Shriya Saran is a very familiar name in the film industry down South and has her feet firmly planted across the Southern states. Rumours of a wedding just around the corner had been doing the rounds for some time now, but the gorgeous actress always said that she would let the world know when wedding bells were due to ring for her.
Well, it’s finally happened! The pretty actress and her Russian boyfriend Andrei Koscheev officially said ‘I Do’ in Udaipur on March 19 and got to enjoy a dream wedding. For starters, there was a traditional sangeet ceremony, engagement ceremony and a Holi party followed by an auspicious wedding ceremony that was attended by close family and friends. Here’s what we know about all the celebrations that took place:

In the evening, the pre wedding ceremony commenced with the arrival of the baraat where beau Andrei looks dashing in a deep blue bandhgala. Shriya too looks lovely in a red lehenga complete with traditional Indian jewellery and the ceremony was performed in accordance with Hindu rites. This was of course followed by a wedding reception which saw only two Bollywood celebrities in attendance.
Love truly rules and what touched our hearts was Andrei reciting a Hindi poem to the love of his life. Here’s wishing the couple an amazing life ahead!
