Performing Aarthi is so crucial that no Indian Hindu wedding takes place without performing Aarthi. Traditional Weddings give a lot of importance and involvement for the Aarthi ceremony and even the Aarthi plates are selected after a lot of shortlisting.
The family of the bride welcomes the groom and his family by performing Aarthi at the entrance of the wedding venue. Aarthi is a sacred Hindu ritual and is performed during a wedding mainly to remove the negative vibes sent by other people on seeing the bride.
The process of Aarthi is usually a form of worship where a small fire is made from camphor and placed on a plate which also has butter. It is a traditional Hindu ceremony and more of a sacred ritual. It is offered in many temples as a gesture of respect and reverence to deities. Aarthi is also performed before a divine element objects which have a hint of divinity in it.
It is also waved before worshippers and devotees to symbolize that man also has a small part of divine element within him.
Sai Kalyaan provides your weddings with Aarthi plates so that you do not need to worry about selecting the right Aarthi plates.
For the above best Aarthi plates, avail the services of Sai Kalyaan Creations and the best part is they do international shipping too for all their beloved customers and they have an absolute gem of a service.

The Bidai ceremony is by far the most emotional moment in most Indian weddings. Some brides smile through it with teary eyes while others burst out into tears. But this precious moment embarks the bride’s journey into her new life, on her own, and that’s why it becomes even more important. No matter how good the bride looks, this is one moment when you won’t be able to see her beyond her tears.

We attended a family friend’s wedding last week. The groom made a grand entry on an elephant, just like the Maharajahs. We want everything larger than life in our weddings.The scene a few years back was different.There was no concept of a “Bridal Entry” other than your sisters getting you out from your room till your groom. According our budget, we try to opt for unique ideas and cherish them forever..Why not a statement entry !
For making a grand entry, traditional Palki comes with a new avatar. Not only celebrity weddings but fashion shows also reflect this trend where celebrity show stoppers make an entry on the ramp in a Palki. The palki is said to be the bride’s throne as she is the only one who is allowed to sit in there.
Palaki surely makes the journey of a bride from her maternal family to her matrimonial home – a memorable experience!” Palaki can be recreated , unlike the olden days.Usage of diamonds, expensive flowers, antique minute decorative items, ‘motis’, and hand paintings has increased with development of ideas and creativity.
Ad: Kumari Collections
The chaddar for the entry can be used for the groom as well as the bride. We happen to see variations now a days which includes lights and floral chaddar.
The groom taking the reins and parading his lady love on a bike makes for a super cute picture! And what’s even better, they both have a good laugh and others around them are super amused and all this drama makes for great pictures!What say?
So , why not make your wedding entry grand and memorable.Efficient Output & Cost Effective. They believe in “Enriching Events to Perfection”.

There was an amazing generation of kids who grew up before all this globalisation came into picture and their life was just as fun as Malgudi Days. And their play time was at a different level altogether. No Candy crush, No Facebook games, but if you ask us of what they spent their time with, they had some amazing games with dolls. Yes, they had some pretty dolls way before we had our Barbie dolls. As a matter of fact, these dolls were also used in Sankranthi and Navarathri for Bommala koluvu.
And that’s the story of probably how your Grand Mom and Mom developed an interest for those Golu and Wooden dolls. And now it’s high time that you too fall in love in with them for all their cuteness.
oonjal ceremony during weddingAd: Silk thread bangles
When we thought that these dolls were almost extinct, we saw a couple of posts sometime ago in Brides essentials by Sai Kalyaan Creations on these Golu dolls and then we asked them about the various dolls they make and we were grinning with all our teeth and our eyes lit up with all the spark for what they showed us in return.
Bride in Pelli Butta
Here at Bridesessentials today we would want to showcase some amazing wedding themed dolls which undoubtedly fills up the air with the wedding mood and probably you can even feel and the Nadhaswaram in the background when you look at these dolls set, just as we experienced.
Kashi YatraAd: Event Management
Such cute dolls need no actual reason to be purchased. But if you ask us for a reason, yes there are plenty. These would make some amazing gifts for Nalugu/ Bridal shower. You can even present them as Mehendi Favours.
Arundhathi Nakshatram
And just imagine how beautiful properties they make during small ceremonies at home and with a strong nod we can say that they would last generations and can be featured at your Bommala koluvu for all the coming generations.

“Playing Dress up starts at the age of five and never really stops.” My Bestie sent across this post which instantly put a wide smile across my face, and also did it lit up my grey winter mornings.
How relatable was that!! that our thirst for pretty dresses never really stop through out our life and on that note let me also remind you that having a designer who exactly knows your heart is no less than a boon. And today let me present you a piece of what the boon looks like.

Apparently Parrot green and Rani pink has become a hot combination this wedding season and why would Mrinal’s ever miss that. This mirror themed crop top and the Flowy skirt is a stunning beauty and one should definitely grab it before it’s too late.

