The pandemic had dampened this couple's wedding planning just like it had done to thousands of others worldwide. But that didn't deter them from dreaming about their perfect D-day and eventually, bringing it to reality. After an year-long delay, when the duo finally said, 'I do' to each other, everything was picture perfect and straight out of a fairytale.
The bride wore the prettiest outfits for each of their nuptial ceremonies and rocked them all. Not to mention, she looked absolutely ethereal in her wedding lehenga by Sabyasachi. And Happyframes did an impeccable job in capturing all these priceless moments rather beautifully.
Meet Shivani & Siddhant
"We met at a party in 2014 in Indore and clicked instantly. We became great friends soon after and started dating in 2015. However, I was all set to go to the US for further studies. So for 4 years, we had our dates on FaceTime calls. But when it’s true love, distance really does not matter. In January 2020, we got engaged and then the pandemic happened. Since both of us wanted to celebrate with all our friends and family, we decided to wait for things to get better. In December 2021, we finally got married," shares the bride.
Cocktail
With dollops of glitz, glamor and performances by the likes of Jassie Gill, this one was a mega affair. Both the bride and groom dressed to kill in their Gaurav Gupta numbers and danced the night away with their close friends and family.
Wedding
The couple looked regal in their traditional light-hued ensembles for the shaadi rituals. Needless to say, we LOVED the way Shivani styled her Sabyasachi lehenga and her groom complemented her well in his Sabya attire. *Applies virtual kaala teeka to the made-for-each other jodi!*
Reception
They wrapped it up in style with an extravaganza for the reception!
From The Bride:
We got married on 1st of December in 2021, after getting engaged in January, 2020. We had decided to wait for Covid to settle down a bit. It’s not a celebration when you don’t have all your friends and family with you, and we are big on celebrating! Both of us wanted each and every ritual, and tradition to be enjoyed by everyone present, no matter how small it was. I always wanted everything to be celebrated with grandeur, music and dance. We both wanted a Big Fat Indian Wedding.
While picking out my outfits for each function, I was certain that no outfit should be similar looking. Each look to be different and I also wanted to be comfortable and enjoy every moment. Meanwhile, Siddhant made sure he stays true to his style - subtle with a dash of glamour. Every outfit was edgy and also super comfortable.

As a bride-to-be, I had lots of questions about trousseau. While packing my trousseau, I wanted to make sure I have a variety of unique as well as the must have clothing-items for a bride. All the articles about how prepare for the big day, what outfits are a must for the trousseau, different bridal hairstyles, etc. were a big help for me! Thank you, WMG! It also helped me make a checklist of things and deciding the timeline for it.

It was a great choice to select them for our big day! Our portraits were beautiful! We had looked at many options but we were not satisfied with some and the ones we did like, were already booked. Then we came across Happy Frames’ profile and we really loved them. Paying attention to every detail and acknowledging our needs was their top priority. They were indeed a great choice.
