Serena and Karan

Posted on: September 8, 2023

Both of them studied dentistry at Nova Southeastern University. That was the first thing that Dr. Serena Ghodasra and Dr. Karan Patel had in common. During freshman orientation in 2013, Karan fell in love with Serena during his first week of college. He chose to take his time because he was initially too frightened to approach her. And in 2014, they began dating. The following several years were spent together. Together, they attended dentistry school and shared college classes as they worked toward their shared objective of becoming dentists. Finally, Serena and Karan traveled to Miami for his birthday weekend in the middle of the COVID period. Karan proposed to Serena at a stunning location overlooking the Miami skyline while they were there on a little cruise in the Miami Bay Area. Serena’s “yes” came as a pleasant surprise.

They made the decision to get married on February 11, 2023. The Embassy Suites in St. Augustine, Florida, was the ideal location for the bride and groom’s beachside wedding and reception because they both desired an intimate environment. For every event, they desired simple, contemporary, and beautiful styling. Additionally, the couple added personal touches to each celebration, and the 250 guests and members of both families were made to feel incredibly welcome.

Their Mehndi night served more as an icebreaker so that both Karan and Serena’s families could get to know one another. Everyone took part in the karaoke night by singing or dancing. The marriage ceremony was held inside. With a live Dholi and celebratory music, Karan rode up on his horse. The ring bearer was Lucky, a dog owned by Karan’s brother. He eagerly went in their direction with the rings on his collar since he was so happy to see the pair together.

The evening reception was a very lovely event as well. The wedding party entered to their favorite music, and the newlyweds came out to a Calvin Harris tune. With the abundant use of sparkler fountains, the entrance was elevated to a special level. The aunts, uncles, and cousins in Karan’s immediate family performed a group dance. There were several different types of branded freebies, sunglasses, and technical elements like guest WhatsApp groups and Google Drive accounts. However, the delight, closeness, and friendly atmosphere of Serena and Karan’s wedding were the most significant aspects that affected everyone.
