M&S's engagement ceremony at Leela, Gurgaon
North indian roka engagement ceremony Engagement event, Roka, Gurgaon, Leela,Gurugram
This was one of the most meticulously planned and executed engagement events that I have been a part of! Both M and S are based out of the US and it was brilliant how her mother managed everything from afar.
Their roka cum engagement ceremony happened in Hotel Leela, Gurgaon. The decor was simple yet effective. However, what surpassed everything else was the beautiful camaraderie that the bride and the groom shared - they were matching beat with beat, smile with smile!
While entering the main event hall, they broke into an energetic dance that took everyone by surprise!!
Right after exchanging the rings, there was a sangeet program. While everyone from their respective families danced well, what took the cake was the scintillating bhangra performance by M & S themselves! I had a mind to put my camera down and just enjoy the dance..
