Weddings are times of grand celebration of two people in love, taking vows and getting united for a lifetime. Over the time, these have evolved from being political manoeuvres to being celebrations of love and the nuptial bonds.
And for the precious unification, dressing up and decorating the places mean a lot to be would-be brides and grooms. The wedding day is often referred to as Bride’s Day and she gets the opportunity to have everything her way, because the day comes once in a lifetime. Be it loud or subtle, red or white, whatever happens with the décor and dresses, happens her way!
White Replacing Other Colours as Wedding Attires
Indian dresses are diverse as the cultures, rituals, regions, religions and dressing, food habits that make up the vast country that India is. While in some parts, the Indian wedding dresses tend to be red, symbolising auspiciousness, or green, representing fertility, the wedding dresses in a few parts of India are usually white or cream coloured.
“White is already the go-to bridal colour in several Indian states like Kerala, Assam and Gujarat. But there is a considerable change in the mainstream colour palette too now. More brides are opting for white, ivory and off-white to match their contemporary vision for their big day,” as explained by designer Ridhi Mehra on the change of colours of bridal outfits.
Brides who don’t want a stereotypical look, for them white is the perfect option. The appeal of white outfits can be elevated with hints of pink, blue, gold, red, green embellishments, embroidery or lacework. The bridal wardrobe has now become a way to speak the brides’ minds through the outfits they choose.
While for the main event, brides can opt for traditional Indian sarees, lehengas or Anarkali Suits, the airy and comfortable Indian suits can be an option for the morning events or rituals.
