The ceremony will include a series of ceremonies for the bride and groom. In our culture we tie the knot at an auspicious time (a.k.a the Sumuhurtham), which in our case is at 11.24am.

As our wonderful guests, you are free to dress as you will. Indian or western clothing - whatever floats your boat!

24th January: Very casual and informal

25th January: (am) Casual and informal (Indian or Western); (pm) formal, usually Western but Indian is OK too

26th January: (am) formal (Indian or Western)

For those of you who want to dress in the indian traditional clothing we have created a Pinterest board for some inspo (for men and women!) with comments on which ceremony there are most suited for. Hope this helps!

Private events

Most of our functions are being held at Hyatt Hyderabad Gachibowli. We were able to negotiate a good rate for our guests and have arranged for our families to stay there as well. If you'd like our help to arrange your stay, please get in touch with Divya or Matt via whatsapp/email/text and we can do so for you (before 10 November 2019). If you'd like to arrange your own stay, that's OK too :)

Some useful links:

Hyatt

AirBnB (if you are choosing this option, please try and stay near the wedding venue to avoid traffic related delays.)

Your presence is gift enough but if you wish to get us a little something, a contribution to this cause would be most appreciated:

We wish to donate a portion of our monetary gifts to:

Holy Child English Medium School, C/o Ashritha School and Rehabilitation Center, RR District, Hyderabad.

Thank you for supporting us in our initiative.

Thank you!

By Air:

Main airport: Rajiv Gandhi International Airport

The Rajiv Gandhi International terminal, Hyderabad’s international airport is well-connected with major cities across the globe. The airport also has a domestic terminal called NT Rama Rao which is connected to most of the Indian cities. Approximately 20 kilometres away from the city, the airport is situated in the Begumpet area. Almost all airlines fly daily from and to Hyderabad. Once you reach here, you can find many private and prepaid taxis outside the airport. The cab fare may vary depending upon which part of Hyderabad city you would like to go.

By Train:

There are three major railheads in the city, namely, Hyderabad Railway Station, Secunderabad Railway Station and Kachiguda Railway Station. These railheads connect major Indian cities like Bangalore, Chennai, New Delhi, Mumbai and Pune. Some of the popular trains that run daily from Hyderabad rail junctions are Kacheguda Express, Hyderabad Express, Charminar Express, Konark Express, Andhra Pradesh Express and Shatabdi Express.
