Goa is on the bucket list of every friends group. The people who hardly get permission for night outs have a Goa trip with friends on their bucket list. The people who have travelled all over Asia have a Goa trip on their bucket list. You may or may not have already checked that off. But imagine a beach wedding in Goa. With all the shacks, the booze, a Christian style wedding, or any style of wedding in a dainty church. It is all too perfect!

How will it even work!

If you are worried about getting all the guests you mean to invite for your wedding, stop right there. A Goa wedding is to be attended by close friends and family. You invite only the closest friends, with whom you had been planning a Goa trip forever, or with whom you mean to travel the world. You get your family and some close relatives and set out for a once in a lifetime opportunity to have a wedding in Goa. You can go back to your city and invite the others for a unique wedding reception.

Selecting the Best Venue

Since you are in a different city, you will need a lot of assistance from the city’s event organisers. You can take your makeup artist and hairstylist along with you if you just won’t accept anybody else. But you cannot sponsor an entire team of wedding planners for the same. Even if you can, it does not make sense because you won’t need to.

Goa has been a wedding destination for quite a while now. The city knows how to take care of its foreign vacation tourists and the wedding tours alike. But you do need to arrange everything, including the venue before you reach. Every season is peak season in Goa. Do not expect to just end up there and find 10 rooms and a hall ready for you to get married in if you haven’t booked one.

Factors to Consider

There are many great hotels and resorts in Goa which are suitable for a grand and unique wedding ceremony. But you might not like them all alike. Find out about them to select the one that best suits your needs.

Here are some factors you must keep in mind while looking for the right venue for your Goa destination wedding.

1. The Budget

The budget is very important. You cannot forget you have a reception to host back home. But you also need to make sure you enjoy to the fullest and do everything you want to do on your dream destination wedding. This is why you need to settle on a budget which is generous to begin with but isn’t too much for your bank balance.

1. The Wedding

You need a minister to ordain your wedding, and a church if that’s where you want to get married. If you are not going for a Christian style wedding, you need to look for a local pandit and every arrangement for the wedding. The decorations and everything is there to be taken care of as well. This is why you will need a wedding planner. You can work your way around things in your own city. But when you are on a destination wedding, you need to book a professional wedding planning agency along with the hotel bookings.

1. Venue

You need to book a venue that will provide you with a wedding hall, all the arrangements, and all amenities you want to avail for your guests. You need to make sure that the venue is impressive but also suits your budget. You also need to ensure that the location of the venue is convenient. It should be very close to the beach if you want a beach wedding. It should be close to the airport and main road if you invited a lot of people.

1. Cuisine

It is the norm that on a destination wedding, you serve the cuisine of the destination. You can go for an all Goan cuisine or mix and match it with some Goan dishes and some dishes from your home city. That way, both, people who like to taste different cuisines and people who like to stick to their usual fancy dishes, will be satisfied.

1. Caterers

Sometimes the planners do not have in house caterers. They sign deals with individual caterers. You need to find out if the event planners have their own caterers. It is best that way because the responsibility factor will be higher on the planners if it is their own caterers. Also, hiring a separate team of caterers is costlier than hiring a wedding planning agency that comes with catering services.

1. Equipment

The event planners should be equipped with every equipment you need for the wedding. But you need to think about the things you’ll need and create a list of equipments. You also have to make sure that all the equipments are tested and brought to the location the night before the wedding.

1. Transportation and Accommodation

You will need to arrange for transportation for the guests if the wedding venue is at a distance from the hotel you booked rooms in. You need to book rooms for your guests in advance so that you don’t have to pay surged prices. You need to arrange for transportation if a guest is in need or if anybody is reaching Goa on the very day of the wedding.

1. Alcohol

There are permits to deal with and orders to be placed. Make sure there’s enough booze for everybody. Hire a mixologist who will make dope cocktails and mocktails for everybody. After all, it is a destination wedding in Goa. It has to feel like one.

1. Hospitality

Apart from the transport and accommodation, which is definitely the responsibility of the host, you also need to take care of every little matter where your hospitality counts. It is a different city after all. A guest who is feeling sick for some reason cannot go home. You need to have some trusted members of the family for the same. You need to take care of the bride and groom and ensure they have fun.

You can be a close friend or family of the bride or groom. This destination wedding demands two things. Firstly, a happy newly wedded couple. Secondly, happy satisfied guests. Send hangover kits and breakfast to the guest rooms the morning after. Arrange for a cab for those who are leaving the next day. These gestures count.

