Anshula Kapoor on wearing red for her receptionFor the celebrations, the new bride opted for a red fusion ensemble while the dashing groom contrasted perfectly in shades of black and gold. Sharing a closer look at her ensemble, the bride wrote, "For our cocktail, I knew I wanted to wear red. It is my first evening as a married woman, celebrating this new chapter and somehow sindoori red felt like the only colour that made sense."
Elaborating about the thought that went into the creation of the sensemble, she said, "I wanted it to feel like a metaphor for who I am. Starting with a Banarasi brocade sari, @amitaggarwalofficial deconstructed and reimagined it into a sculptural corseted silhouette, preserving the beauty of its original drape while transforming the pallu into a contemporary couture statement. It honoured tradition without feeling bound by it. And I think that’s exactly what this entire wedding has been about. Holding on to where I come from, while wholeheartedly embracing everything that’s ahead."
Janhvi Kapoor looked ethereal as she dazzled in a shimmering lavender-gold saree and paired with statement diamond jewellery.
Taking to her social media account, Anshula shared a series of stunning bridal portraits from her wedding festivities.
