Sonali Thakore, Co Founder of The Bridal Retreat shares how it is a 5-day residential experience empowering brides with emotional clarity, wellness and tools to prepare for marriage beyond the big day. For many years, weddings have dazzled with grandeur, from mandaps bathed in moonlight to lehengas shimmering like galaxies. But behind the opulence, there has always been a quieter transformation at play, one that too often goes unnoticed: the bride’s internal shift. This very personal evolution inspired the creation of The Bridal Retreat, a thoughtful five-day residential experience meant to help brides prepare not only for their wedding but also for their lives afterward.