A wedding signifies the sacred bond two people are to share for a lifetime. But that does not mean there can be no room for some healthy competition. In fact, these healthy contests set the tone for a marriage where two best friends keep challenging each other. So, if the bride is making her entry on horseback, get the groom to enter on an elephant. That was just an example. You can do much better than that with your groom entry ideas. In fact, here is a complete list of wedding ideas for groom entry.

Just make sure, whatever you do, if it is elaborate, plan it right. If you think you don’t have the time or budget to pull it off with ace, abort mission and think of something more realistic. However, if you think you can afford to arrange for the most stunning Indian bridegroom entry idea, don’t shy away. Give it your best shot. Also, make sure there is a professional photographer and videographer with the unique wedding photography ideas to capture the grand moment so that you can flaunt it for a lifetime.

Fantastic Indian Groom Entry Ideas

Check out these jaw dropping Groom Entry Ideas and choose the one that suits your style the best.

1. Chopper

Yes, get a chopper to drop you off at the wedding. This idea is not as far fetched as it apparently looks like. Of course it is jaw dropping, but it is not impossible. Take a chopper on rent. You could pull in some favours from anybody related to choppers in any way, to make sure you get a chopper for an hour on your wedding day. Have the chopper drop you off in style. Train your body to hang on to a rope with ease. Nothing can beat this wedding entry and it does not cost a fortune irrespective of what preconceived notions you might have. The only prerequisite factor is, there has to be enough open space to pull this off.

1. Bike

What’s so special about riding a bike? You did that every day to pick your girlfriend up. Doesn’t the wedding deserve something more? Well, it is not a regular bike ride. Ride in style with your entire squad on bikes. Maybe surprise your bride with a new Harley you were planning on buying. Even if it is your old bike, you will amaze everybody as you enter in slow motion with all your guys following you. If you have some female biker friends, have them right beside you to make your girlfriend jealous for the last time. Here’s a secret, she will only be proud and happy inside while she shows fake jealousy.

1. Tractor

If you are getting married in a village, maybe in a farmhouse, have a tractor decked up for your wedding. If you are feeling more ambitious, ride it yourself. Take tractor driving lessons in secret at least for a month before the D day. You could also chill and sit at the back with panache.

1. Live band

Saw the Maroon 5 Sugar video? Do something like that. Secretly hire a rising band or a popular one if money is no matter. Make them play the best romantic yet peppy numbers while you enter along with them. It would be best to hire your bride’s favourite band if you can. You could also make a budding band play your bride’s favourite dance number. She will have a tough time controlling her feet from getting on with the beat.

1. Tanga

If your bride is entering on horseback, you enter on a tanga. Get a golden Royal chariot and have two handsome horses ride you into your wedding. Here’s a tip. If you can befriend the horses beforehand, you can flaunt you gentle side by cuddling the horses right after having entered like an alpha. The reaction of the horses will be worth capturing. Moreover, if your bride is a wild child, she will fall in love with you all over again. Unlike in other vehicle entry ideas, don’t try to ride this one on your own. Sit back like royalty.

1. Professional dancer

Just like a live band, you could hire a professional dancer to enter with you. Randomly dancing your way into your own wedding is so not stylish. But if you have practised some real moves in secret, with a popular celebrity dancer, you could totally own the day! Enter in style with a popular dancer and a group of dancer friends right behind you. Redefine perfection.

1. Segway

You might have already thought about this one. If you haven’t, maybe you now have a winner. The segway is still cool and you should make use of it before the trend becomes a cliché. Take some segway riding lessons well in time because it is not as easy as it looks. You cannot falter, and you will be in elaborate Indian groom wear. Keeping all that in mind rehearse well and make it perfect. You can team this up with more friends on segways. Don’t smile, don’t wave. Just enter with your head held high and maybe some cool shades, even if it is way past daytime. You will look cool. Don’t forget to come out of character and go back to being the smiling happy Indian groom the moment the entry is over.

1. Elephant

You can go for the classic horseback as well but to make it something different, yet keep it traditional, go for an elephant with a huge traditional red umbrella covering you.

To add to the effects, have your friends clear the way on bikes. If that is too much for the elephant to take, have them walk on feet making way with colour bombs so that your pathway into the wedding looks as colourful as your married life is going to be.

