A serene, ethereal scene depicting an Indian couple in traditional wedding attire, standing under a beautifully decorated mandap adorned with marigold flowers and intricate patterns. The bride is wearing a rich maroon and gold saree with delicate embroidery, adorned with traditional gold jewelry, while the groom is in an elegant cream sherwani with intricate motifs. They stand hand-in-hand, surrounded by softly glowing mandalas and lotus flowers, symbolizing unity and harmony. The backdrop is a dreamy blend of pastel colors—soft blues and pale pinks—enhanced by the warm glow of diyas (oil lamps). The image reflects the cultural richness and spiritual essence of arranged marriages, with a touch of modern digital aesthetics, creating a peaceful yet captivating atmosphere.
