Priyanka Chopra's Wedding Gown Had Over 2 Million Pearl Sequins

From Harper's BAZAAR

Priyanka Chopra's stunning wedding dresses have finally been revealed. The actress married singer Nick Jonas in a Western ceremony and traditional Hindu ceremony over the weekend at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur. Given the royal nature of the venue, Chopra's bridal looks were fit for a queen.

For the Christian ceremony, which took place on Saturday, Chopra wore Ralph Lauren, as previously reported. The sheer, long sleeve gown was a "hand-beaded and hand-embroidered dress featuring floral and scroll motifs, lace-effect tulle appliqués, scalloped sleeves and a high-neck collar," People reports. It took 1,826 hours to create.

The column dress beneath the embroidered outer layer consisted of 2,380,000 mother of pearl sequins. The bride accessorized with custom Jimmy Choo shoes.

Her veil was also a show-stopper. Stretching 75 feet long, the tulle number had to be held by multiple attendees as Priyanka walked down the aisle with her mother, Madhu Chopra.

Chopra's bridal gown wasn't just about the fanfare; it had a number of sentimental tributes, too. Eight different words or phrases with importance to the bride were hand-stitched onto the dress, including her husband's full name, Nicholas Jerry Jonas; their wedding date; and her parents' names, Madhu and Ashok. A piece of Priyanka's mother-in-law Denise Jonas' wedding dress was also sewn into the look, per People.

"When we went in for the sketch presentation, they created exactly what I envisioned for myself on my wedding day… and I said, ‘Yes’ to the dress," Priyanka told the magazine.

And let's not forget about the groom: Nick wore a Ralph Lauren Purple Label double-breasted black tuxedo and custom patent shoes. A small piece of Priyanka's dress was sewn into his tuxedo lapel with the words "My Jaan," Urdu for "My life," People reports.

Lauren also dressed the bridal party, which consisted of 12 bridesmaids, 12 groomsmen, four flower girls and one ring bearer. The bride and groom's parents also wore looks by the designer.

Priyanka is one of the rare brides to wear a custom look by Ralph Lauren on their weddings. The only other people the designer ever made a wedding dress for were his daughter, daughter-in-law, and niece. Chopra told People that Lauren had approached them about designing her wedding day look.

Lauren has an important part in Priyanka and Nick's story; he dressed them both for the 2017 Met Gala, just when they started seeing each other. Their joint cameo marked their first red carpet appearance together.

For the Hindu wedding ceremony the following day, Priyanka and Nick wore stunning looks by Indian designer Sabyasachi. See their full ensembles here.
