You can carry a lot of things but the essentials are so crucial that your honeymoon might get ruined without them. So, here is a honeymoon packing list for you to help you get started with the things you’d like to pack into your travel bags.

1. Travel Tickets and Hotel Reservation Receipts

This is the last thing you should check when you leave for any trip. The most important thing for the last policy will help you make sure you have taken everything else first. Also, you need to check if you took these. So a last minute call is always recommended.

Some tickets and reservations are now made online and don’t require a softcopy. If that is the case, save the relevant pictures on your Cloud storage so that if you lose the phone, unfortunately, you can still check into your hotel.

1. Credit and ATM Cards

Nobody carries all cash anymore. It is inconvenient and unsafe. So, do not forget to carry your ATM card or credit card. Carry two functional cards. It can be one of yours and one of your partner’s, or both yours.

You just need to make sure that they are linked to banks which individually have enough balance to pull off the expenses of the entire vacation. One of your cards might stop working for some reason, or get lost. You do not want that to ruin your entire honeymoon.

1. Identification

You must carry your identification. These rules are stricter than ever. You need to carry both your IDs. Also, get photocopies done to submit at the hotel. Keep photocopies of the receipts and travel tickets too. Keep all the originals deep inside the travel bags and use just the photocopies unless asked.

1. Important Phone numbers

Nobody remembers phone numbers by heart anymore. You won’t even consider this as one of the most important things to carry for honeymoon. But this is important. You need to keep the important contacts, like your immediate family, the hotel, your family doctor, your gynaecologist, and whoever you would like to call from your honeymoon, in hard copy. You need to note these numbers down in a good old physical phone diary and keep it safely away with your original IDs just in case of an emergency.

1. Outfits for Special Occasions

Enough of any travel essentials. Let’s get to some honeymoon essentials. You need to carry flattering outfits for the beach, for multiple romantic dinners, for a cruise, whatever you are going for.

Carry pretty dresses and cool shirts. Both of you will want to look your best.

1. Lingerie

Now it’s talking. Who goes for a honeymoon without something raunchy in their backpack? Carry the lingerie you always wanted to see yourself in, surprise him. Carry the lingerie you always wanted to see her in, and surprise her. Carry some nice flattering boxers because why should she be the only one in sexy underwear?

1. Shoes for the Occasion

Along with the outfits, you need appropriate shoes. You need sports shoes for a hike, beach sandals for walks at beaches. You need pretty shoes for dinners. A honeymoon is something you want to be dressed well for. So, let the bags get heavy but do not miss out anything that you will wish you had brought along.

1. First aid and Medicines

Back to some generic essentials, you just cannot forget first aid and medicines. First aid like pain relief sprays, bandages, gels for soothing minor burns, antiseptic creams for insect bites, band-aids, these are just the bare essentials.

Carry medicines for stomach infection, fever, cold, gastric, nausea, pain, balms for headaches, and whatever you think you might need. Where you go you might not find the exact medicines you need.

1. Birth control

This is an element of the highest order of importance. We did not club it in with medicines because this needs to be stressed on. Carry enough birth control and various forms of it. Make sure you don’t run out of birth control.

Also, do not carry just one form of contraceptives. Carry emergency contraceptive pills as well. Birth control will be your top priority. Unless, of course, you are trying to get pregnant already. But let’s face it. Every couple wants a few years to themselves.

1. Camera

The camera is a honeymoon packing list essential that you need not carry to every random trip. The camera is to capture the beautiful sceneries when you go sightseeing. Or, you know, you could get your own ideas. Whatever the purpose maybe, carry a good camera.

If you don’t have a DSLR, make sure you have at least a digital camera. It is your honeymoon. Don’t just rely on your phone cameras. You will want to take some honeymoon photographs for the albums. And maybe some more photographs just for the two of you. Keep a dedicated camera. Never forget chargers and batteries.

1. Cosmetics

On a honeymoon, you will want to carry more than just sunscreen and deodorant. You will want to look your best for your new beau. This whole excitement about looking perfect will soon fade out.

But while it’s still there, cater to it. Of course, do not overdo the makeup or wear elaborate makeup throughout the day but do carry professional makeup brands which suit you and your skin. You are on a honeymoon, not in an Ekta Kapoor TV soap.

