Malhotra said that the 32-year-old actress wore Saif's grandmother's traditional gharara for the ceremony last night.
The actor's mother Sharmila Tagore had worn the same gharara at her own ‘nikaah'. She then passed it on to her son's new wife.
Delhi-based designer Ritu Kumar was given the responsibility of restoring and embellishing the gharara.
“I worked on the antique Pataudi gharara that was restored by Ritu Kumar for Kareena's wedding... we did the final fittings and added a bit of touch of embroidery here and there,” Malhotra said.
“When Saif and Kareena exchanged vows... she wore Sharmilaji's gharara for some time,” Malhotra said.
Later, Kareena changed into a Malhotra creation for the post-wedding party and Saif donned a Banarsi brocade ‘achkan' by designer Raghvendra Rathore.
“Kareena wore a burgundy color embellished gharara with maroon duppatta. I gave a very old world charm to all the ghararas. The party had 80-100 people and went on till 3 am,” Malhotra said.
