It’s hardly been 24 hours since lovebirds Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor made us believe in ‘happily ever afters’ with their dreamy wedding! After dating each other for five years, the duo took a plunge and said ‘I Do’ in a close-knit ceremony attended by close friends and family on April 14, 2022.
Just like their intimate wedding affair, Alia and Ranbir kept things understated and lowkey when it came to their trousseau. The couple exuded understated elegance with their Sabyasachi wedding looks and it was all things love! Taking our breath away, Alia made for a minimalistic 'dulhaniya' with her ivory organza sari embroidered and handwoven tissue veil. As they say, minimalistic things create maximum impact, her customized bridal look had more elements than what met the eye. With the wedding being an intimate experience for the bride, the actress’ nuptial look featured some subtle elements that had a strong connection to her personality as well as her relationship with Ranbir.
Making a strong case for the saying, ‘Less is More’ here are some intricate details from Alia’s bridal look that makes her wedding trousseau intimate and EXCEPTIONAL!
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF 8 OR INFINITY
8 is considered as Ranbir’s lucky number and also when inverted, it symbolizes infinity, just like the duo’s love. And so Alia incorporated this subtle element both in her Sabyasachi mangalsutra and kaleeras.

While nothing about Alia’s bridal look was OTT, one can’t say it was underwhelming at all. The bride opted for minimalistic curated kaleeras from Mrinalini Chandra that featured elements like infinity or the number 8- something significant for the duo, along with clouds, stars, birds and butterflies that speaks a lot about Alia’s personality and the kind of person she is!

Etching April 14, 2022, in her heart forever, the actress immortalized her wedding date by inscribing it on what appears to be her wedding drape or veil. Also, advocating her sprightly personality, her blouse features butterflies embroidered on it, which comes off as a personal touch.
TAKING TRADITIONS FORWARD IN HER OWN WAY FT MINIMALISTIC CHOORA AND MEHENDI
Despite marrying into a big fat Punjabi Kapoor family, Alia took the traditions forward in her own way. Making subtlety her strong forte, she gave quintessential chooras a miss and opted for elegant Sabya kadas with red bangles. The icing on the cake was her minimalistic mehendi that accentuated the look of her engagement ring and neatly done nails.
SETTING A TREND RATHER THAN FOLLOWING ONE
Believe us, nothing about Alia’s look screamed quintessential celebrity bride and that’s what makes her stand apart from the rest of the lot. Especially her hair and makeup! Ditching the OTT glam, Alia opted for an understated, barely-there makeup look. Giving the trending floral buns a miss, she styled her lustrous locks in beach wave curls.
Fresh, unique and lovely…what did you think of Alia’s overall look?
