The only way to sum up 2020 is as an unprecedented year. As expected at the beginning of 2020, not every alleged soon-to-be-married couple had tied the knot this year due to the pandemic. But for couples, the new normal proved to be a new beginning of their lives. In August, we had witnessed the beautiful union of Rana Daggubati and Miheeka Bajaj as theirs was the first celebrity wedding in the lockdown. Since then began the wedding fever in the showbiz world and today, we are all set to witness the ‘I Do’ ceremony of Niharika Konidela and Chaitanya Jonnalagadda.

In an interview with The Times of India, Niharika Konidela’s stylist, Ashwin Mawle revealed the themes of the ceremonies and how the bride had coordinated her outfits in the tune of the same. Ashwin was quoted as saying, “Niharika’s wedding wardrobe has everything from kurtas and palazzo sets to pattu sarees and lehengas. Each outfit matches the colour scheme and theme of the event. The sangeet ceremony had a ‘Glam n Glossy’ theme, so she went for a classy emerald green gown with sequins. For the mehendi and sun-downer, the theme was ‘Indian Vibrant’, so it saw her don a lilac dress and later on, a lehenga in rainbow colours. For the haldi today she has picked a yellow kurta-palazzo set, and for the wedding, there’s a specially woven kanjeevaram pattu saree in onion pink and gold, in tune with the theme — ‘Royal Affair’. As for the reception on Friday, she will be wearing a lehenga that’s straight out of a fairy tale.” (Also Read: Shaheer Sheikh And Ruchikaa Kapoor's Unseen Candid Pictures And Videos From Their Registered Wedding)
