Designer wedding dreams

Ladies in their stylish best and gentlemen in their finest evening wear, get ready to welcome the bride and the groom.
Indeed, an Indian wedding matches every description of indulgence. From breathtaking themes to lip smacking cuisines to the best of songs, our weddings are not a one-day affair. But amidst all the preparations, the most important question remains the same: What are the bride and the groom wearing?
If you are a bride who wants to ditch the reds, go for vibrant combos like teal and coral, mauve and wine, purple and blue or olive and mauve.But a red and golden lehenga with exquisite traditional detail work has the power to leave everyone breathless.
For a rick look, make sure your trousseau sparkles with Swarovski crystals. Go for rich fabrics like silks, velvet, georgette, brocade and net and loads of gota detailing, zari work, Kashmiri embroidery or colourful metallic sequin work and add that required oomph to your ensemble. Velvet is perfect for the bride who wants to have a rich look.
One can also go for dupattas with heavily embroidered patterns on the ends or corsets and backless blouses for saris and lehengas. Men should go for Indo-Western outfits, high neck club wear suits or churidaar kurtas in self embroidered fabrics. Go for jacquard if you want to rule your wedding. It’s all about coordination between the bride and the groom, vibrant and bright colours and feeling special. A wedding is a journey which begins with love and belief. Let it have the perfect dreamlike start.
