    You’ve said yes to your life partner, and maybe even to the dress, but what about the gemstone that’s calling your name? Whether it’s nestled in your engagement ring, part of your bridal jewellery, or simply one that you’ve favoured all your life, your chosen gemstone might be saying more about your bridal personality than you think.

    So if you find yourself unusually drawn to a particular gemstone, then it might be indicative of something deeper. Here’s what your favourite gemstone says about what kind of bride you’ll be…

    What Kind Of Bride Are You, Based On Your Favourite Gemstone

    Diamond: The no-nonsense bride


    Timeless, elegant, and all about a wedding that never goes out of style. You love clean lines, classic silhouettes, and a moment that feels both grand and intimate. You never settle for anything less than perfect, and your resilience under pressure is legendary.

    Emerald: The emotional bride


    If you find yourself drawn to this beautiful green gemstone, then you tend to value meaning over mechanics. Your wedding is more about the people you’re surrounding yourself with than aesthetics (though you somehow nail both). You cherish emotional connections, and your wedding reflects it.

    Ruby: The power bride


    Bold, glamorous, and born to make an entrance. You don’t just want a wedding, you want a spectacle. Expect a wardrobe that’s full of drama, a multi-day wedding festivity itinerary that packs a punch, and a sangeet performance worthy of its own trailer.

    Sapphire: The regal bride


    Graceful, composed, and effortlessly refined. You’re an old soul with a taste for the finer things in life, and your wedding reflects that. You don’t need to be loud to shine; you simply command the room.

    Amethyst: The boho bride


    Creative, intuitive, and vibing with all things unconventional, people drawn to this beautiful purple stone are lovers of serenity. Your bridal aesthetic? Soft, layered, meaningful—and just a little bit magic.

    Topaz: The ‘ray-of-sunshine’ bride


    Topaz is said to represent optimism and abundance. People drawn to the gemstone are said to be warm, upbeat, and the glue that holds every family WhatsApp group together. You want your wedding to feel like a joyous hug: colourful decor, heartfelt speeches, and a baraat that lasts just a little too long.

    Aquamarine: The zen bride


    You’re cool under pressure, chill even when the caterer forgets that your grandmother hates the smell of fish, and an all-around calming presence to be around. You’d go for a breezy beach wedding or a quiet affair at a farm, and your look leans into fresh, modern silhouettes. You don’t follow trends, you transcend them.

    Opal: The wildcard bride


    Artistic, evolving, and impossible to pigeonhole, the bride who loves opal is as unpredictable as they come. You might give the older members of your family a shock when you opt for a black wedding outfit or choose to wear your mother’s kundan necklace as a headpiece instead. Your wedding is more of an experience than an event, complete with interactive art and a surprise performance (probably your own).

    Pearl: The old soul bride


    You don’t have to be an expert in gemstones to know that pearls signify timeless elegance. If you love pearls, you’ll likely go for a small and intimate ceremony, wear your mother’s (or grandmother’s) jewellery, and write everyone a personal note. You believe in tradition, but you know exactly how to make it feel fresh.

    Turquoise: The wanderlust bride


    Whether it's a destination wedding in the hills or mandap decor inspired by a Rajasthani folk tale, your celebration is a beautiful blend of stories, cultures, and colour. You’re someone who is free-spirited, eclectic, and always up for a twist.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    - Avarna Jain,
    Chairperson RPSG Lifestyle Media

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    - Avarna Jain,
    Chairperson RPSG Lifestyle Media

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.

    - Avarna Jain,

    Create
    This section is a building block, a step to a better life. A place where we have all the answers. Or at least the beginning of a great conversation.

    - Avarna Jain,

    Chairperson RPSG Lifestyle Media

    This first issue has a lot more, including a carefully edited address book of everything you need to make your wedding perfectly 'gramworthy! But it doesn't stop there. Each issue will be different because each one of you is unique.
