Handmade India Desert Wedding: Nicole + Jordan – Part 2

Wedding Party

We are in wedding dreamland today with this two-part India desert feature, sent over by the lovely Danelle Bohane, so be sure to check out Part 1 first if you haven’t already before diving into Part 2 with us!

Nicole + Jordan knew they wanted to celebrate their love in an exotic natural location and bring along their closest friends + family for the ride. Nicole shares, We wanted to go somewhere that was naturally beautiful and far away from where we live. We did a lot of thinking and researching online but nothing seemed to fit. Jordy had been to Jaisalmer when he was 3 years old and his family had told us how amazing it was, so we started to think of that as an idea. We then went a month later to check it out and we fell in love with the place. It’s a bit like a fairy tale out there….

Nicole tried on “about 100” wedding dresses and couldn’t find a single one that she absolutely loved. We can’t blame her one bit for deciding to have a dress made in India instead and we seriously love how it turned out!

Our Advice To Those Planning Now

I would say go for it. Dream as big as you want and then just do it. At times it may never seem possible or like anything will happen but the amazing thing about weddings are that all your favorite people are around you pushing you on and making your dream come true.
