Six years ago, on December 11, 2017, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli got married. Opting for an intimate wedding, the couple chose Borgo Finocchieto, an 800-year-old village-turned-villa, as the venue for their special celebration. Lavender, soft pink, and powder blue were the defining colors that graced Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli's nuptials. Anushka dazzled in an intricately embroidered soft pink lehenga crafted by renowned designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee. It took 67 skilled artisans and craftsmen a total of 32 days to hand embroider the lehenga in silk floss, featuring motifs of exotic birds and butterflies. Complementing her attire were traditional jewellery pieces including a mathapatti, layered necklaces, and jhumkas adorned with jadau, pearls, and pink spinel. Fresh hydrangeas adorned her hair, adding to her ethereal charm.
The pastel theme extended beyond the attire, with delicate pastel flowers stealing the spotlight at the ceremony. The wedding mandap showcased a deconstructed aesthetic, eschewing elaborate decorations for a more minimalist approach. Imported flowers from Holland adorned the canopy, while textiles gracefully draped around the four posts. White candles in glass lanterns hung from the ceiling, casting a romantic glow over the proceedings. Anushka's bridal march from the villa to the mandap was a brief yet enchanting journey, with a path lined with pastel flowers adding to the magical ambiance.
