How did you manage to hold three back-to-back lock down weddings?
It was more to do to respect the sentiments of our guests who braved the odds of the COVID- 19 scenario, based on the word of commitment given by our entire Toshali Sands team, and delivered to the fullest of their expectations. All the three wedding guests had been referred by someone in their family who had earlier visited Toshali as a part of a wedding party, held earlier. The trust they placed in us was the motivating factor which helped us agree to their requirements, and duly execute them.
