Trisha + Veeral
Fiji IslandsA Beautiful Mind
May 2018
Proud to introduce this gem of a summer wedding from Fiji Islands, featuring the Bridelan couple Trisha Khatri and Veeral Patel. Trisha, the bride, is a vision of elegance, in all its purity and serenity. I’ve always championed elegance over the louder, and maybe more popular, concepts of Indian weddings. It was not too difficult to style Trisha, as she has a quiet dignity and soft gentle charm about her. She took me back to a utopian world and left me wondering if people like her even exist. Trisha made a conscious choice to be simple and classic on her D-day. There was only one Sabyasachi lehenga she had an eye for. While selecting real jewellery for the wedding, Trisha kept going back to this one pendant her father had gifted her as the only jewellery she would wear on her wedding.
Eventually, she settled for something grander but made everything around it minimalistic. She has a good taste for decor. Ditto with Veeral. He and I went around Mumbai, browsing every designer store and the looked at most fashionable of Indian groom ideas. Finally, he settled for the most understated silk textured embroidered sherwani by Sabyasachi. Trisha and Veeral’s wedding will be remarkable in years to come. As designers and designs will keep getting fancier and there will be newer innovations to trousseau their wedding photos will remind us of a purer time and how to be true to yourself is the best vision of elegance there can ever be.

Kind Words
“I reached out to Nisha from Bridelan because I was travelling from Sydney Australia for my wedding shopping. She helped me shop for my wedding dress, the fitting appointment and finding the right jewellery. Nisha understood exactly what I wanted after a mere phone call and 1 or 2 emails. She is a gifted stylist and really listens to her clients. Nisha made bridal shopping smooth and enjoyable and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”
