Gul Panag – Capt. Rishi Attari

Another crazy wedding was a model- turned- actor, Gul Panag who married her childhood love captain Rishi Attari, a commercial pilot at Hotel Bella Vista, near Chandigarh. It was a much talked about wedding of the tinsel town that had a very unusual vidai. For her love with bikes, Gul planned to come and leave her wedding venue on a bike. This desi bride looked fab in her fuschia lehenga by JJ Valaya and in chunky jewellery of gold and diamond. She even wore a chic aviator on her wedding day years before then the Katrina Kaif brought in the trend of kala chashma for brides to be worn on their weddings.

The crazy pictures of her wedding tell about the fun and frolic everyone had at the function as the bride and the groom clicked together sipping beer from the bottle with their hands crossed each other. The vidai was the star of the show where Attari took away the bride on a motorbike with sidecar. Ah all inspired by Munna bhai! The vidai ceremony was the convoy of bikers on the road where ladies and gents all drove home on the decorated bikes.

Sargun Mehta – Ravi Dubey

The couple who had met on the sets of 12/24 Karol Bagh, on Zee TV and had participated in Nach Baliye had a very splendid wedding where all rituals and function like haldi, sangeet and mehendi were performed straight from the bollywood style.