1. Books

Reading together forms bonds closer than ever. Carry two books. One that you recommended to your partner, and the other that your partner recommended for you. When you want to stay indoors, there shouldn’t be just one thing you want to do together. Strengthen your bond by reading together, reading what your partner had wanted you to read since forever.

1. Headphones

This is such an everyday item that while packing for one of those most romantic honeymoon places in India or abroad you might forget about it. You need to carry at least two sets of headphones, or in ear earphones, whichever you prefer, for some alone time if you want. Say, your partner falls asleep on the journey, what do you resort to? Your headphones, music player, and your book.

1. Planners

You need to get an itinerary along if you are the heist kind of couple. If you have many places to be and numerous things to see, chalk it out and make a fair copy on the planner.

This isn’t the only purpose of the planner. It is fun to plan household things and annual activities together. Where you want to go next, what changes you want to bring in your apartment, even how to manage finances together, all make for warm and fuzzy pillow talk.

1. Journal

Carry a journal each for you to write down your personal feelings into them. Do not read each other’s journals. But make it a point to note down important moments, and write something at the end of the day. You will be glad to add this to your honeymoon checklist.

Years from now, you might want to read what you had written in your honeymoon journal. You can read each other’s journal then. You will be surprised by the different perspectives both of you had on some of the same things. If your marriage is ever in trouble, or getting all boring and unromantic, this journal will send you back to the honeymoon phase.

These were just the most important things to carry to your honeymoon. Let us know what we are missing. There might be many weird things you cannot live without. The honeymoon is the time to get introduced to yet undiscovered quirks of your partner.

You can of course pack more things, things that aren’t mentioned in this checklist. But you cannot skip a single one on the list. Happy honeymooning!

Ahh! the glorious summer is finally here! And so let’s get ready to say to goodbye to those shorter evenings, dark skies, gloomy moods, lack of sunshine and that stack of blankets at bedtime. Welcome, everything that is full of life as summer arrives. Those birds chirping at the balcony and the cool breeze that instantly lifts up our spirits along with occasional dips in those pools of water, summer does look good and glorified. When we talk of summer weddings, marriage halls in Chennai and other tropical destinations, thanks to warm weather, flowers in bloom, and the ability to use even bright colours with a careless attitude are perfect venues to hold ceremonies.

When we talk of colours for summer wedding, there’s the bright pops of bubblegum and sweet taffy or ocean hues like Caribbean blue and aqua which come to mind.  Simply look to the rainbow of bright, bold hues around you to create the perfect colour palette for your summertime nuptials.

Let’s look at some good old reasons first that should be the criteria for choosing the best summer colour wedding combinations:

Wedding Venue

• Go for bolder colours that brighten things up if you are having a reception in a grand ballroom during the evening.
• If the venue is somewhere outdoors with an open field, use bright and happy colours.
• Select neutral shades if you think the venue already has too many bright coloured flowers. This would help both the things to add their own charm to the venue.
• Go for colours like tan, black, custom gold or sky blue if you settle for destination wedding in Goa at an exotic location.

Your Favourite Stuff

Choose your favourite colour or simply choose a colour theme which is based on things that you like the most! If you like roses, then a wonderful colour palette can be woven around whites and peach, and red and whites as well. You could also have those flowers arranged specially to add that dreamy touch to the best day of your life!

The Mood Matters

Your chosen wedding theme can give you great ideas based on the mood you want to create and the bond that you and your beloved share. Do you and your significant other, wish to convey an elegant, formal, tone or would you rather go for a whimsical, playful one? Other moods include romantic, beach, sophisticated, vintage and rustic. It’s a good way to design the theme and the moods that you want to create, let your imagination run wild. There’s no dearth of the options that you can explore!

Choose the best Colour combination for your summer wedding.

• Pale Lilac and Sea Blue

Weddings with a classic feel often have a softer colour scheme and a look which is classified by simplicity and elegance. Using velvet and pale lilac as your purple mainstays, sprinkle in blue frosting and deep sea as complements for a nice colour tone for your summer wedding.

Let your guests fall in love with those immaculate settings on the dessert table, the flowyness of the colour in your dresses or those sheer curtains that will provide a comforting shade to your set-up.

