Parineeti and Raghav tied the knot in Udaipur on Sunday and the first pics of the ceremony were released where we saw the bride in cream and gold Manish Malhotra lehenga and the groom in Pawan Sachdeva. The two were spotted Monday heading out from Udaipur to Delhi first with her wearing a pink poncho and denims and then switching into a Manish Malhotra kurta suit.
Our congratulations to the newly weds.

The bride and groom look gorgeous! I am not sure if those are tourmalines worn with the wedding outfit, but they offer a lovely addition to the pastel theme rather than emeralds
its russian emeralds .yes beautiful it looks
I dont like the design of the necklace but I thought the colours were lovely.. the pale green contrasts well with the grooms pink shawl/ stole
They look lovely! But somewhere I started missing the indian elements completely removed from the weddings, the decor on sides of the ramp and colors, everything represent western/non-indian like most weddings these days. Missing the traditional colors, indian native flowers, no trace of haldi kumkum or coconut or jasmine or marigolds, no indian weaves, no flower petals stuck in hair, no colorful chaadars. It is almost like they are all considered untidy/uncool/too middle class. Sorry for the rant, not meant at this couple but in general!
not completely removed. they’re both dressed in Indian attire, wearing garlands etc.
I miss the flowers. Good old mogra/malli and damascus/panneer roses left fragrant memories of weddings. Now there’s baby’s breath and prickly fabric elements in malas. Such is life. The old gives way to the new. Some changes leave trails of sadness, some are welcomed.
The couple looks lovely. Congratulations! I remember being struck by Parineeti in a striped black & gold saree in Meri Pyaari Bindu. Any good movies I missed after that?
Many of us dislike plucked flowers (best left on plants). I do and ensured my wedding did not have these. I also dislike silk, as vegans, and we wore simpler themes. Many of us now have opinions. It is the new tradition and people are choosing and not having parents decide.
“Many of us”? I doubt that. I’ve yet to see a wedding or celebration without flowers, in the West or in homeland. Still, I respect that you chose to stand by your beliefs.
post pandemic and we still have issues with fusion weddings! live & let live.
It is the current style but doesn’t mean it can’t be discussed. OP said it respectfully.
You can do as you like and keep it simple. But the general flavour is not very Indian. We are doing our version of the white wedding which reflects on the present generation.
It is the sad beige aesthetic that is all over instagram. From children’s rooms to home decor, everything has to be beige. I am so over it. Give me back my primary colors.
I can feel it coming because who wants this dull life? Homes are too grey, furniture is too modern, clothes are too beige, jewelry is too blingy but boring… everything is insipid and monotone. We’ll come full circle with color and style very soon and I can’t wait.
unless it’s inappropriate, it shouldnt be an issue. For example, a Muslim bride should be modest – it’s a religious, rather than cultural requirement. So she can choose to be modest in a white wedding or in a neon wedding. Nothing to discuss.
Hasee toh Phasee . With Siddharth Malhotra . I love this movie . Very well made and Parineeti’s acting is fantastic
Thank you for the reco!
I enjoyed sandeep aur pinky farar
Yes! I was surprised, didn’t expect to like Sandeep aur Pinky Faraar as much as I did.
Oh gosh, you’re so spot on. I love her bubbly personality but the over dose of pastels, no bindi, no color, no mogras and yellow flowers or anything festive gives it a very bleak vibe. For the first time, I actually felt that the groom looked more festive than the bride and even he sports a kumkum tikka.
I really missed the festive feel of the beautiful Indian wedding that is so unique and exuberant
you hit the nail on the head. I agree with every single word. It’s not just plucked flowers she’s talking about. Yes the haldi kumkum, visible sindoor, mangal sutra, rich colorful fabrics for clothing and decor, metal and clay pots, copper and silver pooja items, etc etc etc – any combination of these things makes it quintessentially an Indian wedding. it is starting to look more and more non indian in every way – again, it’s not a comment about this particular wedding alone.
They both are looking dreamy. color is very classy paired pastel emerald jewelry .I cant believed that manish has designed this non tacky dress because he cant even do pastel without making it tacky somehow. All the best to the happy color
Pari looks gorgeous and Mr. Chadha looks so spiffy.
The colour of the gems looks so lovely against the white lehenga.
Both looks gorgeous! But why no Bindi?!
I don’t want to come across as a Bindi Nazi, but it just looks so weird without one, especially in the Hindu ceremony
I think it was Sikh wedding…
It was a Hindu wedding:
1 Sikh weddings are always conducted in the morning.
2 In an Anand Karaj, groom always walks in front of the bride during pheras (as in the photo here), and the couple does not hold hands – the bride holds the grooms shawl
3. They conducted saptapadi – photo was released on other sites
4. In very traditional Sikh weddings there is no jai mala
5. Parineeti is wearing a mangalsutra in the photos at the airport – there is mangalsutra in Sikh weddings.
Needed to edit –
2. In Anand Karaj groom walks in front in all pheras. In the photo released Pariniti is walking in front
5. No mangalsutra in Sikh weddings
Understood, thanks…
Oh my sooo pretty pastel, love their wedding outfits. Parineetis lehengas is heavy and yet looks so lite. Also love the lime suit look. I’m not a fan of big jewels, no critic but less huge stones add more elegance.
