'My journey to the altar was nothing short of a fairy tale, ignited by a single phone call to my dear friend @theanisha, which was filled with screams of excitement over the news of my upcoming wedding.

'Despite the absence of a set venue or date, I was unequivocally certain about one thing: My attire would be crafted by the incomparable Anamika Khanna,' Pulkit writes.

'Our adventure began in the opulent @anamikakhanna.in Mumbai store, amidst the men's section, but it was in the women’s section where we found our muse -- a stunning piece of embroidery that captured my heart and set the theme for my wedding ensemble,' he adds.

'Anamika wasn't the only magician behind my wedding wardrobe. For the Mehendi ceremony, @farazmanan was the clear choice,' he writes, referring to Pakistani Designer Faraz Manan.

'Despite his hectic schedule and the collection still being under development, Faraz crafted a breathtaking olive green outfit for me, allowing me to be the first to showcase his new collection. His dedication was a gift I couldn't have been more grateful for.'