1. Cold pyro

Wherever you use the colour bombs during the day use cold pyro at night. You can even go for pyro in the daytime. Though it won’t stand out. Stick to cold pyro for the wedding venue because there will be a lot of fabrics in the decors and a lot of people waiting on you and the bride. So, stay safe. You can always back the cold pyro with some actual fireworks going on at a distance. This will add to the background effects and set the mood for a big fat Indian wedding. The best thing about cold pyro is that you can combine it with any of the other entry ideas. You can have cold pyro lead an elephant’s way if it can be trained to do so. You can have cold pyro on a tractor, or while you are on your segway. All you need is some dedicated and well organised friends.

1. The ambush

This, if you can pull off, will be the best of all groom entry ideas for your wedding. You can club this one with any other idea, like the pyro. You could have a group of dancers or a band perform at the main entrance while you sneak in from a smartly designed back entrance. While everybody will be distracted looking the other way, trying to find the groom, enter and sit in your royal seat, waiting for someone to figure out you’re already there.

This one is tricky though. Many people may not fall for the bait, ruining your sneaky entry. People could take too long to realise you’re there. It might strike panic. What you need to pull this one off successfully is at least 20 volunteers who you can discuss the idea with, without them spilling it out. They should assist the sneaky entry, and crowd around you so that nobody sees you enter. If need be, they could bring people’s attention to the groom when they are looking in the wrong direction for too long.

These were some groom entry ideas for the Indian bridegroom. It is not easy for an Indian wedding groom to pull off an entry that is at par with the ideas of Indian bridal entry. But with these wedding ideas for groom, you can show everybody that a modern Indian wedding is just as much about the groom as it is about the bride.

Revolutionize the New Concept

The concept of bride entry is relatively new. It has been going on for just about a few years now. Of course, it might have started long back but it is only getting popular now. So, you might not have a lot of examples at hand. But that is good. Why? That is because you get to BE the example! Set the best example for the most dhamaakedaar wedding entry by choosing the best of all bridal entry ideas for your wedding. Own the day and own everybody with your stunning entry.

Create an Impact

You know you do want to turn heads, but how? The same dance with your pals while entering has become too cliché already. And well, why dance at your own bridal entry? Your bride entry ideas should be something that makes other people’s hearts dance and the groom’s heart skip a beat. Of course, you can dance and enter all you want if you know that is your thing. You can own the stage and the pathway to the stage. Dance away. But this list is going to give some new bridal entry ideas which will help you hypnotize everybody.

A Fresh take on Bride Entry Ideas

The bride entry ideas suggested here are something that hasn’t been done too often. So, let the older, more conventional adults take their time to get used to the entire concept of wedding entry. Meanwhile, awe everybody else who think the bridal entry is cliché too, with these bridal entry ideas so that they know they haven’t yet seen it all.

Cinderella

You can go for a royal blue wedding dress, of course, the Indian way. A beautiful blue lehenga or elaborate designer saree will be a fresh spectacle. It will be better than the usual red. And of course, you must have your pumpkin chariot. Hire people to get you a chariot resembling Cinderella’s. Have your coachmen and horses just the way it is supposed to be.This will mark the beginning of a dream wedding. As if that weren’t enough, you don’t even have to leave the moment the clock strikes 12! This day is yours, and so is the next.

Mughal Chariot

If you want to keep it more Indian go for the rich history. Get yourself a beautiful chariot or palki with Mughal artwork all over it. Get your coachmen dress up like Mughals. Enter into a beautiful wedding and make it royal like the moment you enter. 
You can dress to fit the theme of your entry or you could leave the theme just at the entrance and carry on with the rest of the wedding as you like. But a royal entry itself rubs its richness off on the rest of the day, wherever you go. First impressions, eh?

Horseback

Why should boys have all the fun? Horseback entry is not just for the groom. Horses are beautiful and they deserve to have someone even more stunning ride on their back. This one beats all kinds of stereotypes without saying a word. But you don’t have to think about that. Not everything has to be about feminism. Why you will ride the horse is because you are a boss and horses are adorable.

Get Accompanied by a Pet

Not many people have their horses. If you do, the last idea is pretty much this idea. But for everyone else, who loves their pet, which is not a horse, this one is for you. Have your pet, be it a dog or a cat, or any animal that can walk on land, dressed up and walk with you with a sign saying “Best man” or “Bridesmaid” or “I’m still number 1”. That will show everybody what your priorities are. Well, of course, the marriage, but first, your best friend for life! Walk into your new life with the most trusted old friend. Need we say more?

