‘Shaadi by Marriott’ was created with the intent to craft unique and personalized wedding experiences, that come alive with great food, fabulous venues, exquisite décor and above all, unparalleled service levels. Marriott hotels are known for their food & beverage selections and over the two days guests were treated to a variety of cuisines ranging from Awadhi, Punjabi, Asian, and Continental to local delicacies and Elai Sapadu - the traditional South Indian sit down meal served on a banana leaf. From curating personalized wedding experiences to playing the perfect host, the two-day extravaganza highlighted key facets of this luxurious and holistic wedding experience curated by the brand.

The Tamil Nadu edition of the initiative offered a magnificent opportunity to leading wedding professionals in the country to collaborate with Marriott International and create bespoke weddings that are one of a kind in their picturesque properties. On the first day of the coveted event, the attendees witnessed a selection of sumptuous indulgences curated by the talented culinarians at The Westin Chennai Velachery and Four Points by Sheraton Mahabalipuram Resort & Convention Centre. On the following day, the attendees indulged in an array of insightful yet enjoyable series of activities like the Varmala ceremony followed by interactive sessions with industry professionals and a grand gala evening on the lawns of the Sheraton Grand Chennai Resort & Spa.
