Let's not forget Rajasthan is a popular playground for Bollywood stars when they decide to take the marital plunge. Earlier, actors including Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal chose to marry in Rajasthan surrounded by their family and friends. Like Kiara and Sidharth, these two also chose to marry in private as paparazzi camped outside to get crumbs of nuptial images.

Kiara, who made a radiant bride, paired her pastel-shade lehenga designed by Kiara's bestie Manish Malhotra with a statement emerald and diamond necklace along with a massive matching studs. The two were also spotted wearing jasmine-woven garlands. Their series of feel-good images resembled a Bollywood musical where two sweethearts revel in each other's company.

Another couple who chose Rajasthan like Kiara Advani and to tie the knot was Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas. The two pulled all stops to make their wedding a grand and lavish affair. It's likely that both Sidharth and Kiara will release images after their wedding ceremony at the same time. In the past, Bollywood stars like Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, and Deepika Padukone have not relied on paparazzi or traditional press to release wedding images. Most of them just take to their social media handles to put out divine-looking pictures from their wedding. When you do that, you are in full control and the portraits are near perfection.

While we can't keep calm after the official images dropped hours after the ceremony, it is evident that both Kiara and Sidharth have pulled all stops to make their wedding, a weekend to remember. Kiara and Sidharth are one Bollywood's most beloved couples and are doing well on their career fronts. If Kiara has hits like 'Kabir Singh' and 'Lust Stories' under her belt, Sidharth - a self-made actor - boasts hits like 'Shershaah'. What we love about this couple is that they are a portrait of a modern day couple who love to travel and globe-trot around the world. In the picture above, you see the bride and groom hanging out with their BFFs Manish Malhotra and Rani Mukherji.
