The whimsical wedding
"The forecast predicted rain showers on the couple's special day. But the weather gods came through and blessed the couple with clear skies, the sun shining down on them," expressed Anita Dongre in an Instagram post. And we couldn't be happier, how else could we get to lay our eyes on the beauty of this wedding.
Benaisha always wanted to get married in pink. So, Anita Dongre exclusively designed a custom gota patti lehenga that had the bride's favorite quote embroidered on it. It read, "When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew." Isn't that sweet?