Smoke Bombs

This one will set the mood right for a bright daytime wedding. Have colourful smoke bombs pave your way into your wedding. Have your friends lined up on either sides and release the bombs as you keep walking through. The colourful smoke will create a perfect canopy for you to walk under. You need to be smart keeping enough distance so that the colours don’t get on your bridal dress though. So you could have someone accompany you with a beautiful umbrella. That not only saves your dress and makeup but also adds to the effect of the boss lady.

Fireworks

If the wedding is after sunset, the colour bombs won’t do the trick. So it is the same idea with firecrackers. It will light up your way into your new life and it will light a kindle in the groom’s heart as he watches your face dazzling in the light of the golden fireworks that your friends hold out for you. This is simple, hassle-free idea that will make all the difference. Everybody participating and assisting in this entry must be careful though. Have a safe wedding entry.

Auto Rickshaw

Nothing screams Bollywood like a decked up auto rickshaw. With some practice, you can ride it yourself! Wear a funky pair of shades and ride into your own wedding and that will be the perfect entry for the ultimate bride. If you don’t want to ride it, cool enough, have a dear close friend give you a ride while you sit at the back with two best pals who make all the noise for you. They could be carrying colour bombs or fireworks too to add to the effect.

Motorbike Entry

This is rad. Once again, you could ride it, or have your best friend ride it for you. Tough choice to have to pick just one best friend or sibling? Have one of your parents ride you. Don’t forget to wear your swag. Make it a slow entry so that everybody has the time to gawk at you and the photographers have the chance to capture the brilliant moment. Also, of course so that you don’t crash into your own wedding decorations.

With all the Little Ones

Have your little nieces and nephews and the toddlers of your friends and relatives all lined up around you while you enter. This will be the most endearing spectacle of the wedding. The groom will fall in love with you once again. This brings out the feminine side in you like nothing else could. Whether you are thinking about parenthood or not, as a couple, you will definitely be seen as endearing people. Of course, depending on how you choose to enter and laugh, this could as well bring out the child within you. This will remind your new family to love you like their own child.

Balloons and Bubbles

Talking about inner child, have helium balloons launched as you enter and line up friends to make soap bubbles that you wade through. This is fun and simple and cost effective too. You know you want to have fun and this kind of an entry will again remind everybody to pamper you like you deserve to be. So, these were some unique bride entry ideas that are more than just dancing all the way in. You can dance too if you want or have people dance for you. The point is, your wedding entry must make people go ‘Wow!’ These bridal entry ideas right here will surely do the trick for you. Plan it ahead and have the most reliable friends assist you with the execution of the plan. If the bride entry is a hit, the wedding will be a hit.

You need to remember every little detail you could miss out on your own appearance. One mistake many brides make is to ignore arm jewellery despite wearing a short-sleeved blouse. If you are wearing short sleeves, please do not ignore the idea of bridal armlets. If you don’t like the discomfort which you might feel from a jewellery on your arm, go for a heavily embroidered long-sleeved blouse. But, if you are all about jewellery, try the following Baajubandh designs.

• The Classic Baajubandh

Baajubandh is a typical Indian bridal jewellery. The arm looks beautiful in it. It helps the arms look adorned instead of so empty. If you want more attention focused on your arm, adorn it with a royal or classic style from the Baajubandh designs. Check out the historic Bollywood movies to know what it actually looks like.

• Traditional Temple Jewellery

The classic gold armlets with leaves and floral designs may look boring to some but the ones who know the value of temple jewellery will find it rich and elegant. Temple jewellery is more popular with South Indian brides. This kind of armlet is as traditional as it gets.

• Marathi Mulgi

The Marathi Baajubandh can be made of solid gold or of any other precious or semi-precious metal. They are colourful and represent the vigour of the Marathi blood. These colourful armlets will complement your wedding attire.

• Shine Bright like Diamonds

If you want to flaunt your riches, go for diamond jewellery and do not forget the diamond armlet. Wear it on just one arm though. It would look ridiculous on both arms.

• Kundan

You can never go wrong with Kundan. The colourful stones on the gold base are ideal for any occasion and any kind of wedding. Whatever the colour of your blouse may be, Kundan armlet will look good with it. If you are going for Kundan, make sure the armlet is on the wider side. You want to flaunt some nice stones on it. Otherwise, what is the purpose of wearing Kundan even!

