    There are grooms who like to keep things super traditional—brocade, pearls, sarpech, rich, intricately embroidered sherwanis, the works! And there are grooms who like to keep it minimal, with muted colors, chikankari, minimal accessories. And then there are grooms who believe more is more—multiple brooches, over the top embroidery, mixing prints, they like to go all out on the drama! However, a lesser-known category of grooms is the quirky groom. This is the type of groom who likes all things unconventional and esoteric. This groom has a personal style that is far removed from anything traditional and is borderline strange! Dear groom-to-be, if this sounds anything like you, we have put together for you our picks for the quirkiest shoes you can get for your wedding festivities.

    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.

    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.

    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.
