Indian weddings have always been known to be a grand affair and for all the right reasons. The term ‘great fat Indian wedding’ has not earned its title for nothing. If you have been to one, you would agree that this title is indeed justified.
When we talk about the wedding lexicon, there is nothing more surreal than the bride embracing the path less taken with her choices. Indian weddings are marked by an enormous list of to-dos from the venue, guest list, and most importantly, the sartorial choices. Does not really matter if the soon-to-be-married couple is ready for the whirlwind of celebrations or not, their schedule is packed with a cosmic amount of functions.
While there is no second opinion over the fact that the outfit in which you take your pheras has to be the most fascinating one, it does not imply that the outfits for your other festivities should take a backseat.
Here are a few outfits that would be an ideal pick for different wedding ceremonies.
Timeless Classics
Rest assured, your journey from engagement to the mandap will be replete with innumerable ceremonies, all of which will have a special relevance of their own.
You can definitely fall back to the timeless classics such as embroidered and Benarasi sarees that have been passed down by generations for your ring ceremony. Pathani, gotta-patti, or gora work saree are other timeless classics that help you get a surreal feel.
For an ultimately regal look, you can check out the exquisite collection of sarees and blouses from Anita Dongre. The sumptuous Laboni Benarasi saree by Anita Dongre will be an ideal pick.
Comfy Silhouettes
The wedding festivities can surely be overwhelming. With the endless banter, meeting friends and relatives, and sitting through over an hour-long puja and whatnot, the ceremonies are anything but easy. Well, nobody would want to sit through these ceremonies wearing clothes that look charming but feel uncomfortable. So, what can possibly make you feel at ease? You should always choose lightweight outfits like breezy kaftans with subtle embroidery or brocade skirts that keep feeling light throughout your pre-wedding puja maybe. Lightweight dresses also exude minimalism and versatility. They are ideal for the to-be brides who love keeping it comfy and luxe.
Fusion Wear
If you love experimenting and are willing to put an edgy spin to the classic Indian silhouettes, then charming fusion wear is just what we are talking about! Surely, designer bridal lehenga and Nehru jacket for men are quintessential wedding outfits, but have you thought of adding a contemporary touch to the timeless classics? Draped trousers, intricate jackets, and on-trend dhoti pants will surely be a pure show-stopper. The Mehendi ceremony gives you more room to experiment and blend in the traditional with the modern. Try opting for an easy breezy voguish skirt with a cut-out crop top to get the dream-like Mehendi look. If you are looking for an eclectic outfit, then the Fayez skirt set from Anita Dongre is just what you need.
Western Ensembles
For the times when the occasion is not so traditional, like the cocktail night, bachelorette party, or an ultimate pre-wedding party, you would definitely turn to an eclectic range of western ensembles. It is a must to thoughtfully invest in a dream-like western sartorial collection for events that do not necessitate wearing traditional attire. Steal the spotlight by donning an upward trending pant suit set by Anita Dongre. Or better yet, you can absolutely ace your look by slipping on a tiered dress or a jumpsuit at your bachelorette party.