• U shaped Armlet

Go for an open end one if you don’t want to tie it around. If you want something you can wear and take off yourself, go for this type. If you are conscious of fatty arms, go for this type because the slender look of the armlet will make your arm look slender. Do not tighten it too much though, that again will make you look fatter. Let the armlet rest on your skin just tight enough to not start coming loose.

• Peacock or Elephant Designs

When we think about the traditional armlet, the snake design pops to our mind, but that isn’t quite ideal for a wedding. Elephant and peacock designs, on the other hand, have always been a good sign, a welcome design. If you like animal designs on jewellery, go for it. Some people even consider this a lucky charm. A peacock feather shaped armlet is also just as appreciated.

• Bangles

The bangle styled bridal armlet is apparently easy to wear because you just slide it up like bangles, only, all the way up to your upper arm.

• Colour Riches

If you do not want to invest a lot of money in gold or diamond, go for a simpler material. Do not worry about it looking cheap. A decent material is enough, as long as the jewellery is rich in colours. The colours can range from yellow to green to shades of pink. You can use any colour stones or print on your armlet. This kind of armlet is quite popular among South Indian bridal jewellery.

• Royal Silver

Gold is too mainstream. Some people don’t even like the yellow colour. But silver never fails. Silver has its own sheen and even diamond cannot give that exact colour. Go for a silver armlet if you want to look absolutely stunning. There are many options. The simplest chain of thread design can be worn on both the arms. The wider design needs to be worn on a single arm. The semi-loop design is one such elaborate design that is enough in a singular piece.

• Tribal Designs

Be it the intricate spiral design or chunky ones, the tribal designs look good on your arms in any material and thickness. Tribal armlets are precious and their value keeps increasing with every passing year. The tribal designs are cool and you can flaunt the design happily.

• All Stones

With this one, your friends will call you Thanos but they won’t mean it, of course. If you love gemstones and ornate designs go for an armlet with intricate patterns like in a tiara, studded with colourful little stones.

• Chunky Centrepiece

Get a broad armlet with a chunky centrepiece in whichever stone or colour you like. Emerald, ruby, turquoise, sapphire, the list is endless. You can go for diamond as well but diamonds look better on an armlet in a cluster of smaller stones.

• Custom Made

Get your own creative ideas for your wedding armlet. This can become a family heirloom. It is so personalised, there will not be a single another piece identical to it. This will represent your uniqueness and the originality of the couple.

These bridal armlet design ideas will help you get some knowledge about the type of armlets available. You are not obligated to choose from just this list of course. This is a list of common beautiful designs. You can make your own design or combine two of these ideas to make a new one of your own. Whatever you do, do not let your arms go bare on your wedding day.

• Suits in Deep Colours

Suits have been the in-thing ever since. Haven’t we seen our fathers and uncles, practically everyone in the family wearing suits on every other important occasion? Well, yes it is the most common preference but let us tell you even a suit has undergone a lot of change and today men are able to carry utterly stylish suits like never before. Let us tell you bold colours are apt for the Indian men. They suit all complexions and dusky Indian men can carry off this colour with ease.

A Nehru jacket adds so much grace and when paired with western wear, it adds an oomph factor! Men prefer to western Nehru jacket today than ever before and let us tell you it is a fashion statement which adds a distinct demeanour to your overall look. Opt for any kind of design in a Nehru jacket whether plain or printed, there are no constraints. If your pants and shirt are light coloured then opt for a dark coloured Nehru jacket and vice versa. Plain western wear can really look so much more awesome with a Nehru jacket.

• Cowl Kurtas

One trend which most people find difficult to relate to but are such a trend this season is the cowl kurtas. Yeah, we bet many in your family would laugh off with your outfit choice or wouldn’t be able to relate to it, but let us tell you if you want to stand out wearing something which makes people go weak in the knees, then a nice stylish cowl kurta is the ideal choice.

Pairing these up with some pearls would be the best idea if you want people to be swooning over your look. You are certainly going to look every bit of that royal groom we only dream of!

Chic, trendy and ethnic – they are here to make you look smart. You will find some really nice designs and lovely colours in most designer stores these days and it is not difficult to find what suits you best. So, go for it!

• Semi-formal Outfits

We love the men who are semi-formal. They are cool, chic, fun and full of positive vibes. Wouldn’t you want your bride’s eyes to instantly brighten up the moment she sees you on the engagement day? Yes, then its time you walk away from the traditional stuff and opt for a semi-formal outfit. An ideal choice for the modern man who’s confident, bold and doesn’t shy away from being different, this is what your engagement attire should be like! Simply wear denim with a jacket or pick a trendy printed cotton shirt and pair it with a blazer. We bet you will completely nail the look with this one! One of the most fun engagement dresses for men, it is perfect and full of swag!

