    Jeevan & Srgun: Modern-Meets-Traditional Style

    From vibrant jago colours to regal ceremony details, Jeevan and Srgun’s wedding style blended tradition and modernity with intention, personality, and thoughtful styling throughout.

    A Wedding That Balanced Heritage and Now

    Jeevan and Srgun’s wedding was rooted in intention from the very beginning. When Pardaze was invited to profile their wedding, it was immediately clear that style played a central role in how they envisioned their celebration. Rather than choosing between traditional or modern, they wanted both to exist together in a way that felt authentic to who they are.

    The festivities – held in Vancouver, Canada – spanned three days, with jago, maiyaan, and chunni ceremonies on the first day, the wedding on the second, and a reception at the Sky Helicopters Hanger to close the celebrations.

    Coming from Punjabi families, Jeevan and Srgun brought deep cultural intention to their wedding celebrations, while their personal story reflected a modern sensibility. Jeevan is a lawyer and Srgun is a doctor, both grounded in purpose and discipline, yet their journey together began online. That same balance between tradition and modernity shaped not only how they met, but how they approached every detail of their celebrations.

    Their wedding did not follow a formula. It followed their story.

    Cultural traditions were honoured thoughtfully. Jeevan wore a sehra and arrived horseback on the wedding day, and Srgun was carried in an old-fashioned palki for her Vidaai.

    At the same time, modern elements brought freshness and personality to the experience. Guests were welcomed with a coffee cart at the ceremony, the couple made a helicopter arrival to the reception venue, and even details like a seating chart reflected their contemporary approach.


    Style as Storytelling

    From the very start, Jeevan and Srgun approached their wedding looks as a form of storytelling. Each event had its own mood, colour palette, and energy, and every outfit was styled to reflect both the moment and their shared vision.

    The pre-event was all about fun. Bright pinks and oranges set the tone, layered with mirror work that added shine and movement. Srgun’s look leaned into bold colour and playful hair accessories, while Jeevan wore a gold sherwani paired with a mirrored jacket vest. The looks felt joyful, expressive, and celebratory. It is no surprise that the jago festivities ended up being their favourite look of the entire weekend.


    A Regal Ceremony, Styled with Meaning

    For the Sikh wedding ceremony, the energy shifted to something more regal and symbolic. Srgun wore a soft pink lehenga embroidered with peacocks and greenery, a design that told a story through detail and craftsmanship. Gold embroidery added richness, while the overall palette felt romantic and intentional during their peaceful Anand Karaj.

    Jewellery played a major role in bringing this look together. Srgun worked closely with Pardaze to style her wedding jewellery, ensuring it complemented the outfit rather than competing with it. Her gold and pink jewellery was curated from Her Fashion Vault in Surrey, British Columbia, and paired with gold chura bangles from Gehna Jewellers, a unique choice that moved away from the traditional red and felt deeply personal to her style.

    Jeevan’s ceremony look was styled with the same level of thought. His cream sherwani featured delicate pink thread work embroidery that complemented Srgun’s outfit while still giving him a distinct look of his own. His jewellery was sourced from Paras in Surrey, British Columbia, and finished with a peacock-shaped kalgi worn in the morning that echoed the peacock motifs on Srgun’s lehenga. The connection was subtle, but intentional.


    Reception Glam with a Modern Twist

    The reception brought a refined, modern elegance to the weekend. Srgun wore a champagne and silver lehenga with a one-shoulder blouse and an attached veil, creating a sleek silhouette that felt contemporary and elevated.

    Although the outfit leaned modern, she wanted her jewellery to retain a traditional element. She had always envisioned wearing a passa. When the right piece could not be found, Pardaze worked closely with the couple to style and customize the reception jewellery. A necklace from Paras in Surrey, British Columbia was modified by adding small white motiyan so it would pair seamlessly with the passa and the rest of the set. The result was a look that balanced modern fashion with traditional detail in a way that felt effortless.

    Jeevan opted for a classic black tux, allowing the reception to feel timeless and polished while complementing Srgun’s look perfectly.

    As they shared their first slow dance, Jeevan and Srgun looked ethereal in their reception looks, her champagne and silver lehenga catching the light while his classic black tux grounded the moment, all as white smoke drifted across the room like clouds and a live singer filled the space.


    Designing Together, Not Separately

    “A wedding look is a story, and both partners need to be authors of it.”

    One of the defining elements of Jeevan and Srgun’s wedding style was how involved they were in each other’s looks. Every decision was collaborative. They wanted their outfits to complement one another, but they also wanted each person to genuinely enjoy what they were wearing.

    Details mattered. Matching fabrics during the jago. Coordinated colour palettes. Mirror-work juttiyan worn by both. Even the peacock motif that appeared across their ceremony looks was intentional. Styling became a shared experience that brought them closer together throughout the process.


    Inspiration Without Imitation

    Like many modern couples, Jeevan and Srgun turned to Pinterest and social media for inspiration. They scrolled, saved, and explored ideas, but never felt pressured to follow trends simply because they were popular. Inspiration was a starting point, not a rule.

    Their focus was always on creating looks they would be happy to look back on years from now.


    Why Styling Support Matters

    Having support throughout the styling process helped bring clarity when decisions felt overwhelming. Working with Pardaze allowed the couple to refine ideas, focus on details, and ensure that jewellery and outfits worked together cohesively. From curating ceremony jewellery to customizing reception pieces, styling played a key role in making each look feel complete.

    It is often the small details that make the biggest impact.



    Jeevan and Srgun’s wedding style stood out because it was intentional. Every look was personal. Every detail was considered. Being invited to profile their wedding and to work closely with them on styling their jewellery offered a deeper look at how collaboration and thoughtful design can elevate a celebration.

    They wanted to look back on their wedding and always feel happy about their choices. Judging by the care and creativity behind every look, their style will remain just as timeless as their memories.

    Congratulations to the stylish couple 🩷
