Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan

Since it was the wedding of two big shots of B-town, Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan, their invitation had to be special.

The first box contained the invite, while the second box had 24 pieces of mithai made from chocolate imported from Switzerland. An idol of lord Ganesha was placed in the third box.

Symbol ‘AA’ was also embossed on red in white gold on the cover of the card that was placed in the first box. Next page of the invite had lord Ganesha printed on it with few shlokas in golden letters. The third page had a Hindi poem penned by Amitabh Bachchan’s late father and poet, Harivansh Rai Bachchan. The rest of the pages contained the formal invitation to the wedding and details of the ceremonies. The card was printed in both Hindi and English. For the personal touch, parents of the bride and groom signed each card. The couple got married on April 20, 2007.
