Before we get into all the ways, you can style your dupatta; we want to cover fashion-related things every desi bride-to-be should know. We believe that every bride should be able to look at her best self on one of the most special days of her life. We want to do our part by bringing you everything every desi bride must know to look her glamorous self. Here is everything you need to know.

  • Outfits For Different Wedding Functions: Pakistani weddings are a royal event, where there are plenty of mini-events. For this reason, you will need a couple of outfits, at least to be the star of the event. We would suggest you diversify your choice of outfits for different events, so as to not look the same on different events of your Shaadi. Here are a few suggestions on what to wear to the different mini-events:
    1. Bridal Shower: Bridal showers are informal events so that you can try and experiment with different colors and styles for this event. If there is a theme that everyone is following for the event, then remember to stick to the theme and choose your outfit accordingly.
    2. Mehandi Event: Mehandis are a traditional event that requires a traditional outfit. Most conventional brides opt for the basic chunri for this day. Still, if you want to change things up a bit, you can experiment with contemporary elements into your traditional outfit.
    3. Baarat Event: Keep it elegant and classy on this day. This is the day when everyone has their eyes on the bride. There are so many colors and styles that you can choose from to choose your perfect bridal outfit.
    4. Reception: You can choose a royally embroidered outfit in a pastel color for this event.
  • Don’t Shy Away From Accessorizing: Bridal jewelry is quite crucial when it comes to setting the tone for the outfit in desi bridal fashion. It adds the finishing to your look, which is why you must choose the right jewelry for your outfit. This is how you can do that:
    1. Mix and match different jewelry items with your dress. You can choose your jewelry in colors that contrast your dress, or you can choose colors that match your dress. Take opinions from people whose fashion sense aligns with your own.
    2. The choice of your jewelry should reflect your sense of style, so try and not follow trends. Listen to your heart and trust where it takes you.
    3. There is a golden rule for bridal outfits- light jewelry should be paired with heavy dresses, and heavy jewelry should be paired with light outfits. Don’t overdo things because you might end up looking like someone who just stepped out of an ad. Less really is more sometimes.
    4. Be confident in your choices and embrace your look once you have decided on the entire outfit.
