August 2013
Azra and Umar came from opposite ends of the world to celebrate their special day in Sri Lanka. As you would expect, family and friends followed suite and travelled far and wide to share in the joy. The Mount Lavinia hotel was, for a night, turned into a global celebration of love. Inspired by the hotel’s colonial style, the décor followed suite with a classic blush and ivory scheme.
The warm candlelight and subtly shaded floral centerpieces set the perfect mood for a classy four-course meal accompanied by a series of heart-warming speeches that could only have come from the truest of family and friends. At midnight, like a mystery of the Persian desert, the innermost circle of family and friends were whisked away to a private room to enjoy a variety of exotic Middle Eastern sweets and fragrant teas and coffees. It was a beautiful evening filled with love, happiness and joy. Congratulations Azra and Umar! We wish you well on your journey together!
