#VogueWeddingShow2014

With a venue as aesthetic and grandiloquent as the Taj Palace Hotel, New Delhi, and a 'wedding' theme which is the heart and soul of Delhi, the event is set to rock. Its a must-attend event for every fashionista who's all set to walk down the aisle. The show has catered well to the wedding needs of every bride-to-be from lehengas for various occasions, jewelry, wedding cards, wedding decorations, planners, destinations to the return gifts. Its a one stop shop where you can personally interact with the renowned Indian designers, and all your wedding queries are handled well.

During the #Day1 of the event, I explored the following brands:

Forever Mark- All that glitters are Forever mark diamonds. The collections on display had the crown and oriental collections. The collections mostly had floral designs. A huge solitaire ring with a 1.4 carat diamond was priced at 5.28 lacs.

Swarovski- The sight of a crystal mandap set up by these people is so picturesque and elegant. The collection included wedding cushions with the name of the bride and groom embossed on it(how romantic!!) with swarovski crystals. The crystal decorative items oozed class and sophistication. A crystal favorite that Swarovski is, its indulgence into willy-nilly of weddings such as napkins, tea pot covers, etc. covered the entire gamut of a wedding ceremony. The crystal mandap decorations are priced at Rs.15 lacs, the cushion covers decently ranged from Rs.2,500-5,000. The wedding gifts ranged from Rs. 3,000-15,000. Aesthetic candles would glitter the event of your life at around Rs. 20,000. The various themes such as 'High Tea', 'Spring Garden', 'Midnight Magic' etc. have been set to make your choice of art more easy and convenient. So, flower mandaps are a passe, try the crystal mandap now, BIG UP!!

Puneet Gupta Invitations- If you aren't the kind who invite the friends and family to an event over facebook, this is a section for you. When the invitation to a particular event is as decorative and exquisite as the kinds on display at Puneet Gupta's, the anticipations for your weddings would surely reach the zenith. Whatever is the wedding theme that you have, there's a invitation card equivalent for that. If you're planning a destination wedding, the card would itself reflect the culture and history of the place. His collections at display included peacock themed cards, Jaipur-wedding cards that opened up to a majestic hand fan, a Shikara themed card if you're getting married in Kashmir, a trousseau trunk, etc. If you're the innovative and creative kind, these are the wedding cards you'd love!!!

The Flagship Store:Ferns and Petals- They give a floral touch to everything at your wedding. With a customized mannequin that wore a rose-flooded lehenga, a flowery kamarbandh, to floral sandals and flowery trousseau, their section will totally catch your attention with their innovative floral maneuver. They do decorations, they make customized floral jewelries for you, they will even get you a floral trousseau you can bloom in the glory of.
