Planning Jesse and Mahsa’s wedding was a truly remarkable experience for me. Bringing together the traditions of a Jewish American groom and an Iranian bride was incredibly exciting and fulfilling. Working closely with Jesse and Mahsa, we curated every detail of their wedding, blending Iranian customs that were significant to Mahsa with important Jewish traditions for Jesse.

Organizing a destination wedding in Bali posed its challenges, especially considering the diverse backgrounds of the families coming together from around the world. Additionally, navigating Indonesian immigration restrictions for Iranian passport holders added complexity to the planning process. However, despite these obstacles, everything came together beautifully on the special day, and seeing Mahsa’s radiant smile made it all worthwhile.

Jesse and Mahsa chose the breathtaking Stone House at Tirtha Bridal for their wedding venue, with its stunning ocean cliff backdrop and panoramic views of the Indian Ocean. It provided the perfect setting to gather their loved ones and celebrate their union in a truly magical way.

For me, the most rewarding aspect was merging these distinct cultures to create a harmonious and unforgettable wedding experience. Witnessing Mahsa’s joy as she honored her heritage and Jesse’s traditions in one ceremony was incredibly moving.

Despite the logistical intricacies of a destination wedding, the beauty of the Stone House at Tirtha Bridal served as a stunning backdrop for this multicultural celebration. Love transcended borders and cultures, making Jesse and Mahsa’s wedding a testament to the power of love and unity.

I am grateful to have been part of their journey and to have helped bring their vision to life amidst Bali’s enchanting landscape. It was an honor to create enduring memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Mazel Tov!