• Sage Green, Ivory and Light Grey

This moody, yet marvellous colour combo is calming, fresh, and inspired by nature and a wonderful choice if you are taking vows in the summers. Being a romantic neutral that adds a bit of life to this otherwise neutral palette, sage green adds a certain charm. The impeccable shades of green, simple ivory and grey add so much warmth and peace to this kind of wedding decor. This organic colour palette is both natural and fresh; it is gentle and unassuming and will make you fall in love all over again!

• Plain Peach

If you love pastels and love the undisputed elegance that comes with it, then you shouldn’t give this combination a miss! Pairing beautifully with nearly any soft spring hue, including periwinkle, peach is trending modern colour that’s never out of fashion.

This cool hue is certainly a spring favourite too— an invigorating shade that plays nicely with nearly any spring pastel. Exquisite, relaxing, and just pretty is what this entire combination will add to your wedding day. With this dose of sugary sweetness, it’s almost like a sweet little thing that has fallen into your lap!

• Orange and Yellow

Nothing says summer like a fresh, juicy citrus fruit, you agree, don’t you? To evoke images of these timeless icons of summer, make sure you dress up in tart and tangy hues, including tangerine, orange and yellow at your summer wedding. Since orange can be less than flattering on some, select lean or sunny yellow if you are wanting to dress up your family members too in this colour tone. Just make sure you don’t overdo this colour combination anywhere. Let an all-white backdrop provide a neutral base, with accents of bright blooms doing the heavy lifting in rest of the wedding theme and ideas. You can also add a pop of real interest here –offer an interesting signature cocktail and woah! You would never want your wedding day to get over!

• Grey and Yellow

Very few know the beauty of this colour palette. Grey and yellow make for a great pair and marry each other so perfectly. It is actually a timeless colour combo suitable for any particular season and mostly for summers. You can choose whichever shades of these two pretty colours and well, you may end up with something contrasting or very tender combos. It is elegant and simple – and perhaps conveying every portrait of your how summer wedding should look like.

• Soft Peach and Mint

This is a combination that can never really be a fade. Haven’t we seen so many brides enjoying the beauty of these two colours be it in their wedding dress or the set-up at the wedding? Well yes, this is another timeless colour scheme that keeps being extremely popular.

Soft peach pink and refreshing mint is a great pair that matches perfectly, and rocking them in summer is amazing and you will never really stop loving it. You can also go for gold touches here and there – and a beautiful royal look is what you will achieve.

• Rose Pink, White and Sage Green

Sage green is such a favourite; it portrays sophistication and simplicity so beautifully. Weaving white and a pretty rose with sage green keeps the look fresh and slightly feminine; it’s actually interesting to work around these two tones.  And for a marvellous modern spin, gold is easily intertwined into another hot wedding trend: geometric décor, isn’t it? One of the best colours for summer wedding, we must say!

• Lime and Light Orange

Lime and everything citrusy instantly picks up our moods, isn’t it? Well, this delightful combo of lime and light orange is bound to make your wedding day replete with a lot of customary good cheers and merry behaviours blushing throughout.

Lime adds a flash of energy this summer and has a bright and cheery feel to it! Both of these colours balance each other well, making it a sophisticated and fun colour palette for your summer wedding.

• Bold Fuchsia and Aqua

Island-inspired brights like bold fuchsia and ocean-inspired aqua against a backdrop of neutral sand work well if you want to create a tropical look for your wedding day. Keep up with the beach theme and opt for a shocking pink shade that’s flattering on most and easy to wear again. Let the rest of the decor speak out in hot pinks and aqua blues. Have your curtains and gazebos bring out the beauty of these two colours against the summer sky. Hot pink lilies, white orchids and aqua gerbera daisies, add grace and a lovely feel to bring out the divine beauty of the decor. What’s more? Well, offer some coconut infused cocktails for that perfect blend!

• Gold and Dusted Blue

If you’re looking for a colour combination that feels elegant and sophisticated, then here is one to consider. Gold gives the rich, warm feel while adding in the ever-popular metallic tone.

But rather than pairing it with the expected purple or silver, this combination calls for a muted, almost dusty blue tone. It stands in stark contrast to the shiny gold, which is the point! Your event will look effortlessly elegant with this colour palette.

