Bollywood weddings are expected to be OTT and larger-than-life. But while many celebrities don’t shy away from going all out, there are some who like to keep it as low-key as possible. In the fashion department, this translates to brides ditching the quintessential heavy designer lehengas for graceful sarees. Here is a list of seven celeb brides who did exactly that:
Alia Bhatt In Her Ivory Organza Drape
Alia Bhatt got hitched to her childhood crush Ranbir Kapoor in 2022. The actress looked breathtaking in an ivory Sabyasachi drape which featured tilla work. She paired it with a handwoven tissue veil and statement Sabyasachi jewels to complete her look.
Dia Mirza In Her Scarlet Banarasi
Dia Mriza’s wedding was all things unconventional. She had a priestess to conduct her wedding rituals and her wedding took place in her backyard. Keeping in theme with her fuss-free wedding, Dia ditched the heavy bridal lehenga and wore a stunning red Banarasi saree instead. She added a solid red dupatta to complete her look.
Yami Gautam In Her Mom’s Saree
Unlike other celebrities who opt for big fat weddings, Yami Gautam and Aditya Dhar tied the knot in an intimate ceremony. The actress didn’t even hire any MUAs and got her sister to do her bridal makeup. And instead of wearing an expensive designer lehenga, she wore her mother’s red saree, gold nath, and her grandmother’s red veil.
Manvi Gagroo In Her Lacy Red Saree
Four More Shots Please! actress Maanvi Gagroo got hitched in a hush-hush wedding with stand-up comedian Kumar Varun. For the ceremony, Maanvi wore a sheer Shantanu Goenka red drape. The saree was a perfect mix of modern and traditional. She paired it with a sleeveless blouse and a matching veil.
Patralekha Paul In Her Inscribed Sabyasachi
For her wedding with Rajkummar Rao, Patralekha wore a stunning red Sabyasachi saree. The tulle drape featured heavy embroidery. She added a red net veil her fit with auspicious Bengali verses inscribed on the border. Patralekha completed her look with handcrafted Sabysachi jewels.
Rhea Kapoor In Her Chanderi Saree
Just like her sister Sonam Kapoor, Rhea Kapoor is known for her stellar sartorial picks. And her wedding attire was no different. For her wedding, she wore an ivory chanderi saree with statement cutout work details on the border and a long trail. However, it was the vintage pearl bead veil that stole the show.
Well, these celeb brides are proof that you can never go wrong with a classic drape!
