Bridal outfits and bright reds used to go hand in hand. But not anymore. Bollywood brides have been increasingly embracing pastel hues over the traditional red for their wedding ensembles. Following in the footsteps of Sonakshi Sinha, several celebrity brides have opted for muted, understated colors enhanced with intricate embroidery and crystals.
Sonakshi Sinha
The latest to join the pastel brigade is Sonakshi Sinha, who tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend Zaheer Iqbal on June 23. For her big day, Sonakshi upcycled her mother Poonam Sinha’s ivory wedding saree. She looked beautiful in this embroidered vintage ensemble paired with jewellery from her mother’s exquisite collection.
Alia Bhatt
For her intimate home wedding with Ranbir Kapoor, actor Alia Bhatt chose a breathtaking hand-dyed ivory organza saree by celebrity designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee. The saree featured tilla work, while her veil was made of embroidered tissue. Alia wore her wedding saree once again to receive a National Award for her performance in Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022).
Parineeti Chopra
On her wedding day, when she tied the knot with Aam Aadmi Party leader Raghav Chadha, actor Parineeti Chopra wore a hand-crafted lehenga by her good friend and celebrity designer Manish Malhotra. Her ecru-hued wedding lehenga featured hand embroidery with gold thread and was paired with a mesh blouse. At the back of her tulle veil was her groom Raghav’s name.
Anushka Sharma
One of the most iconic Bollywood brides, Anushka Sharma, also opted for a pastel-hued ensemble for her wedding with cricketer Virat Kohli. Anushka looked ethereal in a heavily decorated, pastel-hued Sabyasachi lehenga in a delicate pink with intricate floral motifs.
Kiara Advani
Bride of 2023, Kiara Advani wore a gorgeous custom ombre lehenga in hues of empress rose, designed by Manish Malhotra. The ensemble was embellished with Swarovski crystals, adding a subtle sparkle to the pastel look.
