*NOTICE* The Wedding mini-site has been updated with new articles, including interviews with Amitabh Bachchan where we learn that Aishwarya signed her first autograph post-wedding as "Aishwarya Bachchan."

As well, now that the site traffic is back to normal, I will be doing a massive news (non-wedding related), media and photo gallery update this coming week.

*VOTING ALERT* You can now cast your vote for Aishwarya in the Time 100 Poll, which marks the most influential people of the year. If you will recall, Aishwarya was featured on this list in 2004. A link will also be placed on the sidebar area for easier access.

*HOT* I've added a few images from today's festivities as well as from the preparations that have been going on at Prateeksha over the past few days. Please note that these photos do not contain Aishwarya as none has surfaced of her as yet. But do take a look at bits of Aishwarya's doli, the lights decorating La Mer and Prateeksha, and Amitabh Bachchan with Aishwarya's family greeting guests at the Sangeet.
