This piece keeps both wedding garlands whole: the bride's varmala and the groom's, preserved complete, with no petals taken off and no flowers broken, in one very large frame with the groom's kantha, the bride's kaleera, your couple photo, names and wedding date. You can compare similar designs in our varmala photo frames collection. Every format we make is on our varmala preservation page.
The bride's kaleera and groom's kantha, side by side
The two complete garlands are laid out whole, so the flowers frame everything else, with the kantha and kaleera placed as a pair and your couple photo at the heart of it. Because nothing is cut apart, the frame is built large; your designer confirms the final size and layout with you on the call and shows each stage on video.
Choosing a wall for a full varmala frame
A frame holding two whole garlands has real presence, so it suits a main wall.
-
Living room: where both families will see it.
-
Master bedroom: above the bed or a dresser.
Many families follow the common practice of keeping couple pieces in the south-west; your adviser can confirm.
For couples who want both sides of the wedding kept
The varmala exchange is the moment the two of you were bound together, and this frame keeps that moment as it happened: both garlands intact, side by side. Parents and siblings often choose it as a joint wedding gift, and couples for a first anniversary.

How your full varmala kantha frame is made
-
Dry the flowers. Our team explains how; with fresh flowers, message us straight after the function.
-
Send them. We can arrange pick-up and drop for ₹300–500, depending on location, or you send the dried flowers by courier.
-
Approve on video. You see every step and approve the design stage by stage.
-
Delivery in up to about 25 days from the day your flowers reach the studio, as this is a full varmala piece.
Our Jaipur studio has made handmade resin pieces since 2012. Each full varmala kantha frame is handmade, so it can vary a little from the sample, but it follows what you approve.
Before dispatch. Made to order, so an advance confirms your order; cash on delivery isn't available. The balance, if any, is cleared before the piece leaves us. Shipping in India is free; our return and refund policy covers early changes.
Full varmala kantha frame: questions buyers ask
Do the colours change over time?
Only slightly, and only during drying. After the dried flowers are poured in resin, their colour stays the same.
My flowers are already dry, or we are not in Jaipur. What now?
Dry flowers are exactly what we need, since only dried flowers can be preserved; fresh ones are dried first, and we explain how once your order is confirmed. Within Jaipur, we collect them straight after the wedding. If you are outside Jaipur or had a destination wedding, carry the flowers home, let them dry, then courier them to us. Short on time before travelling abroad? Send them fresh by bus parcel; it reaches us within 1–2 days from anywhere.
Are the petals taken off the garlands?
No. Both garlands are preserved whole, petals on and flowers unbroken; that is what makes it a full varmala frame.
What size is this frame?
There is no fixed size. It is customised to your order, built large around both complete garlands, and your designer confirms the exact size before work starts.
