Kanakavalli Bride : Varsha

Varsha weds Viraj

Kanakavalli Bride Varsha and Viraj were introduced by their families in 2023, and spent a year getting to know each other. Varsha says she enjoyed every bit of that time, as they grew closer and discovered their compatibility, eventually deciding to get married. 

Varsha is a doctor and, as she was busy with her paediatrics residency, she barely had time to plan her big day. Fortunately, her parents, her fiancé and his parents did all the wedding planning, keeping in mind everything the bride wanted for her special day.

They made many trips to Goa to meet vendors and make sure every detail was taken care of. Varsha says she and Viraj will always be grateful to both their families for making their dream wedding come true.

The couple had a beautiful three-day celebration by the beach in Goa. It was an intimate gathering attended by their nearest and dearest, with a mehendi, haldi, sangeet, pellikoduku, pellikuthuru and a traditional wedding ceremony. For Varsha, the best part was walking to the mandapam with her entire family by her side. She says this was the most emotional moment of her life.

The wedding took place on a cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea. The mandapam was decorated in shades of red, white and gold, featuring fresh floral arrangements, with the sky and the ocean in the background.

Given her tight schedule as a doctor, Varsha decided to do all her shopping in Hyderabad, her home town. She needed two saris for the wedding and picked the first one – a gorgeous red kanjivaram – at Kanakavalli’s Hyderabad store. She thought she would buy the second sari from somewhere else but, after visiting nearly every other sari store in the city, came back to Kanakavalli. She was delighted to find both her wedding saris at our store.

A big thank you to Varsha for being a beautiful Kanakavalli Bride and sharing the story of her wedding with us. We wish her and Viraj a lifetime of love and laughter.