They say divinity and Indian Brides are synonymous to each other. Of course it is undoubtedly true and its hard to find someone who would not second that.
Last year, we did witness some scintillating weddings, but most importantly we have seen some amazing brides who nailed their traditional look. Having said that, we have now bought you the best Bridal portraits of the year 2016. Without any further delay, scroll down to know more.
A heavy Maang tika, Kalyana tilakam, Heirloom jewellery and a bright Kanchi saree. Undoubtedly, this bride is the epitome in describing south Indian culture and beautifully shot by Impressions.
beautiful bride in heritage jewellery
Few brides exude confidence and royalty with every cell of their body and this bride is one of the very few in that category. Chunky jewellery and a pastel Kanchivaram additionally enhanced her grace a multiple folds and stunningly captured by Harikrishnan photography.
Royal bride in pastels
There is something very special about this color. Probably because of the reason that the name itself has royalty in it, I am talking about the elegant bride in this amazing ‘Rani’ Pink saree and all thanks to the photographer from focuzstudios.com
Bride in pink
Kemp Jewellery, Red bindi and those incredibly sharp eyes. What more do we have to say about this bride, other than admiring her like a morning sunshine. Another beautiful capture from Focuzstudios.com
The Sunshine Bride
Neeta shankar never ceases to amaze us with her lens. Probably because being a woman, she exactly know what the bride would ever want. This bride with her sweet smile and impeccable bridal looks is one of the most favourite for Team BE.
A sweet smile for Beautiful Bride
Trendy Maang tika, a bold pink lip color and her sweet smile, this bride, has a great sense of experimenting and we are sure that she executed her look ‘oh-so-perfectly’. Another capture by our talented Neeta Shankar.
The Diva Bride
Traditional Telugu brides are a little special of all, why? Because it is not just one outfit that has to look perfect on them, its two. While the cream-gold saree is what worn the mangalasutradharana, here is the bride in all her glory.
A beautiful Telugu Bride
Yellow is synonymous to Prosperity and Auspiciousness in India and this pretty Bride in the combination of Off white and Yellow looks equally traditional with her subtle makeup and expressive eyes. Shot by Ashok Arsh Photography.
The Yellow Bride
This Pretty bride without a second thought is beauty personified. Doesn’t she reminds of the shy and coy lady from one of those Ravi Varma Paintings? Hell Yea!! A big shout out to the photography team from AshokArsh who bought out this stunning portrait.
Enter a caption
As we already discussed, this Telugu doll is all decked up for her big moment and very evidently, is all flowy with her emotion and that definitely is adding a lot of life to the portrait.
The Ivory Bride
Now this picture completely comes first in the most unique bridal Portrait. Look at the bride, how engrossed she is!! Or probably she must checking out if anyone out there have posted about their wedding in a newspaper!!
The Modern Bride
Where is the bride looking at? Let’s do some guessing, umm.. seems like she is waiting for her prince Charming. What do you think? But, if we keep aside all this, this portrait is one of the best bespoke portraits in the last wedding season.
The subtle coral bride
Let us be honest with you, the first moment we had a look at this beauty, all we could visualise were those amazing oil painting in the court of the Mysore palace. Probably it’s the instinct, but this amazing bride nailed the look to perfection. Her Brocade blouse unlike the conventional heavy bridal blouses is a show stealer. Kudos to Deepak Vijay Photography.
The Royal Bride
This Bride is a perfect example of what cuteness overloaded exactly means. Diamond Jewellery, Contrast blouse and an awesome peacock detailing. Over all Super Machi!! Another click by Deepak Vijay Phtography.
The contemporary Bride
When we speak about how important Eye Makeup is, we are not exaggerating!! And the proof? Look at how those lush lashes are adding to the Bridal Look and we are simply in love with this picture. All credits to Deepak Vijay Photography.
Bride in the making
Next time someone asks you what’s so special about Traditional Jewellery, show them this picture. Guttapusalu, Mamidi Haram and Kemp Jhumkas , this Bride is an epitome of a traditional Royal Bride.
We could stop humming ‘Chilaka mukku choodu mukkera meedha erupu choodu’ when we saw this beautiful portrait of a South Indian Bride captured by SiddhardthPhotography.in . We guess that you would second us for this bride.
The ‘Naath’ Bride
If someones asks us of what does a Niravana Moment mean, we would definitely show up this picture to prove it. The serene expression of the Bride is what made us fell in love with this picture. Shot by Aashish Photography.
The Nirvana Bride
Doesn’t this image remind you of all those Nalli or Pothy’s high end Commercials. Of course yes!!The Bride is looking every bit regal and we especially loved the way the greens have been used to capture the potrait. Again a magic by Aashish Photography.
The Regal Bride
For some unknown reason, this bride looks straight out of a ‘Baapu’ Painting. Large eyes with loads of kohl, a coin sized bindi and a unique combination for a Bridal Look. All put together she is just ‘Picture Perfect’. All thanks to The Knotz for this amazing picture.
The ‘Baapu Bomma’ Bride
Hard to not notice the sense of detailing the bride has. The beautiful cut work blouse, amazing color combination which she managed to incorporate into her floral veni’s too. Over all we give a thumps up to the fashionista bride. Shot by Zerogravity studios
Who denies when a bride wears a red and green saree? Two awesome Royal colors make one fantabulous outcome and here is the example.
Traditional Bride in Red and Green
Beautiful Bride Vaishnavi looks no less than a celestial goddess in all her glory. Those perfect kohl eyes and her tranquil definitely mesmerises everyone and all thanks to Ranganath Photography for their magic.
The beautiful Ivory Bride
We truly bet that this Bride is a true competitor to all the beautiful parrots out there. Amazingly themed makeup really made her stand out uniquely and we are lost in the vibrancy of this picture.
Bride in Parrot shades
Longing for more? Stay tuned for more pictures of these amazing south Indian Brides. We would get back soon
