For Mausalu ceremony

To kickstart her wedding festivities, the Ambani family hosted a luxurious Mausalu ceremony for Radhika Merchant. The pretty bride-to-be was all decked up in a gorgeous Manish Malhotra gharchola lehenga. Featuring a stunning hot pink with tangerine combination, the lehenga oozed the perfect Gujarati bahu vibes that Ms. Merchant was aiming for.

Adorned in a heavily embellished outfit featuring gota patti, zari, and mirror work, Radhika made a striking impression. Her ensemble was a testament to exquisite craftsmanship while being a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. 

However, it was her gorgeous hairstyle that grabbed our attention! The bride-to-be opted for a sleek and polished style that complemented the grandeur of the occasion. A high, tightly pulled-back ponytail was what she started off with, and she further embellished it with accessories that dripped richness.

To add a touch of traditional charm, her voluminous braid incorporated hair jewels borrowed from her mother’s personal collection. These jewels were the same ones that Radhika’s mother wore at her Mausalu ceremony. 

The golden accessories, adorned with intricate designs, were the focal point of the hairstyle, adding a regal touch to the ensemble. This carefully curated hairstyle perfectly complemented Radhika Merchant's overall appearance, making her the epitome of bridal beauty.
