Where Cultures Meet: Casey’s Indian-Western Fusion Wedding with KYNAH

From a serendipitous meeting in Ibiza to a heartfelt fusion wedding surrounded by family from across the globe, Casey’s love story is one defined by connection, intention, and culture. Blending Indian and Western traditions seamlessly, her celebration was a true reflection of her journey—made even more special by a KYNAH lehenga that embodied elegance, craftsmanship, and the beauty of honoring every part of who she is.

Our beautiful KYNAH bride Casey, was truly glowing in the Brigitte Lehenga by KYNAH! Congratulations to this lovely couple - the KYNAH team couldn't be happier for the both of you! 

As said by Casey:


Tell us about your experience working with KYNAH.
KYNAH was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. Like most brides, wedding planning season was extremely hectic, and I was finding it hard to communicate with so many vendors as I did not hire a wedding planner. Despite the lack of communication from my side, KYNAH Support was so kind, supportive, patient, and wonderful throughout the entire process. The customer service is absolutely unmatched. We spoke at length about my measurements and design wishes, and I even got on a video call at one point for measurement assistance. A business like this could easily just send measurement guidelines and call it done, but the team made sure that I felt confident with my measurements and took the time to assist when I felt like I was maybe doing things incorrectly. They were also in close contact with the designers in India, which also took a huge burden off me to coordinate with designers many time zones away. That level of customer support is so unique and made the entire process such a breeze. They are knowledgable, passionate, and warm - exactly what you need in a stressful time of life! To the entire team - thank you for everything, especially for being one of my easiest vendors to work with. The photos speak for itself - the fit, look, and appearance was everything I dreamed of. I could not recommend working with KYNAH enough, and have recommended them to so many friends already!

My partner and I had met in Ibiza, Spain, at a party, 5 years before the proposal. I was studying abroad and he was on vacation there. He is from The Netherlands, and I was born and raised in the US. We instantly connected that night and made the crazy decision to begin a long distance relationship in 2019! COVID came shortly thereafter and squashed all plans of visiting each other across borders during lockdown. What should have been a relationship ender, ended up being something that strengthened our relationship to where we are today. After 4-ish years of long distance dating between the US and the Netherlands, his family decided to visit the US to meet my family and connect. During that trip, our families finally got the opportunity to meet and bond, and it was incredibly special and satisfying. That trip, when both of our families could be there for the moment, Dyon pulled me aside for a private, spontaneous moment at his parent's AirBnB to propose. He had the ring and knew he was going to propose on that trip, but was waiting for the perfect moment, and pulled me outside where we had a bonfire going to pop the question. After the proposal, we went back inside to our parents and siblings and got to celebrate the moment intimately with them. After the proposal, we decided to finally close the gap and I left my job, friends, and family behind to move to the Netherlands to be with Dyon forever.

What was your favorite part of your wedding? How did you make the wedding personal to you?

My favorite part of the wedding was the blended aspect of cultures. A wedding between an Indian-American and Dutch person, with a Hindu ceremony, Dutch music playing during the bharat, samosas served alongside meatballs at cocktail hour, and the overall fusion of the wedding felt like a real representation of who were are and where we came from. It was especially wonderful to see how many people traveled from overseas to be there on our special day. Our overall guest count wasn't extremely high, but every person there meant so much to us and truly are an extension of our family.

What is one thing you wish you knew before you started planning your wedding? 

It at times feels like a full-time job. Think about it - wedding planning itself is an actual career, and I had no idea how time intensive it would be until I got started! I was the first of my friends to get married, so I had no previous knowledge of how intense it would be. After the proposal, I began making my move overseas, and between that and wedding planning, it was a lot on my plate. If you're in a stressful time of life (new job, new house, big move, etc.), it might be beneficial to have a planner to keep you on track. I did mine without a planner and am so pleased with how our wedding turned out, but had I known how intensive it would be, I probably would have hired a planner to take some of the burden off.

If you and your husband could have invited any celebrity to your wedding, who would it be and why?

For my husband, probably a footballer. For me, Dua Lipa - that girl knows how to party and live her life to the fullest!
