Dress up a little differently on your wedding day

Well, it’s Deepavali time and many would have already stocked up on crackers and started making sweets and getting the last-minute shopping done.

And then there are the gonna-be couples who wish to tie the knot in the festive mood. Apart from the usual classics of red-gold or black and white, try going in for bright colours or muted tones to give a fresh look to your trousseau.

GREEN-YELLOW

While the canary yellow and plush green are never a wrong combo, pairing them up on your big day will not only give you a different look but also pave the ‘start’ of your chapter together. While the bride can team up with a yellow saree or a lehenga with green motifs, the bridegroom can wear a dark tone green sherwani.

BLUSH IN PINK

A trending colour in recent Bollywood marriages, light pink or baby pink is turning out to be the latest tone. With ShaMira, Virushka sporting it on their big days, you can also wear it on your special day, by keeping it simple and classy or embellishing it with heavy stones.

SAME TO SAME

When two hearts become one, what’s with wearing the same outfit. Not just wearing the same shade, if you wear clothes from the same material, it will not only make you feel special but also everyone would go gaga over the love between you.

KEEPING IT MINIMAL

Weddings are just about everything overboard. From makeup to food, everything is added extra, so can clothes be far behind? But it would be wise if you did not keep the tones a bit down and it can be done without the usual colours. Wearing a mermaid gown of sapphire blue, the bridegroom can match it with a three piece suit of gray and can keep the bow in blue so as to complement the bride.

YELLOW FEVER

Apart from mehendi / handi function, yellow is not often used for wedding wear. Break out of the stereotype and go out in bright yellow hue to welcome your special day with open arms. Pairing with the bright yellow lehenga, the groom can also either dress fully in the same with marigold yellow with a yellow turban or dress down in cream so that the pair dazzles with their soft yet bright hues.
