Cricketer Hardik Pandya and his wife-actor Natasa Stankovic renewed their wedding vow on Tuesday. The two held their white wedding at a posh resort in Udaipur, Rajasthan, amidst their friends and family.
The couple shared pictures from their dreamy wedding on social media. While Pandya rocked a black tuxedo, Stankovic looked gorgeous in a white gown that was a reflection of a romantic fairytale.
The inspiration
Intricate detailing that reflects Stankovic's 'fierce romanticism'
Stankovic opted for the corseted bodice that came with natural pearls embroidered all over it from the shelves of Shantanu and Nikhil. The gown which came with a thigh-slit at the front was intricately embellished with cloud dancer beads, precious stones, and pearls.
Per the designers, the gown was inspired by the bride's "fierce romanticism" that she embodies.
Intricate detailing
The subtle details of the couple's initials
A piece from Shantanu and Nikhil's couture collection, Stankovic's pristine white gown had minute detailing of the love she holds for her husband.
The long tulle sleeves of the gown were designed with "subtle yet unnoticeable details of NH," the initials of Stankovic and Pandya.
These beautifully embroidered initials added a touch of customization to her wedding gown.
