Real Wedding
A vibrant Indian ceremony and spooky Halloween reception made Mashall and Puneet’s wedding unforgettable.

Mashall Smith and Puneet Sharma's love story began over tacos and drinks in Louisiana and reached a fun—and spooky—peak during their October 30, Halloween-inspired reception. Upon meeting, it was Mashall's smooth voice and Puneet's winning smile that made sparks fly. Their connection deepened over their shared love of adventure and the Pacific Northwest's great outdoors, leading to Puneet's proposal and a wedding that would perfectly blend tradition with playful flair. They tied the knot in a celebration as unique as their love. Their wedding at the Portland Art Museum kicked off with a vibrant Baraat through the Park Blocks, leading to a traditional Indian ceremony framed by lush greenery and bursts of pinks and oranges. Mashall's bridesmaids walked her down the aisle under a symbolic tapestry, honoring her journey and upbringing. But the real twist came after the ceremony. Once guests had enjoyed a formal Indian lunch catered by Maruti, the Sunken Ballroom was transformed into a spooky Halloween wonderland. Guests returned in full costume for a night of eerie elegance. Pop culture-inspired Halloween décor set the scene, and DJ Anjali and The Incredible Kid kept the energy high. Dinner fueled the festivities as the night became a spirited celebration of love and a dash of the supernatural, with centerpieces reflecting some of the newlyweds' favorite characters from The Addams Family.