• Pathani Suits

Most men today prefer to wear Pathani suits as they are comfortable and also look fancy besides being royal and classy. Opt for a pastel tone or a dark colour tone, whichever you prefer. Simply pick a colour which suits your complexion and wear Juttis with it to complete your look. We bet you will be the talk of the day with this one!

Dressing contributes a lot to your personality and when it’s your engagement, make sure your dressing style complements your personality and adds to your character. Above all, be comfortable, be you and wear something which you most relate to. Don’t go overboard; just add a little elegance and a bit of style. Along with your lady, get ready to impress the invites with your mild and classic choices, after all the eyes are on you as well!!! All the best!

An Indian pool party is one such unique idea that will fetch you eternal glory if you can pull it off right. Since it is the season of summer weddings we will elaborate some pool party ideas for a successful wedding pool party at the venue itself. For this, you will need to choose a venue that has a pool you can exclusively hire for the wedding day or before.

You can have the pool party a day before the wedding, just for the special guests, the closest ones. Or you can have the pool party for the entire guest list at the wedding. It is recommended to go for short exclusive wedding guest list for such events. But if you can pull it off, you can invite all 1000 wedding guests to the pool party. You can also make the party exclusive to kids and have some adults appointed to manage the pool party.

Whichever way you go with the pool party guest list, here are some cool pool party ideas to make it a success.

• Pool Noodles

This fun toy option is a must-have for a pool party. Get flower shaped or any designed pool noodles and cut them up in equal or varying sizes and put them in the water few minutes before the party starts. Buy the pool noodles from a good brand because this will go in the water that the children might end up swallowing while in the pool. In a summer wedding, this is the best way to keep the kids occupied.

• Baseball Strings

Balloons burst outdoors in the sun, so replace balloons with baseball. Tie them up in strings and make a beach party theme. This area of the wedding is dedicated to the cool people. You can have a men vs. women baseball match in the pool as well.

• Inflatable Toys

The kids can use some inflatable toys in and around the pool to practice their wrestling. Any child with too much energy needs to face these toys to get their energies channelized. If you are leaving your kids at a pool party at the wedding venue, so that you can enjoy your best friend’s wedding without worries, inflatable toys will make your child feel safe. They are neither breakable nor sharp around the edges. Your kids will be safe with these.

• Balloons

Some balloons are necessary no matter how many baseballs you tied to strings. Leave some balloons floating on the pool. The colours of the balloons should be in sync with the rest of the wedding decoration. The children and the grownups can enjoy playing with the balloons in the pool.

• Gummy Bear Smoothies

Poolside refreshments are mandatory. If you are serving refreshments at the wedding venue, you need to serve some at the poolside venue as well and they need to be different. Make some cold smoothies and add gummy bears on top to make the children happy.

• Summer Cupcakes

Get some summer special cupcakes baked for the poolside refreshments counter. They can be your usual chocolate and red velvet cupcakes, but with a fondant top of a smiley sun, or cool shades, or a soda drink, anything for summer.

• Photo Booth

A wedding photo booth is a must at the venue. If you have a separate pool party going on you need a separate photo booth for that. Keep props like cool swimsuits and shades for the people jumping into the pools. They will love to get some pictures with these props.

• Treasure Hunt

For the good swimmers, keep an under the pool treasure hunt game where the contestants need to go down to the floor of the pool to find the treasure that needs to be collected. This is a good excuse to return favours in the form of little gifts. Gift something to the winning team and something to the participating teams as well. This pool party will make the wedding unforgettable.

• Gift sets Sunblock, Shades, Towels

Keep gift sets ready to encourage more guests into your pool party. Keep cartoon themed towels for the children and sober coloured good quality towels for the grownups. Keep a good sunblock in the set and some cool pair of beach shades for all.

• Beachside

To add to the beach party effect, have an actual beach party theme and create a sand floor area to build forts in, near the pool area. This kind of arrangement is possible only at a big multi-star wedding venue at a destination wedding. Flaunt your lavish style with this beach pool party theme.

A pool party is still an unusual deal for an Indian wedding. But you can make it a thing by pulling it off perfectly. Your Indian pool party might as well set the yardstick for all wedding pool parties to follow.

