stunning floral arrangements.

Pastel-hued florals and their white-and-gold-foil signage set the visual tone for their guests who were enjoying a gentle breeze, warm sunlight, and instrumental Kishor Kumar oldies played on flute and tabla set the mood. Dhruv and Jonita had a civil humanist ceremony, wrote their own vows, and incorporated their love for literature in the details of their day, like poems from Jonita’s favourite poet, Pablo Neruda, being incorporated into both the ceremony and the reception – a sweet detail that helped make the day special. Their outfits complemented the look of the ceremony and each other, with Jonita in a floral lengha in pastel shades, and Dhruv in a blush pink sherwani with a floral pocket square.

After the ceremony, the party moved to a romantic and modern all-white, candle-lit room with pastel hued florals and champagne gold details that added a warm ambiance to the reception. The room was draped in white fabric and their dance floor had a minimalist white and gold brush stroke decal. Their reception outfits were very much in line with this look, with Dhruv in a class white tuxedo with black trousers, and Jonita in a stunning Galia Lahav dress with rose gold heels. Their wedding was exactly as they had envisioned it – classic, timeless and elegant.

FIT FOR A KING g u ys g e t c e l e b r i t y t r e at m e n t at n o r t h a m e r i c a’s first suit shop for grooms

James Bond’s Albert Thurston suspenders, Kanye West’s favourite ties by Drake’s London and the Holland & Sherry vintage barathea shirt and Barneys New York stud sets worn by Barack Obama at his wedding are just a few of the accoutrements available to guys at Garrison Weddings - Garrison Bespoke’s luxe new Toronto shop devoted exclusively to grooms and their groomsmen.

The first of its kind in North America and located in Toronto’s iconic Omni King Edward Hotel, Garrison Weddings gives husbands-to-be the kind of royal treatment women have been treated to for centuries.

“Wedding culture has become so focused on the bride that the groom is often an afterthought. Tablecloths and dinnerware are often given more attention than the groom’s outfit, so it is our vision to change that. We not only give men the best-looking, best-fitting suits for their wedding days but also the bespoke experience they deserve leading up to it,” said Michael Nguyen, owner of Garrison Bespoke.

Garrison Weddings offers private, byappointment-only experiences where grooms and their brides-to-be or their groomsmen sip champagne or scotch and listen to

tai lo rs fo r su its t v

their favourite music while perusing the largest selection of fabrics and formal wear accessories for men in Canada.

Each groom then begins a five-fitting design process with a personal stylist who helps him select fabrics, colour schemes and details to complement his skin tone, personal style and wedding theme, while one of Garrison Bespoke’s Master Tailors ensures the perfect fit. Garrison Bespoke suits and tuxedos are designed to make grooms look sharp down the aisle and sleek in photos while still being flexible and comfortable enough to allow them to do the splits at the reception and carry the bride over the threshold.

Garrison grooms are in good company. Since opening its first location at King Street and Yonge Street in Toronto in 2008, Garrison Bespoke has attracted Toronto’s most influential figures in business, finance, law, sports, fashion to book an appointment and food and entertainment with a st ylist, call 416-566-2041 including the cast of Suits and Hannibal, The Toronto Blue Jays, The Toronto Raptors, The Toronto Maple Leafs, Toronto FC and Drake to name a few.

Hard Rock Hotels All Inclusive Collections, the perfect resort for South Asian Destination Weddings! I am Deepa Mahal, Certified Destination Wedding Planner with WPIC and Travel Specialist. I have been in the travel industry for a little over 7 years, and over the last 5 years I have built a strong niche market in South Asian Weddings.

When I first started working with Centre Holidays, I was selling air tickets, vacation packages, honeymoons, Europe, Cruises, Destination Weddings, and everything else under the sun. Within the first year, I realized where my passion lay and focused more on South Asian Weddings. Having booked and planned my first couple of weddings, I noticed how much was missing at the resorts to facilitate South Asian Weddings. I started researching what could make planning and facilitating South Asian weddings a smoother process, and reached out to a few different resort brands; in particular Hard Rock Hotels

AIC. I remember sitting down with my Business Development Manager (BDM), and explaining to her what was needed to grow the group business for this particular market. She liked the idea, but didn’t know much about all the functions required pre – and post – wedding. So, I thought best way to explain it to her and for her to get a real feeling for South Asian Weddings was to invite her to one of my own family weddings. Not only did my BDM learn about each and every ceremony/function, but she got to experience it firsthand.

This is where the story begins….

Soon after my BDM and I met we started jotting notes and planning a new concept to put a program in place catered to South Asian Communities. Once we had our thoughts on paper, I submitted a business proposal to Hard Rock Hotel AIC, which today is called the Ishq Rocks Program.

At present, Hard Rock Hotels AIC is one of the only Resorts that has a South Asian Wedding program designed for all South Asian Communities. Some of the benefits of the Ishq Rocks Program are: Book 11 rooms (or a minimum of 75 room nights, approximately 22 people), Hard Rock offers 3 hours for a private function each day Book 32 rooms (or a minimum of 225 room nights, approximately 64 people), Hard Rock offers 4 hours for a private function each day, and will include one catered Indian dinner from an Indian Chef) Book 43 rooms (or a minimum of 299 room nights, approximately 86 people), Hard Rock offers 5 hours for a private function each day, and will include one catered Indian breakfast or lunch and a dinner As you know, we South Asians love our “Bollywood”-like weddings, with all the glitz, glamour, entertainment, food, music, and parties that never end. This sounds to me like a Hard Rock vibe.

