Some weddings are straight out of a dream, and this one was exactly that! Set against a majestic backdrop, this regal wedding was every architect-bride’s fairytale come true! With a love for breathtaking design and attention to detail, real bride Aayushi envisioned her wedding and brought it to life. From an emotional varmala ceremony set over a fountain (yes, you read that right!) to three days of thoughtfully curated celebrations, this wedding wasn’t just about opulence, it was about creating moments that their loved ones would cherish forever, with some brilliant ideas and inspiration in tow. Take a look.
Meet Aayushi and Haard
Our story began three years ago in Goa, during two separate bachelor and bachelorette trips. One of my friends knew his group, so we invited them to a party. Although I met his friends, we missed talking to each other. Ten days later, his biodata arrived through a marriage bureau—a coincidence that felt like fate.

About The Wedding
Our wedding took place on December 5, 2024. As an architect, I always dreamed of a wedding venue with breathtaking architecture that would captivate everyone. ITC Grand Bharat, with its regal, palace-like design, was the perfect choice—a space that blended grandeur with elegance.
The varmala ceremony was the centerpiece of the celebration. I envisioned it to be a moment filled with love, grandeur, and pure energy—and it exceeded all expectations. The stage, built over the fountain, with the stunning backdrop of the property, created a magical setting. Friends and family were moved to tears, and the atmosphere was electric with emotion and joy.
For me, this wedding wasn’t just about grandeur; it was about creating an unforgettable experience for our loved ones. Across three days, every detail was carefully planned—from the intricate décor to the warmth and joy of the celebrations. It was a dream come true, a memory etched in our hearts forever.
Bridal Outfits
For the Mehendi function, I wore a beautiful purple lehenga with intricate floral motifs by Ridhi Mehra. For the welcome lunch, I chose a striking red western dress by Varun and Nidhika, which felt bold and elegant. For the Sangeet, I desired something blingy, so I opted for a contemporary greyish-blue lehenga by Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna. For the Haldi ceremony, I decided to move away from the traditional yellow and embraced a pastel light green lehenga made of lace by Rose Room, which felt fresh and modern. As for the wedding outfit, I was initially set on red, but when I tried on a fuchsia lehenga by Tarun Tahiliani, I was immediately captivated by its vibrancy. I tried both the red and fuchsia versions of the lehenga, and without a second thought, the fuchsia was the clear choice.
