Quirky Designer Masaba tied knot to producer Madhu mantena and the reception was grand affair with many bollywood celebrities in attendance. Masabas complete wedding looks and style have already been discussed about on our blog here and in this post we will focus on what the guests wore.



I did not connect much with Masaba Guptas wedding style as I found it too contemporary and futuristic but the guests attending her reception balanced things out well turning up in the ethnic best outfits. The outfits worn by bollywood guests were tradition with a touch of modernity which is what i expected Masaba to try. But anyway what is done is done and Iam no one to dictate to Masaba as to what she should wear on her important day so here i bring to you details on what the guests wore so you can inspire yourself for the upcoming wedding season.

Masaba Gupta's wedding

Famous Indian based designer Masaba Gupta tied the knot with Film producer Madhu Mantena officially a few months back and chose this month to celebrate the same with close family and friends. The celebrations kicked off a a friends place in JUhu and lasted for three day.Her outfits she sported at her wedding, reception, Mehendi , bridal shower and sangeet came as a surprise. She wore the most weird looking clothes to her wedding celebrations. We all know she is a designer but that doesn’t mean you dress up in lackluster clothes. Most of the outfits she chose to be spotted in were shouting ‘ JUST FOR THE RAMP’, which made me think if she broke up wit her BFF , I mean if all goes wrong there is always your bestie who would point out what is wrong and weddings are something were your friends advice you the most.
She  is youthful quirky apparel designer and selecting the same quirky clothes to wear on her wedding was a bad decision from the start. Congratulations to the newly wed but I do wish Masaba had chosen for bridal clothing instead of trying to look different on her own wedding. Many other celebrities in attendance to the wedding celebrations wore better clothes than the bride and bridegroom!
Masaba in Anamika Khanna - Wedding Reception Outfit

Masaba Gupta reception

I love Anamika Khanna outfits but Masaba choose this hideous outfit from all those pretty Anamika Khanna designs for her reception! Everything about the look is wrong, the hair the bust fit , the jacket is worst !
And not the bridegroom won’t be spared either! He should have put in a little extra effort to look good on a reception. Black on black looks dull and its an outfit my brother would have chosen to wear at a family function , forget a  reception !

Masaba Gupta In her Own Designs – Bridal Shower Outfit

The outfit looked more of a party look than a bridal shower one. The polka dotted top with a retro effect was a downer itself and the pants look boxy on her. A total nay from us !

Masaba Gupta sangeet

The only outfit I found pretty was the one she donned on her Sangeet, maybe it’s the color, it looks pretty on her. The hairstyle could have been better but there is no doubt this is dream outfit for many .
Masaba Gupta in Her own designs- Mehendi Outfit

We would have preferred some color for a mehendi outing . The white kurti along with the matchy sharara (or is that a lehenga?) just don’t work here. But it is a nice outfit considering the other disastrous outfits she chose to wear.
What do you think of her clothes, are they fit for a bride ? Yay or a nay? tell us!
Until next time

For the Christian wedding ceremony the bride wore a white Reema Acra gown embellished with swarovski crystals while the groom was seen in a three piece tom ford black suit with a bow tie.

It was a pink Anushree Reddy lehenga for mehendi  for Dipika . I love anushree reddy creations and this colour looked amazing on Dipika pallikal .

Dipika Pallikal made for a gorgeous bride owning every look of hers. I loved how she used so many colours in her wedding wardrode and worked them all like a perfect modern bride does. Also full marks for her make up too.
Wishing the couple a happy Married life .

When television star Gauhar Khan's sister Nigaar khan recently tied the knot in a destination wedding in Dubai we were treated to some amazingly fresh and fun ethnic outfits . The bride looked every bit gorgeous but what caught our attention really was the brides sister Gauhar Khan who kept her all her looks simple yet stylish. All sisters of Bride to be take note, this is serious style inspiration .

A mint green Ashtha Narang creation was what Gauhar opted for the Mehendi cum sangeet of her sister . Minimal accessories and open side swept  hair completed the simple look. The colour  with subtle gold shimmer works beautifully for the sister of bride for Mehendi .

You can buy similar Astha Narang Creations at pernias pop up shop here  and here 





For the Nikaah Gauhar decked up in Surendri by Yogesh Chaudhary pink and gold lehenga and accesoried the look with huge chand type bali earrings, bangles  and matha patti. The Make up was perfect and adding drama with a matha patti is a nice touch and good that she skipped neck jewellery too .




what do you think of Gauhar khans #DulhanKiBehan style? 

Young designer Nishka Lullas destination wedding to Dhruv Mehra was nothing short of a fairy tale. The wedding wardrobe designed by mom Neeta Lulla were all stunning as was the decor and attention to detail all caught via lens of team wedding nama .

