Tips On How To Choose Your Wedding Lehenga!

by Amelia Brynlie Blogger, SEO Executive

Traditionally, Indian brides wear red coloured lehenga and outfits as a symbol of Mars (the planet in charge of marriage in Hindu astrology), but today's modern brides are wearing brilliant Fuschia, tones of emerald, yellow, and, in some cases, all of the above.

When it comes to Indian weddings, we don't just shop for one function: we have at least four to five, and we have to choose the correct outfit, accessories, and add a few more items to our trousseaus to make it all work.

Go to google search "bridal tailor near me" or "wedding dress tailor near me" and find us with our services, and a team of great professionals at your doorstep!

Wedding season is here, so let us help you out with choosing your lehenga!

Phew! Feeling overwhelmed already? Don't be! And just follow the guidelines mentioned below-

Be aware of your financial constraints

When you google "bridal tailor near me" or "wedding dress tailor near me" you might come across some extremely expensive options, but no! Don't be lured into the trap.

Determine how much you want to spend on your lehenga first. For the pheras, you may want to splurge on a designer lehenga, but for the rest of the ceremonies, stick to traditional weaves or saris. Keep an approximate estimate of the cost.

Consider the hidden costs too

You've decided on a backless choli blouse for the reception to go with an Indo-Western silhouette that necessitates purchasing separate jewellery and accessories.

Consider the various hidden costs associated with each outfit. Do you need to buy an extra dupatta for your outfit? Is it true that modifying an off-the-shelf item costs a few thousand rupees more?

Keep a small group of people with you.

However tempting it may feel, it's ideal if you don't bring all of your pals with you when you go shopping. Rather take along your mother, or sister, or a friend who can be bluntly honest with you, because yes that's exactly what you would need! They will give you the truth. Take no more than two persons to assist you in making your final decisions.

Appropriate lingerie

Choose the lingerie you'll most likely wear on your wedding day while purchasing your wedding lehenga. If you're going to wear Spanx or a strapless bra, bring them with you so you can see the whole picture instead of just the straps and bumps.

Be truthful.

You may be adamant about wearing specific colours or styles, but try new silhouettes and colours that are more flattering than you realise!

Keep the flow of the event in mind.

Buying something large, but instead of standing on stage, you'll be circulating the crowd? Or have you chosen something heavy to dance to later in the evening? Keep the event's flow in mind while making your choice.

Your physical appearance

If you're shopping for a few months, don't buy something because you're skinny or gaining weight (if you're really thin). Rather, choose something that will enhance your current body form. After all, if you're uncomfortable on your wedding day, it will show in your body language.

Keep your partner's outfit in mind

Your outfit should go with your partner's outfit too. From complimentary colours to having elements and designs of your outfit incorporated with his, is a great idea!

Make a timely appointment

Showing up unannounced for fittings or picking outfits, is the worst idea ever. Seek an appointment and then only go for the trial, fitting, alteration etc.