Hard Rock offers amazing vendors for décor, Mehndi designs, DJ sound system, lighting, flowers, and more. They haven’t skipped a beat with any of my Ishq Rock weddings. How could they, when they have Certified South Asian Wedding Planners who help create a Dream South Asian Destination Wedding. In my experience, this is the one brand who has invested time and money to fully train their wedding planners and coordinators so they understand all of the rituals and aspects of the Indian Wedding. Each wedding venue is planned and facilitated with great professionalism. I have to tip my hat to the planners who continue to deliver exceptional service and show full knowledge of the Ishq Rocks Program. As there are many different traditions and customs, the planners and coordinators are great at accommodating brides’ and grooms’ families’ personal requests, as no two weddings have been the same.

When people hear “Hard Rock”, they automatically think of Hard Rock Café and assume that it’s an adults-only resort. It is, however, a family resort that caters to every generation by offering several activities for all ages. There’s something to do for everyone, from golfing on professional Golf Courses, spa treatments, salon services, shopping, tours and excursions, Body Rock gym, casino, The Little Big Club for Children, Teen Lounge, and now Camp Woodward. All included or purchased with your Limitless Resort Credits. Hard Rock makes it very enticing by giving resort credits so that you’re able to fully explore and enjoy all they have to offer.

Limit less Resort Credit What I like most about Hard Rock is their $1800 per room Limitless Resort Credit, which guests can use towards spa treatments, some salon services (wash and blow dry, etc.), golfing tee times, excursions/ tours, upgraded wine list, private dinners, photo sessions, and much more! Keep in mind that the resort will charge a service fee of 20% on the amount of the resort credit used, to be paid at check out.

All Inclusive This is one resort where you can have it all: 5-star accommodations, delicious dining experiences, top-shelf liquor, 24-hour room service, daily activities, fitness centre, world-class golf, free WiFi throughout the resort, free calls to US and Canada, amazing entertainment, spa and total relaxation: “All Day, All Night, All Included.”

Golf Ent husiasts Golfers in the family will be happy to know that the golf courses were specially designed by Jack Nicklaus for Golf Royalty guests.

Spa Spending time at the spa is a great way to pamper yourself on your vacation. The spas at Hard Rock properties are truly heaven on earth, offering so many different treatments.

Kid and T een Act ivit ies The fun isn’t just for adults. Children can have an adventure of their own with Hard Rock’s signature kid-friendly hangouts, the Hard Rock Roxity Kids’ Club, The Little Big Club, Teen Spirit. and now introducing the all new Camp Woodward Dining Hard Rock is known for offering local tastes from various destinations on their menus. They have partnered up with highcaliber chefs to create delicious, unforgettable culinary delights at their upscale restaurants.

Night Life Hard Rocks are located in every city with a night life. Their clubs are designed with high-end technology, lighting, and décor which help create the ultimate experience for all your guests. From sipping tropical drinks poolside, to enjoying a martini while dancing in the club, Hard Rock guarantees you’ll be entertainment throughout your stay.

Rock Royalt y Level Here’s where things get a little bit louder. Upgrade your status to Rock Royalty and know what it’s like to be a VIP. As a part of this loyalty program, you will be assigned a personal concierge who will attend and take care of all your special requests. You will enjoy exclusive beach and pool areas, complimentary tickets to concerts, and priority access to events and perks, such as Rock Spa amenities.

Not only does your family get to enjoy a destination wedding in the tropics, the resort credits give you the maximum value for what you’ve spent. Planning a wedding is often stressful, especially planning one that is overseas, but Hard Rock’s Ishq Rocks program has made it a seamless process, no matter where or how big your wedding party is. They have fully trained and educated planners and coordinators who have been working with South Asian Weddings for several years. As far as I’m concerned, if you want it all, the Hard Rock Hotel is the only choice!

The Words of Hard Rock Hotels All Inclusive Collections, BDM: Destination Wedding and Travel Specialist Deepa Mahal with Centre Holidays based in Brampton, Ontario has built an incredibly successful travel business specializing in South Asian destination weddings.

Becoming the first and only Canadian travel professional to achieve the coveted Amped Diamond Level status in 2017 (251+ rooms booked per calendar year) has required an immense amount of hard work and dedication.

Since 2013, Deepa has invested a significant amount of time and funds to grow her business and to be recognized as an expert in her field. As both a consultant in the development and attendee of our inaugural Ishq Rocks WOW Specialist training program Deepa has experienced the resorts first hand and understands the exclusive wedding group benefits the Ishq Rocks program offers, which have been tailored to the needs of South Asian couples.

Deepa has grown her success by actively participating in community events and investing in marketing opportunities. She has utilized the tools available to travel agents to support these initiatives, such as customized post cards and flyers, customized trade show banners, and has even wrapped her vehicle to promote her travel business and the Ishq Rock program at Hard Rock All Inclusive Hotels.

Deepa has also created YYZ Destination Wedding Team – a team of vendors for her destination wedding couples – and also offers planning services. The knowledge and dedicated service Deepa provides her wedding couples has gained her many referrals.

Deepa has tirelessly promoted a brand and program she strongly believes in and we are thankful for her partnership!
