A Real Fairytale Wedding We Planned at Malhar Machi

July 16, 2025

Some weddings are memorable, but Shrushti and Kunal’s wedding? It was truly breathtaking.

Right from the start, when we were planning their big day at Malhar Machi on the hill, they knew what they wanted. They wanted to keep things traditional but with a classy feel. No crazy extras, just meaningful, graceful moments that would stick with everyone. And that’s just how it turned out.

The Sangeet Night

Shrushti and Kunal’s sangeet night was amazing. Held at the stunning Malhar Machi, this unforgettable celebration was brought to life by Hitched India — your royal wedding planners in Maharashtra. With breathtaking hillside views, vibrant colors, soulful music, and heartfelt moments, the night was nothing short of magical. From the second guests started showing up in their nice clothes, it was clear that this wasn’t just a party before the wedding. It was a celebration of love, laughter, and being together.

Shrushti looked amazing in a white lehenga that seemed to glow under the stage lights. She was calm and happy. Kunal, wearing a black suit, was just as graceful. Their dance together was more than just a performance. It showed how well they get along. Every move and every smile felt real and personal.

Family and friends put their hearts into their performances. Each dance and solo act told a story of friendships, childhood memories, and the kind of connections that get stronger when planning a wedding. We’ve planned many sangeets, but this one was special. There were no big surprises, just real feelings, good music, and happiness.

It wasn’t just a show. It was a shared celebration that made everyone feel like they were part of something bigger—a beginning based on happiness, not just traditions.

The Wedding: Tradition in Every Little Thing

The next morning felt different – calmer, more special. As the sun came up over the quiet hills of Malhar Machi and a cool breeze moved through the pine trees, the wedding preparations got going. We set up the mandap, a simple but spiritual structure made from natural stuff, under the tall trees and next to the Devi Mandir.

Shrushti wore a Purple and gold Paithani saree with pretty borders that sparkled in the sunlight. Her hair was pulled back neatly and decorated with white flowers in a classic Marathi bridal style. Everything she wore – her Nath, green glass bangles, and traditional jewelry – showed off her heritage and style.

Kunal looked like he was in an old movie. He wore a cream-colored sherwani with fancy gold details, along with a red stole and turban. He carried himself with the class of a modern Maratha groom.

Their arrival was traditional but personal. There was no big show, just peaceful music, soft smiles, and loving looks. 

Wedding Rituals: Sacred, Soulful, and Slow

A Haldi Morning That Felt Like Pure Sunshine

Shrushti and Kunal’s Haldi was like a splash of sunshine. The hills chilled in the back, and the laughter was even louder than the music—it was a happy scene.

Shrushti looked radiant in a green saree with a pink blouse, while Kunal smiled through every turmeric-covered hug in his white kurta-pyjama and green jacket.

The families didn’t hold back either — what started as a sweet tradition turned into a full-blown celebration with dads, cousins, best friends… everyone joining the fun!

There were kisses, hugs, and showers of flowers, with moments that were wild and still at the same time. It wasn’t just about what you’re supposed to do; it was about being together.

The Final Moment!

Weddings these days often feel like a race. But this one? It took its time. Each part, from the antarpat to the mangalsutra, got the attention and quiet it needed. The older family members gave their blessings, some even with tears. The priests chanted, and their words seemed to fill the whole forest behind us. It even felt like the wind slowed down to watch.

Shrushti and Kunal exchanged garlands as the marigolds gently swayed. When she touched his feet and he lifted her veil to finish the varmaala, it felt like years of tradition all came together in that single, beautiful moment.

These weren’t just things they had to do; they were real promises. They weren’t made quickly, but with real feeling and meaning.

Styling That Told a Story

One thing we loved about the celebration was that everything – from the clothes to the jewelry to the flowers – felt meaningful and connected.

  • Shrushti’s jewelry was a really beautiful mix of old and new, taking inspiration from Neelkanth. Each piece felt special and important.
  • Kunal’s clothes were made by Pankaj Desai. His skill showed in the details, which felt fancy without being too much.
  • The flowers were traditional – mogra, marigold, banana leaves, and simple greenery – all tied together for a natural, pretty look.

There were no big, flashy decorations. The hills, trees, and even the air itself set the scene perfectly. We just stepped back and let nature and people’s feelings do their thing.

A Ceremony from the Heart

One of the most touching parts was the kanyadaan. Shrushti’s parents held her hands one last time before giving them to Kunal. It felt so real and emotional. Her dad held on a little longer, and her mom kept wiping away tears.

Kunal took her hand gently. There was no show, just two people starting something new, calm and together.

The After-Wedding Feeling

Even after things wrapped up, the good feeling stayed. People didn’t hurry off. Families hugged a bit longer. Friends stayed in groups, talking about the dances and fun from the night before.

This wedding, planned by us — the best wedding planners in Mumbai — was special not just because it was beautiful, but because of the thought behind every detail. Everything was done to create lasting memories, not just moments for social media. It was about genuine connection, not applause.
