When two people are passionate about each other, the universe conspires to bring them together. It is so beautiful to see how the sacred bond of marriage converts sweethearts into life partners. This sacred ceremony binds two souls together for their entire life. So, how can brides and grooms miss out on looking their best on this special day?
Shruti Shah, a fun-loving and high-on-life girl, shared her story of her dream proposal and how she finally ended up choosing her bridal outfit over a video call. Presenting the beautiful narration by the bride about her entire wedding experience.

The Hardik Pandya-style Proposal
Shruti always wanted a dreamy proposal in Paris, but Dewang had something else in mind. On her 30th birthday, he surprised her by inviting their friends to party while sailing. Shruti was already on cloud nine looking at the set-up for her birthday party, but when they reached the riverside, Dewang bent down on his knees and proposed to her. Her happiness knew no boundaries. And the saga of a real wedding started on a filmy note. And guess what? Everything had been unique and like a fairy tale for Shruti since then.

Lehenga Love: Click to Chic
Shruti’s story is actually remarkable because she booked her wedding lehenga on a video call. YES! You heard it right, and this is what happened to her. Shruti, who lives in the US, was on a video call with her sister, who was in the Mumbai KALKI store during those wedding shopping days. Shruti had no time to fly to India to choose her wedding lehenga, and she only wanted a proper Indian bridal lehenga because, you know, “Phir bhi dil hai Hindustani”.
And who else can you trust with such a big decision other than your loving sister? (Only two sisters can relate to this feeling of always having each other’s back). This was literally the most difficult decision of her life because she was first deciding on the wedding lehenga only based on a video call. Second, she was picking up her wedding lehenga choli without even trying it. But the stunning lehenga choli by KALKI stuck with her in her mind, and she said, Yes! This YES was probably more difficult than saying YES to Dewang on that yacht.

Dazzling Details
Deep-toned lehengas have always held their place as an Indian bridal wear trend. Living in the USA but being desi at heart, Shruti picked up a maroon and rust-orange bridal lehenga set. The opulent bridal lehenga collection at KALKI caters to all bridal needs, from subtle to royal.

Stitched in raw silk with a net dupatta, Shruti’s lehenga was a meticulously crafted piece. The luxurious zardozi work with mesmerizing aari work embroidery gave the lehenga a royal appeal. To embrace the feminine side of the bride, the velvet blouse came with a stunning plunging V-shaped neckline and sleeves extending up to the elbow. Each of the two captivating dupattas had a role to play in uplifting the look of the bride. The lighter one added an ethereal touch, while the heavier one complemented the embroidery on the lehenga. The tassels on the skirt and a belt around the waist were the highlight of the outfit.
Shruti teamed her lehenga with a heavy choker, big nath, hath phool, broad kadas, maangtikka, and a matha patti to make a breathtaking bride. Everybody came together to welcome her as a bride and made her bridal entry look larger than life.

Devang’s Priceless Reaction
Shruti could only say that her bridal lehenga by KALKI was beyond her expectations, and she fell in love with it instantly. She was all happy and smiling ear to ear. But Dewang had a different reaction. He wasn’t smiling when he saw his gorgeous bride in this lehenga. He actually cried when he saw her for the first time wearing this stunning bridal lehenga.
Love Note To KALKI
“I am glad I made this decision. All the staff were really helpful online as well in the shop. The WhatsApp support is really helpful. This will stay with me forever. Thank you to the Kalki team.”
Shruti Shah expressed her gratitude towards KALKI for understanding her dressing needs and doing a fantastic job with the outfit. As for the groom, everybody was happy that he didn’t turn up in his shorts for his real wedding. If there is anyone whom you can trust with closed eyes for a royal and classy bridal lehenga choli and other bridal outfits, it is KALKI. So, next time you’re scrolling through bridal couture online, remember that your journey from ‘Add to cart’ to ‘I do’ can be as thrilling as a rom-com, just like Shruti’s.
