Deepika Padukone who married Ranveer Singh in Italy this year, had two wedding ceremonies.

For her wedding as per Chitrapur Saraswat Brahmin traditions, Deepika wore a kanjeevaram red and gold Advaya sari from the House of Angadi, Bangalore. The saree, as per tradition was gifted to her by her mother Ujjala Padukone and styled by Sabyasachi Mukherjee.

Deepika's dupatta had the words 'sada saubhagyavati bhava' (be always blessed) written on it.

Like Deepika, Priyanka Chopra also had two different wedding ceremonies.

For her Indian wedding, she wore a custom designed Kanauj rose lehenga with heritage jewellery created by Sabyasachi Mukherjee.

'The colour red is probably the most evocative of North Indian wedding attire and is traditionally worked upon with gold or silver,' the designer wrote about his inspiration on Instagram.

Priyanka Chopra's neo-traditional bridal lehenga was the result of an active collaboration between the designer and the bride,' he added in the post.

When Yuvika got married to Prince Narula, she picked a beautiful handcrafted red velvet lehenga with exquisite embroidery which according to Maple Leaves media was designed by Bindani Official.

'The baroque wedding lehenga in ivory silk is first hand dyed, then embellished with resham embodying colours of roses and layered with finest of zardosi, rose gold dyed crystals, nakshi, beads and sequins,' it posted on its website.

'From start to finish the entire ensemble took over 4000 hours to finish, giving it the old world charm with the right balance of contemporary,' Maple Leaves media wrote about the outfit.

Isha Ambani

Like Deepika and Priyanka, Isha Ambani had one of the most expensive and fairytale weddings this year.

Designed by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, the ensemble was embroidered with dabka, bullion, silver and salma-sitara.
