A custom-made Ralph Lauren gown complete with a 75-foot-long veil, Priyanka Chopra's wedding with Nick Jonas was a fairytale affair that could rival many a royal nuptials.

Just to give perspective, Princess Diana's wedding gown had a 25-foot-long train, which is said to be longest for a royal wedding, while Priyanka's friend former actor Meghan Markle, who married Diana's younger son, Prince Harry, had a 16-foot-long train.

Priyanka and Nick exchanged wedding vows on December 1 at Jodhpur's majestic Umaid Bhawan Palace in a Catholic ceremony officiated by the groom's father Kevin Jonas Sr. It was followed by an equally grand wedding as per Hindu traditions on December 2.

The couple shared a number of pictures from their Mehndi and Sangeet festivities but the veil on the final twin ceremonies was lifted by People magazine on Tuesday. The US-based publication had the exclusive access to the wedding ceremony.

"Every girl dreams of being a princess on her wedding day. But I never had a plan about what I wanted it to be," Priyanka, 36, told the magazine.

Nick, 26, was the one to suggest that the couple had both Christian and Hindu weddings to honour their faiths, she said.

"It melted my heart. Being able to have two big weddings, in India, with our closest family and friends was unbelievably special," she added.

After the magazine dropped the pictures, the couple shared the photographs with mushy messages for each other.

Tagging Nick, Priyanka wrote: "And forever starts now..."
While Nick shared the picture from the Hindu wedding and captioned it as: "Happiest day of my life."
