It was a week of non-stop excitement, laughter and smiles as friends and family celebrated them. If you want your wedding to be the one that will impress your guests and give them an amazing experience, read on to see the details of this vibrant South Asian wedding.
Before the décor, flowers, and food considerations, every bride and groom should first decide on the destination. We were honored to work with Priyanka and Varun in helping them find just the right location and venue.
We took them through our signature Resort Match Finder process which includes a deep dive into their vision for their wedding, how they want guests to feel and what was most important for each of them. It became obvious that Planet Hollywood Cancun was the perfect fit.

Finally, Planet Hollywood Cancun has special South Asian wedding packages that include most anything you would need for your wedding events. Having dedicated packages means the staff is well-versed in the various customs of South Asian weddings so you can have an authentic experience there.
