John Wilson said, “In a world where news of inhumanity bombards our sensibilities, where grasping for things goes so far beyond our needs, where time is squandered in busyness, it is a pleasure and a privilege to pause for a look at handiwork, to see beauty amidst utility, and to know that craft traditions begun so long ago serve us today.”

On 21st February, 2017, I felt like the most special and beautiful person on this planet. The reason? It was my wedding day. It’s been three years since that day, but I still feel (and know for a fact) that it was the day I looked my best. Of course, one of the reasons for feeling this way was that I’d found the person I’d be spending my life with. Though I strongly believe that ‘Beauty is skin deep’ and that one cannot be defined as ‘beautiful’ just by the way they look, I do believe that a bride needs to look her best on the day when she takes her wedding vows. And, we all know that just happiness and that inner glow isn’t enough to complete that bridal look, right? So how did I look so pretty that it made everyone’s heads turns and eyes glued to my face?
