Friends from Moscow join in the traditional dance

Set against the romantic backdrop of glittering lakes and majestic palaces of Udaipur in India, the Indian Fantasy double celebration hosted by Elya and Johnny Manglani was a glamorous affair. The occasion marked the 25th silver wedding jubilee and the 50th birthday of the president and CEO of men’s fashion retailer Uomo Group. 

In the evening, the 17th century Jagmandir Island Palace set the scene for the main event, where guests witnessed the couple’s renewal of vows. The festivities continued with Johnny’s birthday bash at the Zenana Mahal Palace where Elya morphed herself into a Bond girl as a surprise for her husband. Completing the three-part soiree were lively speeches as well as endless dancing worthy of a Bollywood blockbuster.
