If you’re caught between the madness of organising wedding favours, planning activities and overlooking details of various functions, you shouldn’t have to fret about one more thing, that is looking your best during all the ceremonies. Here are a few ensemble ideas
The only underrated group of individuals who can change a Brideszilla to a total Bridechilla are her squad of loyal bridesmaids! And we do know the importance for all bridesmaids to match up to the charm and charisma of the bride, while not completely outshining her!
But if you’re caught between the madness of organising wedding favours and planning activities and overlooking details of various functions, you shouldn’t have to fret about one more thing, that is looking your best during all the ceremonies.
It is for this reason, we present to you the ultimate list of outfit ideas that all bridesmaids can take cues from for every occasion during your best friend’s wedding!
EVENING OF THE ENGAGEMENT
Kickstart the wedding festivities with romantic colours, flowy fabrics and dainty embroideries in contemporary silhouettes, such as Ridhi Mehra’s. Style your regal ensemble with minimal jewellery and clean pulled-back hair to complete the posh avatar!
HALDI CEREMONY
Serve some serious fashion goals with warm tones, lehariya prints and immaculate floral embroidery for the auspicious haldi ceremony by designers Sukriti & Aakriti and Gulabo Jaipur. Add that remarkable touch to your traditional ensemble by styling your dupatta over the shoulders for a demure look.
RITUAL OF MEHNDI
Channel a vivacious vibe for the ritual as you are caught between collating all the mehndi favours and other wedding frenzy! Gulabo Jaipur’s bright pastels with floral detailing and intricate thread-work reflects the essence of traditional chic while Sukriti & Aakriti’s revival of phulkari evokes a sense of pride in our hearts — both of which are apt for the merriment around the mehndi ceremony.
SANGEET SHENANIGANS
What can be more breathtaking than a saree or a lehenga for your best friend’s sangeet ceremony? An opulent pre-draped pant or lehenga saree by Ridhi Mehra! Beautiful pearl embroidered blouses, ruffled hems and chiffon plush fabrics in rich hues embody all the dreamy and fun shenanigans of the sangeet or cocktail evening.
THE SACRED VOWS
Be it dolling up in the prettiest of lehengas or adorning the most gorgeous floral jewellery, bridesmaids today are all game for making spectacular style statements, (sometimes even co-ordinated) for their close friend’s pheras. Sukriti & Aakriti’s resuscitation of the intricate craft of phulkari commemorates this special occasion while being an absolute treat for the bohemia admirers.
RECEPTION UNDER THE STARS
As you save the best for the last, the evening of the reception demands a certain amount of extravagance, so no shying away! Instead, slip into those gorgeous jewel-toned lehengas, embellished blouses and elaborately embroidered sarees and shararas to complement the grandeur of the night. Even better, pair your minimal looks with navratna ornate belts like Ridhi Mehra’s or strikingly magnificent dupattas by Sukriti & Aakriti.
So go big or go home for your best friend’s wedding festivities this wonderful winter season as there is no time for it such as now!
