Sukriti and Aakriti have created a lovely haldi outfit that stole our heart. The bride was inspired by Rhea Chakraborty’s appearance in this heavily hand-embroidered printed sharara set.

Wedding
Immersed in the ethereal beauty of the sun-drenched beach, the couple’s sundowner wedding unfolded with sheer elegance. The stage for their enchanting varmala ceremony was gracefully poised atop the shimmering pool, adorned with a remarkable display of couple’s initials, K+A. Every element, meticulously curated, painted a picture of timeless romance against the breathtaking backdrop of the beach.
However, the true highlight of the wedding was the exquisite outfit that the bride personally envisioned. With an unwavering desire for perfection and personalization, she collaborated with a talented team of artisans and artists from Calcutta, led by her designer maasi, Shagun Pathak. A bold expression of style within an understated color palette, this 18-Kali lehenga embodied the essence of grandeur and artistry. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship of the lehenga left us in awe.
The groom’s outfit by Shantanu and Nikhil was truly exceptional, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who witnessed it.

It was an ensemble that left an indelible mark on the memories of all who beheld it.
Reception
The reception at the Leela Palace Bangalore was an incredibly special event, filled with love and joy.

The venue was transformed into a mesmerizing space, with simple yet elegant arrangements that showcased the beauty of this symbolic fruit.
Becoming a Sabyasachi bride was a dream come true for Kashish, as she adorned herself in an exquisite saree that radiated elegance and grace. The silver grey woven Banarasi satin silk saree enveloped her in its ethereal charm, while the zari work shimmered under the spotlight, beautifully complemented by the emerald jewellery she carefully selected (made by jeweller from Raipur).
