Bhumi Pednekar’s Bridal Fashion Shoot Is The Destination Wedding Moodboard You Need

Last Updated:August 03, 2025, 13:19 IST

Bhumi Pednekar’s bridal fashion spread for a magazine blends couture, culture, and contemporary grace in a destination wedding dream set in Udaipur.

‘When I do get married, it will be as dreamy as this shoot.,’ with this wistful caption, Bhumi Pednekar sums up the spirit of her breathtaking editorial for Condé Nast Traveller India’s #DestinationWeddingGuide2025. Set against the royal canvas of Udaipur’s architectural grandeur, the shoot feels like an ode to the bride of today, rooted in heritage, yet unafraid to rewrite tradition. Across four distinct looks, Bhumi transforms into a modern maharani on a soulfully stylish escape. Each ensemble is a moodboard of texture, silhouette, and story stitched together with grace and intention.

Look 1: Blossoming Romance

Shot against a pristine white domed pavilion, Bhumi wears a lehenga and blouse by Anita Dongre in soft blush pink, hand-embroidered with delicate florals that echo the romance of Rajasthan’s royal gardens. The three-quarter blouse with a plunging neckline adds a contemporary edge, while the sweeping silhouette remains timeless. Her hair is styled in a low bun adorned with roses, and her makeup stays minimal, muted lips, softly smoked eyes, and sculpted cheeks. Adding a dose of grandeur is the Emerald Nizam necklace by Popley Eternal & Suuraj Popley, a nod to regal heirlooms that once adorned Indian royalty.

Look 2: Crimson Power

In a striking glass-domed setting, Bhumi stuns in a corset blouse and structured skirt by Tarun Tahiliani, richly beaded in deep red. The ensemble sculpts her form like armour, dramatic yet graceful. Her hair flows in soft waves, and the glowing skin-meets-bold-eye makeup makes for a powerful beauty look. She pairs the look with a two-row Polki necklace by Popley Eternal & Suuraj Popley, the uncut diamonds catching light with every movement. This look is pure bridal drama with modern sensuality.

Look 3: Vintage Princess

Bhumi channels vintage glamour in a Manish Malhotra blush velvet ensemble, a strapless embellished corset paired with a voluminous skirt. Captured indoors against traditional Indian artwork, she evokes quiet regality. Her makeup stays tonal with rose hues and a high-shine finish, while cascading waves soften the structured bodice. No necklace needed here—the look relies on a statement diamond choker and layered necklace that offer a shimmer of extravagance against the softness of the setting.

Look 4: Golden Heritage

A close-up shot brings focus to Bhumi’s luminous face, framed by soft tendrils and a gentle bindi. She’s dressed in a mirror-worked lehenga set by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla, drenched in warm tones of gold, pink, and orange. The artisanal craftsmanship is amplified by traditional Kaali-ghati earrings in 22k gold by Popley Eternal & Suuraj Popley, a heritage touch that roots the look firmly in Indian tradition while elevating it to bridal couture.

Together, these four looks create a travel couture diary, Bhumi as muse, Udaipur as canvas, and Indian craftsmanship as the eternal protagonist.
