After getting married at her father’s picturesque farmhouse in Khandala on January 21, Athiya Shetty posted some lovely pictures on social media.

She made such a pretty bride that K L Rahul couldn’t keep his eyes off her.

Describing Athiya and Rahul’s haldi outfits, Ami writes, ‘The magic of Vintage Ritu Kumar @athiyashetty chose to wear this gorgeous ivory cotton and intricate handmade gold gota work anarkali and gharara skirt from @ri_ritukumar.

‘This recreation of vintage RK in that old chai dipped cotton fabric and the antique gold work that took 2000 hours to embroider was just the perfect mix of comfort and luxury for Athiya’s Haldi look.’

Anika Dhawan, who decorated the venue for haldi ceremony, writes, ‘When I met Athiya, I knew instinctively that this wedding was going to be special. Our aesthetics matched perfectly, there was balance, honesty and trust.

‘We knew how to feed off each other to create and build. Every layer of the decor was detailed and I cant tell you how much FUN we had. The storyline for each day was different yet the foundation of our design stayed intact.

‘The haldi was a blooming marigold garden with layers from floor to ceiling. We detailed every tiny corner. It was intimate and beautiful. The sun was shining, marigolds were dancing and there were two families celebrating love!’

‘A pure georgette lehenga which is embellished all over with baby pearls and sequins.. this piece was encrusted with over 39,000 Swarovski crystals. Thank you for choosing to wear a handwoven heirloom piece.’
