    He actually cried when he saw me for the first time in my bridal Lehenga – #RealBride Sheeba

    Bride & groom’s names: Sheeba Fernandez and Alan Turner
    Location of the wedding: Dallas
    1. What was your vision for your wedding?
    My vision was to capture my culture and its beauty in an elegant way!
    2. What was the most magical or memorable part of your day?
    My husband is a Caucasian American and he had no clue I was going to wear a bridal Lehenga. He actually cried when he saw me the first time in the Lehenga. He said it took his breath away, and that I looked regal and elegant in my ethnic outfit. He was over the moon that I wore a bridal Lehenga and not a gown!
    3. Why did you choose your wedding/reception dress from Silk Threads?
    As I was looking online for wedding Lehengas, the only ones that caught my attention were the at Silk Threads – but I didn’t  want to spend a whole lot on it.
    Fortunately, a friend of mine knew someone who knows Ruby well.
    Thanks to her for encouraging me to set up an appointment with Ruby, because she assured me that Ruby would take care of me and design my dream lehenga, and still work within my budget.
    Though I paid a little more than I had planned to, it was well worth it because Ruby gave me much more than what I had expected!
    She did an outstanding job on helping me find the perfect lehenga that made me look like an extraordinary bride and that was my goal to begin with!
    I only had two months to plan my wedding. Ruby and Madhu made the experience so relaxing and stress-free by assisting me with every detail from my Lehenga, to the perfect fit, to picking out the jewelry…
    Not everyone gets a second shot at life. I was fortunate I did, and this time I got much more than what I had anticipated, thanks to my sweet Ruby and Madhu!
    I’ve fallen in love with Silk Threads but more so because of the team that works there and the quality of what they offer is simply priceless!
    They are genuine people that care and take pride and joy in what they do and the results on the most important day of your life simply shows!
    Thank you Ruby and Madhu for making all my dreams of being a beautiful Indian bride come true!
    Thank you Sheeba – we loved working with you, and you looked gorgeous!

    1. What was your vision for your wedding? We wanted something simple and elegant reflecting both of our cultures in the food and décor and even hashtags (#curryandqueso, #sarisandsombreros)
    2. What was the most magical or memorable part of your day?  Walking in with my parents – seeing my groom and all the love in the room and feeling like royalty in my exquisite outfit
    3. Why did you choose your wedding/reception dress from Silk Threads?  I have known Ruby since college at the University of Texas and have always thought she was an amazing designer-  and when we got engaged I knew I wanted to wear something amazing that was one of  a kind– so calling Silk Threads was a no-brainer…
    4. Anything else you would like to add?

    🙂 Not only did I get an absolutely amazing outfit- but my sister and future sister in law also wanted outfits  too- so we got to spend a whole day with Ruby designing each outfit- it was such a fun experience! Ruby took the time with each of us making sure every detail was perfect and each outfit was unique and  a few months later, it was amazing to see how the visions came to life when we all had our first fittings after the dresses came in from India. It meant a lot to me that every piece of material was hand-picked and stitched all in India. Our outfits were truly breathtaking- everyone loved them! I also had one made in my colors for my 15 month old niece who was the flower girl and there are no words for how beautiful and adorable that tiny outfit was as well!!

    Thank you Sindhu – you and your family looked adorable!IMG_1498 - Copy
