Harper’s Bazaar Bride is the ultimate guide for luxury weddings. Here is every modern bride’s ‘go-to’ magazine for the best in Indian and international couture, trousseau shopping, jewellery, wedding décor, gifting, beauty and much more.
If you look closely, there’s a smattering of superhero-related terminology interspersed between the cover lines. The inspiration comes from hours in front of a television screen watching films starring caped crusaders and lasso-wielding guardians, out to save mankind and, in turn, inspiring the sense of power and justice all of us are constantly seeking. The kind of power that comes with responsibility and a clear conscience. Lending this thought a strong platform, Priyanka Chopra graces our March cover.

It should be a forest which is deserted, isolated, quiet, and serene. Since everyone goes to beaches, it’s too common. A wild forest wedding could be very interesting. Q: What kind of décor would you like? For a forest, the décor should be very organic. A very light, white, shamiyana-like canopy, and just to break through the darkness of the woods, tiny lights hanging in beautiful sheer fabric lamps; very dreamy and ethereal. It all should be natural, made from the forest itself. There are so many wild, beautiful things, imagine if you created a chandelier-like installation with…
