Planning Manu and Luis’s wedding at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery was a truly special experience for me, both professionally and personally. Their celebration was a beautiful fusion of Indian, Christian, and Puerto Rican traditions, thoughtfully layered into a day that felt elegant, meaningful, and deeply rooted in family. Casa Real provided the perfect backdrop for a wedding that required intention, flow, and a high level of coordination to ensure every cultural element felt honored. A Casa Real Indian Wedding is always effortless and unique when it’s a fusion celebration.
.From the outset, Manu and Luis made it clear they wanted their wedding to feel cohesive rather than divided into separate parts. My role as their full-service wedding planner was to guide that vision and translate it into a seamless experience. Fusion weddings require a careful balance of tradition, timing, and guest experience, and Casa Real’s grand architecture and gardens allowed us to move through the day in a way that felt natural and elevated.
The wedding’s design was romantic and refined, with florals that added warmth and softness to the venue’s classic elegance. Blooms by Sirce created stunning arrangements that blended rich tones and seasonal flowers, enhancing the beauty of Casa Real without overpowering it. Every floral moment felt intentional, from the ceremony setting to the reception tables, and helped tie together the cultural influences present throughout the day.
One of the most striking details was the wedding cake, which served as both a visual statement and a meaningful focal point. The cake was designed with clean lines and soft, romantic detailing that complemented the wedding’s overall aesthetic. It felt timeless and elegant, ideally suited to Casa Real’s refined setting, yet stood out as a celebratory centerpiece at the reception.
Manu’s hair and makeup were handled by Beauty Innovations, which created a polished, radiant, and effortless look. The styling honored her natural beauty and complemented her attire throughout the day, ensuring she felt confident and comfortable from the ceremony through the celebration that followed.
Music played a significant role in bringing the cultures together, and Wicked Entertainment, an Indian DJ, did an incredible job setting the tone for the evening. From honoring cultural moments to keeping the energy high on the dance floor, the music reflected the joy and vibrancy of Manu and Luis’s families as they came together. The transitions between moments were smooth and intentional, ensuring guests from all backgrounds felt included and engaged.
What stood out most to me about this wedding was how connected everything felt. Each detail, from the ceremony flow to the reception energy, was thoughtfully planned so that Manu and Luis could be fully present with their families. Full-service planning enabled us to manage complex timelines, coordinate vendors, and navigate cultural expectations behind the scenes, creating a day that felt effortless for the couple and their guests.
Casa Real Indian Wedding are exceptional, but they also require experienced planning and production oversight. Weddings like Manu and Luis’s are precisely why I believe full-service planning is essential. When multiple cultures, traditions, and families come together, having a planner who can guide the process with clarity and care makes all the difference.
It was an honor to plan Manu and Luis’s wedding and to help bring their vision to life at Casa Real. Their celebration was a reminder of how powerful and beautiful fusion weddings can be when they are approached with intention, respect, and thoughtful design.
