Welcome back, Maharanis! Our next Best of 2015 pick is a southern charmer, fabulously photographed by the amazingly talented Banga Studios! Meet adorable Indian bride, Ritika, and her hubby-to-be, Vishal! These two lovebirds called on industry experts from KIS (cubed) Events to plan the Desi wedding of their dreams, and that's exactly what the spectacular team did, starting with the happy couple's mehndi night celebration! Check out the portrait of the bride, showing off her breathtaking bridal mehndi, created by Manisha's Mehendi Designs — adorbs, right? Our Indian bride is a ray of fabulously fashionable sunshine in her marigold lengha with strikingly vibrant floral details. Her hair and makeup, by Ojas Rajani, is picture perfect, and she made sure her guests looked flawless for her wedding event too by enlisting expert makeup artists from Bridal Elements to primp and pretty them — I mean, whatta treat! This mehndi night's fantastic design and decor work by Occasions by Shangri-la was sure to inspire the most marvelous mood for partygoers in attendance and surely inspired our own Maharani style!
