Indian Wedding Budapest
Naseem and Priya’s Indian wedding in Budapest was a multi days long celebration. At our initial conversation when we met in the cafe part of Hotel Marriott ( where the majority of the wedding was held later) we talked through their families and backgrounds as this is what defined the plans for the wedding day. Priya with Indian roots, Naseem with Irish and Egyptian roots, they both had different traditions, customs and religions, meaning they had to have 2 different wedding ceremonies too.
This post is mainly about their Indian wedding Celebrations in Hotel Marriott Budapest.
You might ask why they chose Budapest as their wedding location, well, Naseem grew up in Budapest and his family still lives here, so he knew the beauty of the city, and they thought this would be the perfect location to meet all their friends from all over the world and have them experience not only the wedding but show around Budapest too.
What best to start with than a sunset cruise on Danube? An easy and possibly the best way to get a glimpse of the unbelievable panorama Budapest offers.
The wedding day started in the Hotel with preparations. Lots of preparations. There were over 150 guests so the main ball room in Hotel Marriott was filled with tables, and flower arrangements.
For the Hindu wedding ceremony the huge terrace next to the ball room was set up overlooking the Buda Castle and the Chain Bridge. A Hindu marriage ceremony consists of many little rituals, the key parts are of when the daughter is given away by the father. A wedding day is an amazing experience where all your loved ones get to meet each other, both sides of the family, friends and relatives are having fun together. Besides all this, Priya’s day was so vibrant, colourful and cheerful.
