We have learnt that the bride Priyanka Alva will be wearing a Tarun Tahiliani creation on the big day. Vivek arrived at the Chancery Pavilion on Tuesday at 11 a.m. and was seen having lunch of fried rice and Okra curry by the poolside at around 2.30 p.m. with friends and relatives. He was wearing a blue-grey T-shirt. Two ladies from the bride's family were seen taking care of the guests. The proud father, Suresh Oberoi, looking fresh in a light green kurta and cream-coloured pajama was checking on the arrangements made for the wedding guests at the desk set up at the hotel lobby. Vivek was seen leaving for the Alva residence at 6 p.m. Around 100 VVIPs are expected for the wedding. The family has asked for security for Oct 28-29.
