In an earlier post I had talked about ‘the big fat’ Indian wedding I was going to attend at Bacara Resort and Spa in Santa Barbara, California.

It has been a week since I returned and still reliving the fabulous affair, something to talk about not for its ostentatious display but for the subdued rich presentation. The ambiance,….rolling greens, the azure sky and Pacific waters adding that touch of glamour which made for the heady  extravaganza. It was an afternoon wedding followed by black tie event in the evening. The four-day event was packed with sumptuous food, music, dance troupes from India, opera, ballet, fiddlers, prompting a guest to whisper ‘ one thing missing is synchronized swimming gala…… probably inspired by the ocean and Rio Olympics.

Well…. family and friends had an amazing time, dressed in their best, flashing jewels and with the Resort providing top class facilities and services what else could one ask for.
