Amrita and Abhijit's journey from teenage romance to a dreamy beach wedding in Goa is as enchanting as their love story. Their simple yet spectacular two-day celebration was thoughtfully planned by Wedifys Favorite – Pataka Events, perfectly capturing their personalities and their shared love for nature and the outdoors.

“We were best friends in school and have been dating since we were 16. Abhijit (or ‘Juice’ as his friends call him) saw me perform in a school competition and was smitten,” Amrita says with a laugh. Abhijit found it easy to break the ice with Amrita during their playtime, as she played football with the boys every evening. Once they got to know each other, he won her over.
The Proposal - A Moment That Needed No Wedding Planner Script
“We had really been dating forever, so that hashtag #AboutTimeAmuJuice was pretty apt,” the bride quips. “We already knew we were going to spend our lives together, so there wasn’t any formal proposal. But when we FINALLY tied the knot, our friends heaved a sigh of relief.”

“We wanted a small, relaxed destination wedding with just friends and family in tow. There’s nothing better than Goa. A merry atmosphere, gorgeous beaches, and we’ve been making annual trips there since 12th grade, so we felt it would be a fitting tribute to the personal connection we have to a place where we made so many memories. We picked the Holiday Inn for its hospitality and service, beachfront location, and their gorgeous ballroom.”
Wedding Planning - Crafted With Care By a Top Wedding Planner Team
After meeting several planners, the couple bonded with Ayesha and Joshua of Pataka Events over a mutual love of the outdoors and an intuition about the décor they wanted, which was within their budget. They were clear that on their wedding day they wanted raw emotion and real interaction to be saved for posterity, so they entrusted Sudheer from Wedding Snipers with the wedding photography. Chikpet designed their invitations.
As for her makeup artist, the bride didn’t have one. She says, “I have always been a tomboy, and I have super sensitive skin, so I’ve never felt comfortable wearing makeup. Instead, I focused on my skincare and chose to go ‘au naturelle’ with just mascara and lipstick.”

“We didn’t want a long, drawn-out wedding with lots of customs, rituals, and hymns we didn’t understand. We wanted to genuinely understand the vows we were making and commit to loving each other and being together forever. So we chose an Arya Samaj wedding on the beach at sunset. My sister, my friend, and I made corsages and boutonnieres for all the women and men to wear for the occasion.”
