That Papa Don’t Preach Love Story - Yashi and Jayesh

That Papa Don’t Preach Love Story - Yashi and Jayesh

In 2017, on a spontaneous trip to Pune, Jayesh met someone who stayed with him long after the moment passed. He describes Yashi as “the most kind hearted and the softest person I’ve ever come across.” Their interaction was brief, but it left its trace, a single Instagram handle and an instinct he couldn’t quite name.

Time moved forward, and on a later trip to Jaipur, they crossed paths again. Separate plans, same city, same day. It was the quiet confirmation that the first meeting had not been incidental.

When wedding planning began, their search for cocktail outfits felt endless. “We were struggling for really long and couldn’t find THE outfit,” Yashi says. Nothing felt like it belonged to their story, even as they explored the world of bridal couture and luxury bridal wear, searching for the outfits they had envisioned for their big day.

 


Then, during a visit to The Dhan Mill, New Delhi, they noticed the newly launched Papa Don’t Preach Flagship Store and decided to step inside. Yashi remembers the moment with clarity. “When we entered the store it was SOOOO magical, the feeling was surreal.” The atmosphere made her feel like she had stepped into a younger version of herself. “The whole process made me feel like a little girl. It makes you feel like a real time princess.”

With the team guiding them, what once felt like an impossible search began to find direction. The experience stood out for its ease, shaped by what they describe as the best store staff for wedding shopping and a smooth bridal process that allowed decisions to unfold naturally. It led them to the Papa Don’t Preach outfits that felt instinctive and unmistakably their own.

What began as a chance meeting on a trip became a series of moments that led them here, choosing pieces that felt as thoughtful as the journey that brought them together. Looking back, Yashi says she would encourage brides to book their Papa Don’t Preach Dhan Mill appointment early and step into their dream wedding looks.
