And, to top it, if it’s a celebrity wedding, you can totally imagine the glitz and shine those lights which illuminate the whole arena. This is exactly what is happening at Sonam Kapoor’s wedding!
While everyone, be it friends or relatives looked dapper in their white-themed mehendi outfit, what outdid everything was Sonam Kapoor’s attire, make-up and jewellery. Everything blended so well that Sonam looked no less than an angel who came down straightaway from abode! Need we say that she looked like a diva at her mehendi function?
So did you manage to guess as to who created Sonam’s beautiful ivory and gold lehenga? Much to many of your correct guesses, her beautiful mehendi outfit was put together by none other than, Sonam’s favourite designer duo, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla. And you know what? It took Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla’s team, 18 months to complete this masterpiece! Don’t believe us? Hear it from the ace designers themselves, “This ensemble is a labour of love and joy. Sonam is our absolute favourite and for her wedding it had to be a fantasy piece that set new creative standards for us in order to do full justice to her and this sacred occasion. She ordered it two years ago and it’s taken multiple teams of artisans eighteen months to create,” quipped the designer duo, Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.