Here are 5 ideas we at team blingsparkle want to steal form this exotic wedding

The rickshaw Photo Op : This trend isnt new and we have seen it quiet a few wedding in the recent past but Nishka and Dhruv totally stole the show with their choice of colours. Both dressed in yellow while the rickshaw had bright fun colors to complement with Nishka ki mehendi printed on it .  Perfect Photo Op this rickhshaw go hire one for your wedding and make sure you parade around the mehendi venue with your would be hubby in it .







Quirky Printed Cushions: These super cute cushions with maa ka ladla and papa ki pari printed on it are a must have in every mehendi . These can be easily personalized and look fabulous in photos



Bridal entry in a fuschia pink trail veil: Nishka Lulla had a dream wedding with everything planned to perfection and so was her bridal entry where in  she entered on a shikara in water with a long pink veil with  trail behind her. The ghoongat or the veil idea is my favorite one and i feel every bride should incorporate this in their wedding look as wedding the only time when you get to wear the veil without looking gimmiky .
You may not go to the dramatic lengths of entering on a shikara but you can definitely try the trail veil for your wedding.








The subtle Bride-Groom colour co-ordination : All through the Wedding Nishka And Dhruv had subtle co ordination of their outfits without going too matchy matchy . This couple sure do show us how a Bride and groom should properly co -ordinate outfits for the Big day .






Perfect summer wedding colours : For their temple wedding Dhruv and Nishka wore the perfect blend of vibrant colours . Love how summery and simple their outfits were . If you are having a summer wedding sticking to this colour pallet is the right way to go.

There has been a lot going on with our life offline in the past month all thanks to Ramazan. While we were busy shopping, fasting , praying, iftaar parties and preparing for eid the chocolate boy of bollywood tied the knot to Delhi girl Mira Rajput in a not so fat wedding .

I know iam really late to cover this wedding but Mira Rajputs  choice of clothes for all her wedding ceremonies are simply amazing and i HAD to talk about them all .




Lets start with their love story. Shahid kapoor and Mira Rajput 21, who just graduated from LSR college reportedly met at a Radha Soami Satsang which both their families follow.  How bollywoodish is that now? To add to things every time i look at a Mira Rajput Photo i find her more and more similar to Amrita Rao. what do you think? The wedding for fairly simple considering it was the most awaited bollywood wedding and i love how subtle Mira kept her outfits.

  Mehendi cum sangeet  : Mira Rajput kept it simple and breezy  in an Yellow and peach Anita Dongre lehenga choli . Mira dint go overboard with floral jewellery and i love her tikka here.







Haldi Cum Kalire ceremony : Mira sure loves yellows and pinks. For haldi she wore a yellow kurta with white plazzos and mogra tiara and haar .








The Anand Karaj : Shahid and Mira took vows in an Anand Karaj ceremony and for this Mira was spotted in apale pink and green gota patti salwar suit.  Mira kept the jewellery to minimum here and again opted for her pretty Mang Tikka.



Post wedding Party : I say post wedding party because the couple did not take any pheras in the lehenga, also Shahid and Mira had two separate receptions later on . For this occasion Mira chose a pink Anamika Lehenga which is  my favorite outfit from her entire wedding. It was simple , elegant and fresh. The styling was perfect with double dupattas, navratna haar, jhoomar , pink choodas, hair in a floral bun  and soft Make up .  I love love this whole look and Boy does Mira have amazing choice? She definitely is the next Fashionista of India. Shahid looked equally amazing in his white kurta. They made for a lovely couple.












The couple was spotted with yellow rose jaimalas . how cool is that? I prefer to genda and mogra haars anyday.








Delhi Reception: For the Delhi Reception Mira wore a pastel Anamika Khanna creation . This look featuring a gown with cape detailing was pretty modern and Kudos to Mira for taking the risk. I love capes but cape on a saree would have taken things to a whole new level , this gown + cape isnt my cup of tea though .





Mumbai Reception : For the Grand finale of sorts for this most talked about wedding of the year Mira Rajput chose Manish Malhotra white lehenga with blue embroidery on it. Pairing the lehenga with a crop top and just nirav modi earrings Mira was a vision of subtleness, confidence and simplicity . The Lehenga which was part of Manish Malhotreas latest Blue Runway collection dint find a fan in me and i definitely dint think of it to be bridal but Mira provesit all wrong and wears it so well.

First look at her outfit and i instantly missed a dupatta . May be she could add some bangles or even a bindi to her look but the more i look at her , i less i mind her non bridal ensemble. She looked amazing and it was her day lets give it to her for sticking to her individual style and loading herself with jewellery and bling .
As for Shahid he wore a Kunal Rawal tuxedo and bow tie. I wish he could match the bride better witrh a blue bow  , but well they looked fabulous togethera nd that is all that matters.









I think Keeping things simple all along worked well in Mira Rajputs favour and she stood out as one of the most elegant celebrity brides. Which bridal outfit of hers are you loving the most?
