SHLOKA HIRANANDANI & KISHAN SAGAR

The Payalana Hua Hin 

#shlokished

Shloka Hiranandani and Kishan Sagar dreamt of an intimate wedding right by the ocean, so when they visited The Palayana Hua Hin for the first time, it was love at first sight. They bought out the entire property for approximately 100 guests, and made the most out of the picture-perfect venues, setting up a colourful flamingo-inspired ambience for the pool party, and a Garba-inspired look for the sangeet. Shloka shares her favourite memories

Why was Thailand your ideal wedding destination?

“I always wanted to get married in India, but Kishan wanted to get married in Dubai, where we both lived. We finally decided to have a destination wedding, with exquisite food, affordable prices and convenience. Thailand stood out.”

Which event was the highlight?

“The welcome brunch. We wanted this to be an icebreaker between our families and friends, so we had games, mehendi cabanas, chilled beer stations, a DJ booth, and live stations with delicious Thai cuisine. We made our grand entry on a tricycle holding smoke bombs, which was definitely a memorable moment.” 

How did you bring your vision to life?

“Before reaching out to different planners, my husband and I created a presentation that included our vision and the breakdown of events. This made it easier for the planner to understand our concept.”

Which fashion and jewellery designer did you wear and why?

“My mum and I went to India to shop for my wedding lehenga,and when I tried on a piece from Mumbai-based boutique Kalki Fashion, I heard the famous song “Din Shagna Da” from Phillauri (2017) playing in my head, and I knew this was it.My wedding jewellery was from Minerali, Mumbai’s very first multi-designer jewellery store.”
