“With the blessings of our family, we have tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony today. Being very private people, we celebrated this joyous occasion with our immediate family. As we embark on the journey of love and friendship, we seek all your blessings and good wishes,” Yami Gautam, the bride, wrote under the very first post after and from her wedding, where she was seen sitting next to her husband Aditya Dhar in her wedding saree.

Yami wore the marvelous deep red saree with gold jewellery. To give her a perfect Indian bridal look, she put on an embroidered bridal dupatta, odhani, like a veil. While her odhani featured intricate goldwork, her blouse stood out for its floral pattern. The ensemble was layered with a remarkable combination of items. Yami completed her wedding rig-out with a regal gold choker, haar, maang tikka, and kalire, along with traditional chooda bangles. Aditya, Yami’s husband, complemented her look in a classic ivory sherwani topped off with muted goldwork.

If you’re thinking of getting hitched in the near future as well, it may be a good idea to skip on heavy lehengas and instead, pick an heirloom-worthy saree that’s in the trend now.
