You might not know this, but Wills India Fashion Week is the only fashion show in the country that showcases designs one season in advance. Which means that if you’re looking for the perfect honeymoon ensemble for that summer destination, or picking pieces for your work wardrobe post the honeymoon and wondering what to wear to dinner parties once temperatures rise again and those heavily embroidered velvets will no longer do – YOU’VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE!
WIFW just concluded their Spring-Summer 2015 shows and I, of course, scoured ALL the shows from all 5 days to bring you Summer Picks for your Trousseau. Continue reading “Trousseau Picks for your First Summer as a Newlywed: WIFW edition”
This is the final post in thedelhibells: Honeymoon series. Catch up with Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3 if you’ve missed them, before you move on to the post below.
My husband & I left for Singapore the next morning after breakfast. We lost a couple of hours to the time difference, so by the time we landed it was already dark. The 2 hour flight delay didn’t help either. We reached our hotel at 11.30 pm, tired and hungry. So I quickly ordered for dinner in the room, and while we unpacked for the 3rd & last time on this trip, I made it amply clear to my husband that I wouldn’t be able to (read: flat our refused to) get ready at 8 am the next morning for the city tour. It may also have had something to do with the fact that I’d visited Singapore on a family vacation many years ago, so I decided I’d rather sleep in than end the honeymoon on an exhausted note.
The next morning, Continue reading “thedelhibells: Singapore aka Honeymoon Part 4”
Read Part 1 & Part 2 to know how we began our honeymoon journey with Karva Chauth & a trip to Gold Coast.
We landed in Sydney at 8 AM and headed straight for the hotel. The check-in was uneventful, for which I was truly grateful. Yes, we’d requested an early check-in in advance! Lesson learnt! The hotel was nice Continue reading “thedelhibells: Sydney aka Honeymoon Part 3”
If you haven’t read Part 1 yet, you can catch up with it here before you move on to read Part 2.
Day 2 in Australia. My husband and I woke up early to get ready for a day of touring Gold Coast. We threw open the curtains, and what revealed itself was a very pretty view from our room! Continue reading “thedelhibells: Gold Coast aka Honeymoon Part 2”
First of all, thank you to everyone who participated in the very first giveaway ever on thedelhibride – all 24 of you! 🙂 That includes the boys!
Some of you shared such personal details about your love life, about making it through long-distance relationships and about honeymoons that were never taken when they should’ve been. I’m amazed at how much each and everyone of you has gone through, all in the name of love! Love really does make the world go ’round, hunh?
Nevertheless, there can be only one winner. I was looking for someone who really needed the helper, who would benefit most from getting BattleTrip to create a custom-made trip for them. Someone whose needs could not be fulfilled by a travel agent or a guide book. Because they were looking for something different. An off-beat kind of honeymoon.
As I narrowed down my list to 7 potential people who could win, I had a hard time choosing the final one. When I finally did, I realised she’s the fiancee of one of the remaining 6 on that list!
And her name is Continue reading “Winner of the $159 BattleTrip Giveaway Announced!”

I know, I know. You are expecting the Honeymoon post. I began writing this with the title “thedelhibells: Honeymoon” but the story of the first 48 hours of our honeymoon is so intimately tied up with Karva Chauth, that I can’t possibly talk about it without mentioning this first. You know me, I must give you ALL the details and so – here’s the story of my first Karva Chauth. Continue reading “thedelhibells: First Karva Chauth”
