As her Sikh wedding ceremony (Anand Karaj) required her to be dressed modestly, and be able to move easily, we designed this beautiful gown for Bavan.

The key element of this design was the initials of Bavan's parents embroidered into her dupatta. This was her subtle way of keeping them both with her on her special day.

For the main gown we opted for a lightweight fabric which flowed beautifully, and had a mix of threadwork and hand beading throughout to keep it light, so when Bavan sat down and stood up during her ceremony, it would move with her and drape perfectly.

Instead of the usual thick, stiff can-can, we created a base layer of softer tulle net to give structure but also allow movement and a more natural silhouette.

Bavan absolutely loved her bridal outfit - and we even created outfits for her mother and close family too.
