As you can see the wedding invitation card is plain and simple, with a white background. It has been sent out to 'erstwhile' royals in India, for the 'dawaat-e-waalima' party, which is a reception, held after a wedding.

Kareena Kapoor - Saif Ali Khan Marriage

According to Sharmila Tagore, mother of the groom, the marriage functions will be held on October 16, 2012. The wedding venue is expected to be the Pataudi ancestral home, and the marriage ceremony will only be attended by family members and close friends of Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan. According to sources, the wedding is being kept a quiet low-key affair, because Saif Ali Khan’s father, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, passed away quite recently.

For her wedding, Kareeena Kapoor is expected to don a Rs. 40 lakh necklace, designed by traditional wedding jewellery designers, Kruti Jewellers. In fact, many wedding jewellery pieces for Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan’s wedding are expected to be designed by these Rajkot-based jewellers.

According to Pradeep Kansara, owner of Kruti jewellers, Kareena Kapoor’s wedding necklace would be crafted from about 400 grams of gold, and would extend to her waist in an elaborate royal-themed design. It would be embellished with diamonds and other precious stones, and would take more than two months to craft.

The jewellery designer emphasised that such jewellery sets were only made for royal weddings. As Kareena Kapoor is marrying a ‘titular’ nawab, she would obviously want to wear a royal wedding necklace, and look like a 'maharani' at her royal wedding.


Kareena Kapoor - Saif Ali Khan Reception

A small reception will follow the marriage of Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan, which will most probably be held at a wedding venue in or near Mumbai. This wedding reception is expected to be attended by Saif and Kareena’s Bollywood friends, as well as bigwigs from the political and financial sectors.


Kareena Kapoor - Saif Ali Khan Honeymoon

No honeymoon is expected immediately after the marriage of Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan, as Kareena has lots of films pending, and has assured her directors that she would not be taking any leaves. This includes Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Heroine’, and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Ram Leela’.

Kareena Kapoor would continue working as an actress after her marriage, just like her future mother-in-law Sharmila Tagore. She is expected to do about two films a year.
