When Krati Jain and Avi Bhandari, both lawyers and former colleagues, decided to tie the knot, they wanted a simple court wedding.

Instead, the couple had a two-day extravaganza with about 1,000 guests. And thanks to the highly experienced team at InterContinental Dubai Festival City taking care of all the small details, it was a stress-free experience.
