Rahul Youyou Wedding

This destination wedding was a mix of two cultures, as the groom was from Kerala, a traditional Hindu Nair, while the bride was Chinese. The wedding festivities took place at the Ramada Resort, Kochi, and were spread over two days. In these two days, the bride’s family, who were Chinese, had a brief glimpse of the beautiful wedding destination that was Kerala.

The destination wedding celebrations began with a North-Indian Sangeet night on June 1st at the Ramada Resort. This pre-wedding party was a fun-filled show of colours and lights! The sangeet night began with a bang, with the bride and bridegroom entry designed in a loud entry sequence. The Chinese bride was treated to a Punjabi welcome in a dhol and dhandiya sequence. A bit of Moroccan flare was also added to the entry sequence as the bride had a train of hostesses holding up Moroccan lights to announce her entry. The groom was welcomed into the sangeet venue with a similar sequence of dhol and bhangra dancers. He was brought in with a frame decorated with jasmine flowers. The sangeet was a mixture of toasts by the family members and games for the couple. Most of the games were North Indian in nature, such as finding the ring in an urli filled with milk and rose petals and a dance competition between men and women.

The night ended in a fusion dinner with dishes from across the world being served to the guests who had gathered at Ramada Resort for this destination wedding. Tamarind Weddings mixed a bit of Chinese tradition into the destination wedding by having a wish lantern release by the couple at the poolside of Ramada Resort, followed by a sparkling display of colourful fireworks.
