The Mumbai Bride Diaries: Final Bridal Pictures

Hey guys,

I am sharing the bridal pics in this post today. Check out all the Bridal Diaries updates HERE, more about the Lakme Absolute Bridal Dream Team HERE and announcing Cory Walia as my bridal makeup artist HERE.

After the ‘bride in the making’ pics in the last post, here are the final pictures 🙂

One saree done :p I had to wear 2 sarees and one dupatta and all that jewellery amd manage walking,sitting, etc with that :/

The white saree shown in the above pic on the shoulder is the 2nd saree called the ‘Panetar’. And the dupatta, thank god the dupatta was not huge but still it was heavy.

Done with all three finally.

I loved the makeup! It was subtle and elegant, not overly done. No cakey foundation, the eyes were perfect and he used a burgundy lipstick on me which I never thought would look good on me, but he mixed 1-2 shades and the hint of pink looked nice.

Cory and his team did the hairstyle and jewellery placing also really well. Draping was the toughest coz two sarees were to be draped together where the red gharchoda is the main saree (Some Gujuratis have the panetar as the main saree and wear the gharchoda before the 4th phera) and panetar also goes together. They did it really well. Also they did the crisp gharchoda pleats with the help of a hair straightener! I had read about that tip but never got the chance to try it myself, finally it was tried on me 😀 And it really works in keeping the saree pleats together!!

I am really happy I got this opportunity to get my bridal makeup done by Cory Walia and his team. Thanks to Team Lakme and Cory Walia for making my special day more memorable 🙂 And thank you everyone for all the love and support throughout <3

P.S: Its also our one month anniversary in an hour 😀