Shocked at the criticism in comments. Please spare a bride on her wedding day. Her day, her choice. Just wish them well and do what you think is lacking on your own big day!
Thank you
My words
Both look gorgeous.. I somehow feel it gives the same look of anushka- virat wedding …
It gives Alia like white bride … considering Alia was quite recently she could change up a bit more but damn they wow n gorgeous
It’s a day that will stay with her for the rest of their lives. I don’t think she should have been thinking about what other actresses did and what was recent versus what she loves and wants on her big day!
For all those saying where is the bindi/flowers etc etc.. this is a Punjabi wedding.Fewer Punjabi/Delhi women wear bindi, kumkum etc than other Hindu women. In fact, they look and dress more similar to Pakistani punjabi women than women from other Hindu communities. And this shared history is exactly why the subcontinent is a complex and fascinating place!!!
Being a Punjabi Hindu with half of my family being Sikh, I have never heard this.
Sikh women do not wear bindis or sindoor, but Hindu women do. Sindoor/kumkum is an integral part of the Punjabi Hindu wedding.
She copied Kiara’s style, just darker colors.
Kiara wore comparatively darker pink and darker emralds.
She did the same, even design of the necklace, even venue- ish.
Being Parineeti, I thot she would be a bit original.
The pink outfit with “chappals” looks bad. Is this how you make your 1st appearance as a married couple. Lord have mercy!!
A very conscious & curated effort to steer away from the traditional wedding mantra starting with the mehendi to jewelry , decor to their outfits .They look great but at this point these looks are becoming boring lol.
Pastel wedding, white clothes, modern hairstyles: No traditional feeling.
Red and orange wedding with sada suhagan raho: So regressive.
Loads of pics on social media: How gauche.
3 pictures released on social media: How pretentious.
Am surprised more celebs don’t just opt to get a court wedding done and never share pictures with this no-win situation.
Exactly. The comments are so harsh and unbelievable.
Have to agree – it’s a personal choice, what is with the policing…
The hate on this post is unbelievable!
This was her special day n we should respect her choice to wear the color she chooses to!
P&P either turn off comments on bridal posts or don’t post at all.
No one deserves such hate for their big day!
I think that the colours of the wedding outfits and the decor are too pretentious.
She has 100% copied Alia Bhatt and Kiara Advani. She should have been more original. I think the negative comments are justified for this reason alone. She looks bland and bleak without colors and a bindi.
It’s a private ceremony, don’t understand this criticism. Let’s just be happy for the happy couple.
Sometimes I think P&P should disable comments for wedding pics
They look gorgeous and happy.
Try not to be bored by five years of pastel weddings if you didn’t get bored by centuries of red weddings.
Her day. Her aesthetic. End of.
Haha, very well put that second line there! Jiyo…
I think designers need to create trends in order to fuel demand. Sabya is so great at this. Pastel celebrity brides followed by traditional colours. Everyone feels one step behind and is clamouring for the most recent trend. In the end though, the bride decides what works for her and onlookers will reveal their own frustrations which make no difference!
People need to chill and know the meaning of hate,
No one is “hating” on the couple most said they look good. They are discussing current wedding trends in India and what they don’t like there and that is perfectly OK for a fashion blog.
This!! Nobody is hating on them . Everyone is expressing their opinion on bridal trends since this is a bridal post
The Bindigate 😀
Hindu here, married, can’t remember when I wore bindi or sindoor last time.
I did not wear a bindi in my wedding (Bindi and nose piercing were my absolute NO).
It’s ok to do whatever you damn well please in YOUR wedding. Whatever happened to leave the brides and grooms alone pact we had.
Kiara’s outfit was in a pastel shade, however, this is just white. It made more sense for Alia to have a white wedding outfit because they didn’t have much time to organize the event so they didn’t have much time to choose. Also with Alia, the bride and groom are from diverse communities so it made more sense to choose something neutral. Alia is part kashmiri and part gujarati and has muslim, christian and hindu parents and grandparents and Ranbir is punjabi and part hindu and sikh i think. Parineeti and Raghav are from similar backgrounds so they didn’t have any reason to go so neutral unless they were trying to be pretentious.
There is such a thing as a personal aesthetic – Adults in their (20s and) 30s don’t need to justify why they went for a certain decor or a certain colour for their wedding attire.
So much discussion on the wedding outfit, religion, culture or lack of…
And here I was thinking, how did they change their clothes mid-air and why ? ?
High heel confidential, you guys have to do some research, groom outfit is from Pawan Sachdeva!
Thanks!
I’m tired of pastel wedding outfits of late. That said she did look lovely.