• Blush and Marsala (red-brown tone)

The beauty of these two colours will make you feel like a queen on that summer wedding of yours. Your groom too would bask in the glory of these colours as the two of you replicate this in your wedding dresses and take it throughout your wedding decor. This is a great colour scheme for late summer to fall weddings because it features the sweetness of the summer with blush and the bold beauty of the fall with marsala, a popular colour these days, you are surely going to be mesmerised by the grace of this colour palette.  Add touches of gold to make it stand out even more!

Go with the theme that you relate to the most and incorporate the colours into each aspect of your day, leave no stone unturned. There’s no time like summer for a little bit of creativity and a whole lot of colour.So embrace one of these nice, unique colour schemes for your warm weather vows!

A very common fashion question is less about fashion and more about what takes the brunt of it. Women all over the world want to find out how to wear high heels without pain. Yes, you can have your cake and eat it too. You need to follow some expert tips to make sure your feet don’t pain as much when you wear heels in wedding reception or any other function. Here are some tricks to help you with that.

Planning Wedding any time soon?
Then, Give us a call
08750287502   

1. Colour Tricks

You need some tricks like camouflaging the colours. Have a transparent or nude bottom for a classier look. But go easy on the heel so that there is enough room for comfort. This colour trick works well with the shoes for any house party or cocktail party.

1. Shoe Size

You need the perfect shoe size. Without the perfect shoe size, your walking will be all wrong and you will be putting a lot of pressure on your feet while walking.In fact, if it is too lose you could even fall down. If it is too tight, you might end up curling your toes and fall or break your nails anyway.

1. Sole Width

The sole needs to be a thick one. Do not go for a dainty pair of shoes just because it looks more feminine. Thin soles won’t even help the shoe last longer. With a padded sole, your feet will get some support.

1. Heel Surface Area

If you have trouble wearing heels, go for block heels and wedges first. Do not go for stilettos. The wider the heel, the more the support. You need some support on your ankle to balance out of the weight.

1. Foot Type

If you have very narrow and slender feet maybe high heels isn’t an option for every day. If you have short stubby feet, you might wear out your platforms too soon. You need to complement your shoe shape and sole width with the shape of your feet to avoid pain from a weird gait.

1. Deodorant for Chafing

Use some deodorant under the parts of the strap or over the sole where it hurts. This way you can avoid chafing and comfortably slide your feet in and out of the shoes.

1. Straps and Buckles for support

Straps and buckles don’t make your heels look bad. If you are looking for fashionable shoes, you can find a design with multiple straps and back support and good toe support.

Even high heels come in supportive designs. If you aren’t wearing them because they look “juvenile”, you are being juvenile. All buckled shoes aren’t school shoes.

1. Sole Maintenance

The soles of your shoes need to be well maintained. With use, they start to wear off. If you do not take note, you will feel pain in the ankles and at the centre of your feet. You will think you do not wear heels that well anymore. Or you might even feel you are gaining weight because you feel your feet are taking more pressure than when you initially used to wear these shoes. But the truth simply is, the sole needs another layer.

1. Stretch Out

You must stretch out your shoes. This is also called breaking in. This is the good kind of breaking in. You cannot wear a new pair of shoes fresh out of the box and expect yourself to pull off an entire day in them with grace. This is not limited to heels. Any pair of shoes will need some stretching out to fit your feet perfectly. This is not limited to pavement purchases either. Even the finest leather needs some stretching out.

1. Tape your Toes

Tape together the two toes beside the little toe. This keeps the nerves from the tension that they face when you walk in high heels. It forces your feet into a scientific posture. So, tape them together with transparent tape. If you are wearing peep toes, do this anyway.People who notice will be people who know why this trick is done, and they will be kind. The others won’t even notice. If you want to prevent this from becoming a faux passé, wear shoes with covered toes. Or, you need to make sure the opening of the peep toes is very narrow, just enough to fit on your toes through. This way all the toes will be close together anyway.

1. Frozen Water

If you don’t have enough time to stretch out your new pair of heels, don’t worry. If you ask us “how to wear heels without pain” even when you bought the heels right then, we will not turn you down. Here’s the hack. Put some water in a ziplock, not all the way because the water will expand. Place the bags inside the shoes. Put the shoes in the freezer. Make sure both the shoes are filled in equally so that they expand equally. Otherwise, you will have two differently sized shoes. That would be a problem big enough to repeat the entire process. If you don’t get the quantity right the first time, it becomes very difficult to get it right the second time. So, a fail with this trick might cost you your shoes’ life.

