The Bold and the Beautiful

The Engagement: Both the groom and the bride may be dressed rather simply for the occasion. Suits for men and Jamdani sarees with very light natural make up and a set of jewelry is a good mix.
The Holud: This is the most colorful ceremony during a wedding. Both the bride and the groom should be dressed in bright attires. The bride should try avoiding gold jewelry and go for more natural jewelry made of flowers.
The other events: include ceremonies like Mehendi (where intricate details of Hena is drawn on the bride’s hands), Sangeeth nights (musical evenings) etc. The bride and the groom should wear Lahengas (blouse and a skirt) and Sherwani suits. It’s alway nice to see the couple sport colored attires together.
The Wedding: This is the big day. The groom should sport a heavy detailed Sherwani suit teamed with a turban, while the bride has an option between a Lahenga or a Saree. Heavy make up and a heavy set of jewelry is also welcomed to celebrate this auspicious day.
Guests: Don’t over do your outfit. Nice embroidered Panjabis or suits for the men teamed with a good pair of shoes. Ladies! Keep your make up simple, play with your hair to make it look different and throw on a saree, a shalwar kameez or even a lahenga. Don’t forget the bling!