Now, you need a wedding ring and engagement ring for your partner. If you don’t have it in the family already, you will have to find one. It is extra work, but you get to choose your partner’s engagement ring. That is fun. Browse through all the engagement ring pictures you can. Go through all the catalogues at the best jewellery shops. Take your time to come to a decision. To make your job easier, here are some engagement ring designs and related ideas that will help you find the perfect shape, size, and design of engagement ring for your partner.

• Vintage

When we hear ‘wedding ring’ or ‘engagement ring’, we always think about family heirlooms. After all these generations of changing customs and mixing of traditional practices from all over the world, you stand equal chances of having an engagement ring from your family heirloom. If you do have one, it will be a classic piece. You will have nothing to worry about. Do not take it out at the last moment though. It might need some polishing. If you don’t have an engagement ring in your family, you should start the tradition again. A princess cut or round diamond ring for the bride or a cushion cut for the groom, keep it classic so that it remains timeless when you pass it on to your child.

• Charm

A marriage can use all the luck and blessings it can have. So, why not put that luck in the engagement ring? Get the rings blessed from a temple you both or just you believe in. Many people are atheists now and even more, have inter-religion marriages. There are ways to keep a lucky charm alive even for them. Whatever stone you believe is lucky for your partner, go for that for your engagement ring, make him or her do the same.

• Self Designed

The wedding is about the bride and groom. If you both can design the engagement rings yourself, it will be the most personalised thing ever. Design your partner’s engagement ring yourself, you will love it. You will only have to imagine a shape and decide the number of stones, the colours, and the base material. It will be done by the professionals so do not worry about getting it right. You just need to give them your engagement ring ideas.

• Laurel

The laurel design of engagement ring or wedding band is trendy now and will be timeless 100 years from now. If you want to spend only a reasonable amount of money on the engagement ring but want it to be beautiful anyway, go for this design. The leaves and intricate detail on the bands will make you gawk at the ring time and again.

• Flower

A rose shaped engagement ring is beautiful and uncommon. If you find this design, do not go for anything else. You can find other singular flower shapes as well. This can be treated as a part of bridal jewellery too. The Laurel and flower engagement ring patterns are mostly both for the bride. For the groom, you need to go for a more solid design.

• Embossed/engraved

Get your engagement rings personalised by embossing a personal symbol of love on the top of it. You can get your names engraved on each other’s rings. You can get the wedding date engraved on the inside of the ring, or any date that you both think is the most significant one as far as the couple is concerned.

• Matching Wedding Band

Get matching wedding bands with each other. Engagement rings are more personalised and they have more design options and shapes. Wedding bands are however simpler. Get similar wedding bands for each other. Buy a set together. They usually do come in sets of wedding ring for bride and groom. You can also use it as a couple wedding gift.

• Replicas

If you are planning on wearing the engagement ring or wedding band as a symbol of commitment for the rest of your married life, do go for replicas. You cannot wear something expensive and of immense personal value all the time, and not expect to lose it. It can get stolen, it can fall off, the stone could become loose, the band can start losing colour, anything can happen. So, get a simple set of bands to represent both. If you lose this, you can always buy another set of simple bands.

• Wooden Ring

For those who do not want to conform to the “diamond is forever” business strategy, those who do not want to buy diamond just because it is the usual thing to do, there are many other options which will make you feel closer to nature. Wood is one such example. If you get the wooden bands covered with a waterproof and scratchproof coat you can wear it anytime anywhere. If you don’t think wooden rings are a thing, check out the collection of wooden engagement ring patterns and you will fall in love.

• Sneaky Measure

Sometimes engagements are public declarations only. But sometimes the real engagement happens long before people find out. If you are the type of couple who like to share intimate moments just between you two, you can surprise her or him with the engagement ring. To make sure you are getting the right size, tie a string around your partner’s finger while she is sleeping, put a mark on it, and take it off. This will mark the size of the ring. Ladies, if you know you are with someone who is as interested in marrying you as you are in marrying him, you can surprise him too.

These engagement ring ideas above will definitely help you to avoid common engagement ring mistakes like getting the wrong size or getting the wrong design for a male or female. The rest is your choice totally. We recommend going for a little bit of personalisation. Either self-designed or engraved engagement rings or wedding bands are perfect.

• Lace

Lace looks dainty on any fabric. The bride could be wearing a lacy veil or the chair of the bride and groom, or that of the guests could have lacy borders. A wedding is where one gets to flaunt creativity. Tell the decorators about your lace idea and incorporate it in the chairs.

