An Elegant Kolkata Wedding With The Bride In A Ravishing Engagement Lehenga

When we saw Karnika & Vaibhav's engagement cake, we were in awe. It was pretty, unique and looked absolutely delicious. Add to that the beautiful outfits Karnika wore, and the glam decor, and this wedding was truly gorgeous. Karnika looked stunning in a blush pink lehenga she opted for her engagement. She shined as a bride and the details of her outfit were truly spellbinding. Whereas, her wedding outfit was a little offbeat with a colour that we don't often see on brides. She carried that look effortlessly too. Malvika Periwal Photography★ 5 shot this wedding in stunning detail!

The Wedding 

From The Bride: 

We wanted a wedding that would be intimate, elegant, simple, vibrant and super fun! We did a staycation in the city with our close friends and families and had a 3 day long affair - starting off with the haldi, a sundowner mehendi, bhaat, reception and finally a morning wedding on day 3. We knew we wanted a simple morning wedding with near and dear ones. The key word for our theme was minimalistically graceful.

Vendor Reviews:

Makeup Artist: Bithika Benia
She was very co operative, friendly and executed my ideas well. I gave her my perspective, conveyed my preferences along with references. Her execution was amazing and her work was great. I wanted my looks to be very fresh and natural and she understood my ideas accurately. 

Decorator: Arup & Samrat
They are Calcutta based decorators who have worked with our family for a long time. Yet again, they executed our ideas beautifully. We discussed themes, ideas and researched on decor elements. They got our ideas to life in a wonderful way. 

Wedding Planner: Opus Creation
They were only involved to an extent. Our families were extremely hands on with every detail and aspect and they provided a steady support throughout.
