Jyoti and Matt kept the reception
centerpieces low to promote
conversation, filling silver urns
with fresh summer blooms in
white, lavender and green.
Favors included custom USB
boom boxes with a short playlist
of Jyoti and Matt’s favorite
songs—some of which even
made the reception playlist.

The five-tier cake, created by the bakers behind TLC’s Cake Boss, was cookies and cream flavored and topped with wood figurines of the couple and their cats.
The pair danced to a live band’s rendition of the Pitch Perfect mash-up of “Just the Way You Are” and “Just a Dream” for their first spin as newlyweds.

Other music-related touches included a wall of vinyl records at the after-party entrance and
a boom box sign-in book. “We wanted to incorporate some of that joy into our selections
but not let it get too cheeky,” Jyoti says of the décor inspired by her and Matt’s love of concerts.
