Garba: Heritage in Motion ✨

Garba is not just a dance — it is a living memory of centuries, a rhythm of devotion, and a celebration of life itself.

The word "Garba" comes from the Sanskrit "Garbha" meaning womb, symbolizing creation and life. Traditionally performed around a clay pot with a lamp, it honors the feminine divinity of Goddess Shakti. The circular dance represents the cyclical nature of life — with the Goddess as the constant, unmoving center.

Dandiya Raas, once performed as a reenactment of Durga’s battle with Mahishasura, merged with Garba over time — bringing together men and women in a powerful, joyful expression of unity and devotion.

At its heart, Garba is more than music and movement. It is heritage, symbolism, and spirituality woven into every circle. This Navratri, as we dance in circles, may we feel the eternal connection to life, energy, and the divine Goddess.

✨ SAB Bridal Bazaar 2025 ✨

On September 7th, we had the honor of being part of SAB Magazine’s Annual Bridal Bazaar at the beautiful Hotel Avalon. With over 500 attendees, this show was filled with energy, inspiration, and incredible wedding industry talent.

Our booth design, brought to life by the amazing Blushed Decor was inspired by the Sabyasachi-inspired lehenga I wore that day—elegant, bold, and full of timeless detail. ✨

It was such a joy connecting with newly engaged couples, families, and fellow creatives as we step into another festive wedding season 💫

"Two hearts, two cultures, one unforgettable love story. Aparna and Blake’s multicultural wedding was a vibrant fusion where Tamil tradition met American charm — a beautiful harmony of two cultures came together.

1) NOT BELIEVING IN MYSELF
I could easily write a book on this topic. I think women are somehow conditioned to believe that they need to do more. Cook more, clean more, workout more, create a healthier work-life balance etc... As a result, sometimes you end up actually not believing in yourself as much as you should. So surround yourself with positive, like-minded people who uplift your spirits and cheer for you!

2) NOT RESIGNING FROM MY 9-5 JOB SOONER
I spent many years of my corporate career trying to figure out what I wanted to accomplish professionally. Although I loved my job, oftentimes I found myself running the rat race. Something inside me felt empty and I felt like I had no real purpose in life. So glad that I took a big leap of faith and continued chasing my dreams.

3) NOT INCREASING MY PRICES
Initially, to build your base in the market, most vendors keep their prices very minimal. I actually now regret doing so, because I worked too hard and got paid very little. I learnt soon enough that lowering my price would do more harm in the long run. Do your research and stay competitive in the market.

4) NOT KNOWING & VALUING MY WORTH
For the longest time, I underestimated what I brought to the table. More than a decade of experience later, I know better. I'm glad that I found my true worth and I learnt not to settle for anything less than what I deserve.

5) NOT HIRING A CORE TEAM SOONER
My team is my biggest strength. I wish I would've expanded into a bigger team sooner. They are the backbone of what I do and I am what I am because of them.

~ Client Testimonial ~

"James & I brought Ushma and her team on approximately 6 weeks prior to our multi-day, multi-cultural event. Ushma quickly learned about our nontraditional vision and connected with our vendors to help execute a perfect weekend for us, our family and friends. Her attention to detail was unmatched, from ensuring display tables were aesthetically pleasing, to vendor set ups to making sure James & I were fed and hydrated throughout the weekend. Her professionalism and service were not only noticed by the two of us but by many of our guests as well. We are thankful to have hired her team. The only change we would make if we were to do this all over again would be bring Desai Designs on sooner!"
