A surreal destination wedding in Lonavala overlooking the Pawna lake

We got introduced to Dipti and Osho by Kirti (Dipti’s elder sister) and just after few conversations, we were on board to plan the wedding. Both Dipti and Osho live in the US and had to plan their destination wedding in Lonavala from far abroad – they visioned their wedding to be an intimate affair with only 40 guests at a cosy venue, they carefully picked every element of the decor to entertainment artists to make up artiste and photographer – almost everything was planned through online correspondence and yes it was planned to perfect!

Below are the glimpses from the 2days celebration: (watch this space for updates on pictures)
