Its all about the fabrics!

The Saffron Affairs design team is working on an exquisite fabric mandap design for one of our weddings this memorial day weekend-  Its all about the drape and flow of opulent silks, glimmers of crystals, and fresh bloom cascades.

The theme has been inspired by the exquisite outfit of the bride - A Ritu Kumar Couture Sari.... the colors are old rose pinks, spiced watermelon, pearl, gold and hints of saffron. 

Preview of the concept:

Excited yet? Pictures will be up soon!

Congratulations to all our brides and grooms celebrating wedded bliss with Saffron Affairs this memorial day weekend!

XOXO

A New Year's Wedding Celebration

Chilly, windy and gray was the day of December 31st 2009. With a Mehndi celebration that evening, the team of saffron affairs set to work- converting the lack luster mood of the wintry day into a vibrant, regal event fit for an Indian princess.

The Theme of the Mehndi was inspired by the vivid colors of red, pink, blue, yellow and green accented with white and purple. The focal point at the Pflugerville Event Centre (The venue for the mehndi) was a Takht setup for the Henna Ceremony and just opposite on the other side of the hall was an exquistely carved Swing set up with a partial screen for the bride-to-be to view the entire event from. With some accents provided by the bride's uber talented aunt, the final look was truly worth a year end celebration.
Jan 1st 2010 brought The Wedding Reception at the Renaissance at the Arboretum in Austin. It was inspired by the ornate elegance of the Mughal era and the gold and silver leaf hand painted, intricately hand carved, and custom upholstered divan and chairs were the focal point for the stage for the entire event. The multi layered silk back drop reflected hues of ivory, gold, and hints of quartz sparkle in swirls, drapes and a spectacular arch and the look was finished with mood lighting and a lush deep red silk carpet.

IT WAS A DESIGN SOS!

Austin, still one of the top 10 cities to live in, Round Rock the 2nd fastest growing city, a rapidly expanding south asian community topping 30k...

Weddings, lush, lavish, extravagant, festive- venues regal, natural, religious, exotic...
Hotels adding award winning desi chefs to their teams, dancing horses and bhangra baraats a common sight in all venues...

And NO local wedding decor and event design vendor to cater to the exclusive needs of South Asian weddings...

S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S S.O.S

We heard it, with nearly a decade in ATX as our creative front for the award winning wedding photography and bridal makeup services, we felt it- working one on one with brides, grooms, their families- we saw it, desperate measures to pull together decor to create a regal desi wedding theme... So we DID IT.

Saffron Affairs is our newest venture, an answer to this gaping void in the community. Now we're here, to take care of all your celebrations, from pooja's to duaa ceremonies, engagements to aqeeqah's, pre-weddings to post wedding... Come on over to our world of creative event design and exquisite decor' and let us decorate it to the 9's!
