A Vibrant Indian Wedding in Calgary, Alberta

Apr 04, 2013 | By Vanessa Ortynsky

Manisha and Raman met at the Calgary Stampede in 2006. When it came time to pop the question, Raman took Manisha by total surprise. A mutual friend, who was recently engaged, convinced Manisha she was having an engagement party, which the couple agreed to attend. Unfortunately, just as they were about to leave for the party dressed to the nines, Raman said he wasn't feeling well and wanted to get some air. They took a stroll together and that's when Raman got down on one knee! Little did Manisha know that the party she would attend later that night would be in her honour!

Manisha and Raman hosted their chic Indian wedding celebration at the Meridian Banquet Hall. They incorporated various traditional and contemporary elements into their day. The couple both dressed in vibrant Indian wedding attire and served contemporary Indian food from Zaika Bistro at their reception. Manisha's favourite part of the event was dancing at her reception surrounded by 600 friends and family members.
