The Wedding Ceremony
What was different and special about the wedding held at the Grand Hyatt, Mumbai was that there was no Nikah ceremony or Hindu rites. It was a civil ceremony with a registrar performing the deed and the bride was walked down the aisle by her father. The brides lehenga was designed by her mother-in-law in red and gold while Fardeen Khan's outfit (a gift from his favorite designer Shahid Amir) was deep, electric blue in color with opulent resham and Lucknavi dhaaga work, highlighted with baadla thread and Swarovski crystal.
