Themed Nights, Dress Codes, Travel Plans: A Peek into Guest Guide for Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant Pre-Wedding Festivities

A nine-page event guide and wardrobe planner sent to guests offers an overview of what to expect at the three-day pre-wedding bash for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant to be organised in Gujarat’s Jamnagar city from March 1 to 3.

All guests will travel to Jamnagar on chartered flights from Mumbai or Delhi between 8am and 1pm on March 1.

“In order to accommodate everyone’s luggage, we ask you to pack consciously, with one item of hand luggage and one piece of hold luggage per person, or three total suitcases per couple,” the guide says. “If you bring more luggage, we cannot guarantee it will arrive on the same flight as you, but we will do our best to bring it in at the earliest.”

All three nights of celebrations will be themed. Day 1 is called An Evening in Everland, with the dress code listed as “elegant cocktail”.

Day 2 will host A Walk on the Wildside with “jungle fever” the suggested dress code. It is set to be held outdoors in the Ambanis’ animal rescue centre in Jamnagar, and guests are advised to wear comfortable shoes and clothing for this event.

Invitees will then swap their safari-themed outfits for more elegant ones for Mela Rouge. The dress code for this is “dazzling desi romance”, suggesting glamorous traditional South Asian attires for all.

The final day will also comprise two events. The first one, Tusker Trails, suggests “casual chic” dressing, as guests are expected to further explore the green ambience of Jamnagar.

The final party, Hashtakshar, calls for an elegant evening with heritage Indianwear.

All guests will also have access to a range of laundry services including express steaming of clothes, the guide says.

Anyone with accessibility, medical, or dietary requirements can reach out to the hospitality team over a given phone number.

Hairstylists, sari drapers, and make-up services will also be available on-site.

But, despite the detailed wardrobe suggestions, guests are free to wear whatever they are comfortable in, “as we would like you to enjoy each moment to the fullest and make beautiful memories that last a lifetime”, the guide concludes.
