The bridal look of Radhika Merchant was shared by stylist Rhea Kapoor as she geared up for her wedding with Anant Ambani on Friday and oh boy, she nailed it in a stunning lehenga designed by Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla.
Stylist Rhea Kapoor took to Instagram to share pictures of Radhika as a bride.
The 29-year-old opted for the heavily-embroidered ivory ensemble with red and gold accents and accentuated her look with elegant jewellery.
Her outfit is a traditional interpretation of ‘Panetar’, a Gujarati tradition of brides wearing red and white, Rhea detailed.

Bollywood power couples, Ranbir Kapoor-Alia Bhatt, Katrina Kaif-Vicky Kaushal, and Sidharth Malhotra-Kiara Advani, too lit up the grand wedding.
In a rain-soaked Mumbai, police closed roads leading to the area surrounding the Ambani-owned, 16,000-capacity Jio World Convention Center ahead of a red-carpet-style arrival event.
Attendees were dressed in their traditional best including custom sarees, lehengas and kurtas at an event that may set forthcoming trends in Indian wedding fashion.
The Amabnis kicked off the pre-wedding ceremonies by organising a mass wedding for underprivileged couples marking the union of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant.
