In the midst of a multi-day celebration filled with dancing, families uniting, and explosions of color around every corner, Pooja and Saurabh were wed in the heart of Nashville. The Sangeet Ceremony kicked off the wedding weekend underneath a towering 10-foot Mandap in vibrant shades of burgundy, red, and peach roses, anthurium, carnations, and hanging amaranthus.

The Mandap was so dazzling that it caught the eye of Vanity Fair and earned a spot in it’s “Vanity Fairytale” feature thanks to the collaboration of so many fabulous Nashville vendors and designers. Joyous celebrating, including hours of singing and choreographed traditional dancing, continued well into the evening leading up to the day of the final celebration.

For the reception, The Country Music Hall of Fame received every pink and sparkling treatment imaginable. While the initial ceremonies shone with varying shades of traditional red and orange, the reception was a full wash of magenta, bubblegum, and fuschia. An awe-inspiring chandelier of strands of carnations, ribbons, roses, and sparkling orbs hung above the dance floor as the celebratory dancing continued. Individual chandeliers adorned in smilax and pink flowers shone above the head table.

At T Villager, we always recommend a variety of looks as centerpieces to create visual interest and dimension in the reception space. Our versatile Oscar bowls decorated tables - some were used as luscious, low centerpieces and others were elevated on top of our harlowe stands as generous statement pieces. Our cherry trees - further enhanced with mounds of moss and flowers at their base - added a third element to the round guest tables - lending height and texture to the overall design. The centerpieces each uniquely popped on the gorgeous tablecloths thoughtfully selected by Premier Wed.

This full weekend of flowering, working hard, and dancing harder left our team fulfilled and worn out. But there’s nothing we wouldn’t do again to create magic and help bring our client’s wedding dreams to life.
