The Versatility Of A Mandap

Nisha and Mainak held their wedding at the Lake Mary Marriott. From the moment Nisha and Mainak began planning, they knew they wanted to be unique. They wanted something out of the ordinary, and they ended up utilizing a single mandap in two vastly different and beautiful ways.

For the wedding ceremony, we went for a romantic feel, draping the roof of the mandap with gold satin fabric, hanging crystals and candles with gorgeous arrangements of fresh floral consisting of orchids, lilies, roses, hydrangeas and gerbera daisies. The aisle featured vases of various heights with submerged orchids and rose petals.

Since Nisha and Mainak loved the mandap so much they decided to reuse it for the Reception. We transformed the look of the mandap with a lighting package that made the mandap glow with a beautiful magenta color.

The paisley wall design, also included in the lighting package, added extra dimension to the room.

The stunning estate tables consisted of long, rectangular vases with crystals and floating candles and tall concave vases, lit from below, with a burst of fresh floral blue orchids and curly willow.

The round guest tables had the same concave vases with a submerged orchid and floating candle. The gold chargers helped to pull the look together.

Through ingenuity, attention to detail, and careful lighting design, a single beautiful piece was refashioned to fulfill two purposes.