• Wreath

Putting a floral or leafy wreath in the centre behind the chair, or on the side, makes the chair appear brighter at once. If sticking the wreath behind the chair has become too common an idea, let it hang a little sideways. This wedding chair decoration idea is hassle-free. It is not too creative or unique but simple and quick.

• Mason jar vases

Hang a little plant in a pretty mason jar from each chair. You can have a single coloured sapling for all of the chairs or different colours for different chairs. For the bride and groom’s chairs, make sure you have some perfectly red blossoms. If you are going for a Christian wedding theme, it can be white or peach.

• Pearls

Weddings aren’t just about the fun and frolic. To many, a wedding is an opportunity to flaunt their status symbol. If you are one of these people, leave no stone unturned. Use the wedding chairs to flaunt your riches too. Decorate them with a string of pearl each, or with a band of pearls. If you do not want to invest in too many pearls, take a mason jar and fill it up with flowers and leaves and leave a few genuine pearls at the bottom of the jar. This will make a pretty memorable return gift. If you just want to be creative with pearls but do not want to waste precious money on every detail of the wedding, go for real pearls with the decoration of the wedding chairs for bride and groom. The fake ones are to be left for the rest of the chairs. Make them colourful or arrange them in different shapes of strings. Do not try to pretend they are fake. They are just pearly decorations.

• Drapes

Taking the easy way. Satin drapes are cheap and simple decoration items. These props are overused in weddings. They look so boring. But, if you can be creative and choose the right knots and a good colour combination, they can brighten up the entire wedding hall. You can tie the drapes around the chairs in the form of a bow, or make snake-like patters, or cover the entire chair up and put some sequins on it. You can make the most ordinary chair look beautiful with drapes. The bride and groom’s chairs should be covered in velvet while the rest can be covered in satin.

• Flowers

No wreaths, no mason jars, no mini vases, just flowers. Arrange some assorted flowers to adorn the wedding chairs. Make sure that the colours of the flowers are bright and in clear contradiction to that of the chair so that the decoration is clearly visible. If the chairs are made of wood and bear the classic wooden texture, white lilies or a single light coloured orchid can be a very beautiful idea. If the chair is white, red roses are the way to go. Go bonkers with the bride and groom’s chairs. They are supposed to be entirely covered in decoration. Put as many flowers you want. Make sure they aren’t right on the seat or the handles though.

• Bride and Groom Tags

The bride and groom’s chairs can have funky ‘Mr. and Mrs’ or ‘Hubby and Wifey’ tags. They can also be decorated with something like the bride and the groom’s outfits. The groom’s chair can be made to wear a custom-made coat or pagdi. The bride’s chair can have a high rise veil. This way when the bride and groom actually sit in their chairs, they will look more prominent.

• Bouquet

A beautiful bouquet of flower placed in every seat with a personalised note for each guest, if the seating is arranged according to a seating chart, is a very meticulous wedding décor idea. A little card from the bouquet can confirm the seat for each guest. Leave a little vase tied to the back of the chair for the guests to put the bouquet in. Decorate the bride and groom’s chairs with multiple bouquets forming an arch behind the chair. This will make amazing wedding chair images.

• Vineyard

For an outdoor wedding, something more natural is what is required than carefully arranged bouquets. A very meticulously grown and put together vineyard that looks like it is stretching from one end of the chair to the other is a perfect natural decoration. The plants are real but they are creepers and do not add much to the weight of the chair. It is surprisingly beautiful.

• Fabric Braids

You can make braids out of drapes and put them in different shapes to give volume to the wedding chairs. Make use of the wooden or plastic bars at the back of the chair. Do not use a fully covered back or a back with minute gaps. Use one with just some bars so that you can play along with the drapes and braids any way you want.

• Ribbons

Tie the drapes in a ribbon or tie just a satin ribbon to the back of each chair. This isn’t a very new idea again, but the idea is simple and quick. You can make it unique by using three or five colours for the ribbons and using them at regular intervals to form a pattern that will be visible in the wedding chair images taken from the balcony.

• Origami

Hang different shapes of origami from the chairs. This is simple, cute, and affordable. Also, use colourful paper to make things bright.

These wedding chair decoration ideas will surely be helpful. You can add other elements like balloons too, but it makes the air stuffy. You could use battery powered lamps with lampshades handing from each chair but it would be dangerous. So, the ones mentioned are indeed the best options possible for you for making your wedding planning a complete hit.
