New Delhi: Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s highly anticipated wedding ceremony on July 12, 2024, was a grand affair in every aspect. From A-list Bollywood celebrities participating in the baraat processions to international stars dancing to Bollywood tunes, it was truly the wedding of the year. The bride, Radhika Merchant, looked stunning in a traditional Panetar lehenga for her wedding, but it was her vidai lehenga that captured our hearts.

Radhika Merchant wore a Banarasi brocade lehenga with a choli adorned with real gold work for her vidai.

This masterpiece of rich artistry was designed by Manish Malhotra and styled by Rhea, along with Shereen and Sanya Kapoor. The multi-panelled Banarasi lehenga in sindoori red was complemented by a blouse featuring real gold karchobi work, inspired by the traditional abho and the rich heritage of Kutch. The ensemble also included a brocade lehenga skirt, a silk dupatta, and a veil, echoing the artistry of the late 19th century.
