Priya & Arpan, a Destination Indian Wedding in Praia d’El Rey

“The traditional Hindu wedding ceremony creates a sacred union between two souls. Each phase of the ceremony has a deep symbolic, spiritual and philosophical meaning to unite Arpan & Priya and bond their two families for generations to come.”

Welcome to the great Wedding Story of Priya and Arpan. They came all the way from New York to have their destination wedding in Óbidos, Portugal.

They brought their families and friends from all around the world, to this magnificent venue, which is the Marriot resort Praia d´El Rey, well known as an exclusive crown jewel at Portugal’s Silver Coast, having it´s world-class golf course and the pristine, golden sand beaches with the Atlantic sea as a backdrop.

This story was to be told during quite intense and unforgettable, three days. Getting to know Priya and Arpan, and their families and friends along this journey, made us feel truly humble and thankful to share a so very special moment in their lives. What an immense love bubble around these two lovebirds, and such amazing stories shared during the days.

The design, wedding planning and coordination was held by the Indian Weddings specialists, the incredible Details Event Planners team.

It´s dawn, as we enter Priya´s room. We capture the sunrise at the balcony towards the sea, while Priya´s having her make-up done. The great Wedding day had begun…
