Radhika Merchant stunned in a stunning lehenga by designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla. The 29-year-old bride opted for a heavily embroidered ivory ensemble with red and gold accents, complemented by elegant jewellery.
Her outfit was a traditional interpretation of ‘Panetar,’ a Gujarati bridal tradition featuring red and white attire. The ensemble included a trailing ghagra layered with a detachable trail, a 5-metre head veil, and a tissue shoulder dupatta. The outfit was completed with a fully embroidered red shoulder dupatta that added dramatic flair to the silhouette.
Groom Anant Ambani looked regal in a golden sherwani for the occasion. The wedding celebration of Radhika and Anant Ambani took place at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai. The celebrations continue with ‘Shubh Aashirwad’ on July 13 and ‘Mangal Utsav,’ or the wedding reception, on July 14.
The high-profile wedding ceremony saw the presence of international celebrities, including Kim and Khloe Kardashian, John Cena, Priyanka Chopra, Nick Jonas, Rajinikanth, Mahesh Babu, Yash, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Vicky Kaushal, Shahid Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif, and Deepika Padukone, among others.
