Like Aishwarya who had sported a Kundan to go with her golden sareer on her D-Day, Shilpa too wore a Kundan with her red saree. Even her hair was done taking inspiration from Aishwarya Bachchan. Seems like Miss Worlds can any day inspire the BIG BROTHER winners to take a cue from them. He arrived at the ceremony in a two-horse chariot. The couple was joined by friends, family, and business colleagues for the service, which was a continuation of a sangeet ceremony held on Saturday night, November 21. ”Everything went very well. All parents want their children to get married happily and that goes the same for Shilpa’s parents as well. They are very happy,” the bride’s friend and business partner Kiran Bawa said after the wedding. “Raj and Shilpa both were very nervous before the marriage but now they are happy. We are going straight to Raj’s house in Mumbai.”

Not sharing her wedding details with the press, Shilpa has been quoted by Times of India as stating, “This is my dream wedding. We plan to shuttle between Mumbai and London after marriage. I shall strive to be as successful at home as I am outside. I want to excel as a homemaker.” Asked about her feeling of marrying Raj, who is a millionaire divorcee, she commented, “Let’s be positive. Raj is experienced and hopefully won’t make the same mistakes again. We are used to a certain lifestyle and it’s practical to choose a spouse who can at least match those luxuries, if not more. There’s nothing wrong in looking forward to a comfortable life. But money isn’t everything. Raj and I connect on a different level.”

After completing the rituals and the ceremonies they will leave for their week- long honeymoon at the Bahamas.
