Both opted for traditional South Indian attire, from head to toe; whether it is in terms of accessorising or selecting dresses, they looked effortlessly elegant.
Rashmika opted for a deep red silk saree with a gold border, staying true to this quintessential Indian wedding colour, just as she did for the main wedding ceremony.
Another signature that followed through to this reception look was her heavy accessorising with jewellery. Gold jewellery was present not only in her main ceremony looks but also in her casual post-wedding appearances.
It is refreshing to see the complete embracing of Indian maximalism. Often, with the rise of minimalist ‘clean girl’ aesthetic, bridal and festive looks lean towards muted palettes, delicate jewellery and understated styling. While surely, they have their own elegant charm, it can sometimes dilute the actual grandeur traditionally associated with Indian weddings. Rashmika’s look reminds us how beautiful and powerful traditional maximalist excess can be when done right. The red looks unapologetically beautiful while the jewellery celebrates the heritage. She chose timeless style over trendy styles.
Same for Vijay as well, he too wore a traditional outfit, draped in white, looking suave. Keeping the styling minimalist, he accessorised with a silver bracelet and chain.
At the reception, the couple posed with the full family, all dressed in beautiful outfits, radiating joy and elegance.
