The custom-made red lehenga (which consists of a long skirt, cropped top, and veil) was developed by an Indian designer named Sabyasachi, according to People . With the help of embroiderers from Calcutta, India, the attire captured all the details that Chopra wanted. This included the groom's name and those of Chopra's parents — her late father, Ashok, and her mother, Madhu — sewn into the skirt's waistband in Hindi.

According to Sabyaschi's Instagram post of the bridal look, it also included hand-cut organza flowers, French silk knots, and crystals.

Jonas was dressed in a gold, hand-quilted sherwani made out of silk with an embroidered chikan dupatta and a chanderi tissue safa. The look was completed with a diamond necklace from the Sabyasachi's heritage jewelry collection and a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes.

Prior to the Hindu ceremony, Chopra and Jonas exchanged vows during a Christian service.

The actress wore a high-neck, long-sleeved lace white dress with floral and scroll motifs, a 75-foot-long tulle veil, and a pair of embellished Jimmy Choos.

A representative for Ralph Lauren also told INSIDER that the embroidery on the custom-made dress took 1,826 hours to complete by hand, and included pearl paillettes, crystal seed beads, and Swarovski crystals.
