With a number of leading fashion designers and stylists behind Sonam’s every single look for the function couple with her million-dollar smile, the actress joins the list of most beautiful brides of all time.

Sonam Kapoor in Anuradha Vakil’s Sharara Suit for Mehandi Night
First up is Sonam Kapoor’s look from the Mehandi night on May 6 where henna was applied at her hands and feet. The mehndi ceremony took place at Anil Kapoor's Bungalow at JVPD, Juhu, Mumbai. We saw Sonam dressed up in pastel pink and lilac sharara suit with a matching dupatta designed by Anuradha Vakil. It was a simple yet classic creation that was completely in sync with Sonam’s simple makeup and hairstyle. As for jewellery, the actress just wore huge statement earrings and was ready to enjoy her mehndi night. Yes, underneath the heavy embellished lehenga, the actress wore a pair of Nike flip-flops.
Sonam Kapoor in Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla for Mehandi-Sangeet Function
Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja’s mehandi and sangeet function was held on May 7 at Sunteck Signature Island in BKC, Mumbai. And for this function, designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla designed an ivory-gold lehenga choli keeping the 'shades of white' theme for the function in mind. The lehenga with a finely detailed piece of chikankari looked stunning when accessorised with the polki and golden jewellery consisting of jhumkas, maang tika and bracelets. Sonam wore her mother, Sunita Kapoor’s choker necklace. And, the gajra around her braided hair added to her elegant look.
Sonam Kapoor in Anuradha Vakil for Anand Karaj Ceremony
Admit it, we all could not stop staring at Sonam Kapoor when the first pictures of her bridal avatar emerged. Calling her beautiful is certainly an understatement; Sonam looked divine in the traditional shaadi ka lal joda. However, what was surprising to her followers was her choice of the designer. She opted to go with Anuradha Vakil over her regular designers and we must say the Gujarat-based designer did a fine job with Sonam’s main wedding dress.
The stunning red and gold lehenga was accessorised with an impressive collection of jewellery. Continuing with her love for choker necklace, Sonam also wore a guttapusalu necklace design. The matha patti (head band) Amrapali Jewels, earrings, kaliras, red and white choodas completed Sonam Kapoor’s look for the Anand Karaj ceremony, a traditional Sikh ceremony where the bride and groom tie the knot. Because I’m a bindi loving person when it comes to ethnic looks, I really wish Sonam had adorned bindi; however, that’s just my opinion.
Sonam Kapoor in Anamika Khanna for Cake Cutting Ceremony
Right after the marriage ceremony took place, Sonam changed into a more comfortable outfit. She wore a pastel pink and lilac lehenga by Anamika Khanna. With heavy statement earrings, red chooda, mangalsutra, sindoor and gajra in her hair tied up in a bun, Sonam was ready to cut the wedding cake with her husband, Anand Ahuja.
Sonam Kapoor in Anamika Khanna for Wedding Reception
Coming to the most glamorous function of her wedding ceremony, the reception party where Sonam wore a stylish Anamika Khanna lehenga with a modern twist. Sonam looked stunner in the metallic grey chevron printed lehenga with a full sleeved blouse and sheen dupatta. In the jewellery department, the actress chose a heavy four-layered diamond necklace. With bold red lips and sleek straight hairstyle, Sonam was ready for the best night of her life.
Sonam Kapoor in White Kaftan Dress at After-Party

The bride joined in the after-party by slipping into a more comfortable outfit, a shiny white kaftan and looked a vision in white.