1. Leather Soles

If you are an animal rights activist you will not like this. But leather soles for heels is the best material, thinking of the feet of the human wearing them. Leather lasts long and the elasticity makes it taut. Your feet will be comfortable in well shaped leather soles.

As professional bridal makeup is important for a wedding likewise, a well fitted shoes and comfortable heels are an important part of the bridal comfort. Even if you do not buy anything in leather, when you buy high heels, please look for original soles. If you want to give up wearing heels at all because of this, that is okay too. But if you are wearing high heels and do not want any lasting pain for your feet, you have to go for leather.

1. In Sole Cushions

Silicone gel sole inserts are used to provide more support to the feet. Use these for sure. If you are opposed to leather or have accidentally bought a pair of high heels with uncomfortable soles, this is a must. If you have bought the perfect shoes, even then these are recommended. Initially, it might feel a little weird to wear, but very soon, the comfort will make you warm up to the trick. With these silicone cushions, you can walk in your high heels as long as you want.

1. Posture

The posture of the body is very important when you wear high heels. You need to walk straight and land on your toes every time. You need to make sure your feet aren’t too far apart or too close like in the ramp walk. You need to make sure your spine is straight. Bending a little forward while trying to balance heels isn’t just an opportunity for people to roast you.

It puts pressure on your spine. Regular use of heels and such wrong gait will get your spine in trouble. If you are not walking right in your heels, your feet and ankles will be joined by your lower back and your knees to scream in pain.

1. Know your Day

High heels aren’t for everyday use. You will never find high heels mandatory even in the job of an air hostess. High heels aren’t scientific. You should keep their use limited to a few days a month and a few hours a day. Also, if you have a lot of running about to do, go for smaller heels.

1. Massage and Salts

This is going to be your favourite solution on the list. You need to make sure you soak your feet in some warm water with rejuvenating bath salts to ease off the temporary discomfort you felt throughout the day, in the high heels. If you wear high heels every day, or even smaller heels that make your feet ache, go for a foot massage session once in two weeks, or at least once a month.

Keep these foot massage and foot bath salt routines limited to days you feel some pain. If you get too used to this comfort, you won’t find it effective when really in need. But do not ignore the pain for way too long. If these natural remedies don’t work, pause wearing the heels and see an orthopaedic, or see any massage therapist or doctor help you out.

1. Exercises

Do some foot exercises. Maybe even the simple ones were given to old people for their arthritis. These exercises will help your nerves get more flexible and take the next heel day attack better prepared. Also, your muscles are all awake and ready to take you places.

Many women still don’t know how to wear heels right. It is okay to ask. In fact, it is important to ask. Comfort comes first. So remember that when you are choosing a pair of shoes. When you think you found one (or ten, whatever your requirement is), that is pretty as well as more or less comfortable, pick it.

1. Jacket Sherwani

Sherwani with a jacket is also a popular choice among today’s men. The jacket could be a long or a short one and may or may not have buttons. These jackets form a different part in a sherwani that might have a same colour to that of dhoti, pant or churidar to give a classic look of its own. These jackets are full sleeved, half sleeved or sleeveless that could be worn in a fusion style with any other design.

1. Mughal Style Sherwani

Derived from the Mughal period, the Mughal style Sherwani for men is definitely a royal choice, if you are looking for one. With a flare of Anarkali, it has Kamarband or cummerbund made with pearls or any other jewel to bring out the physique. The groom can wear a neckpiece as well to adorn his look.

1. Sherwani with Patiala

A truly voguish look, this Sherwani with Patiala Salwar is one of a kind. One of the trendiest in today’s wedding dresses, grooms find it to be quite comfortable than other types because of the loose bottom fitting.

1. Anarkali Sherwani

Quite an uncommon type, the Anarkali Sherwani has a frock style beneath the jacket. The jacket and the Anarkali fabric are of distinct variety where one is complementary to the other.

This is generally seen to be worn with a churidar or loose pant as it has a flare in the upper portion.

1. Printed Sherwani

Not everything is about embroidery, silks and brocade. While looking for some unique piece, a printed sherwani is also a favourite because of its rich colours and a mixed style. Moreover, a high-quality fabric is used in making printed sherwanis to bring out the design in them.

Though there are different styles to look for, you cannot ignore the fact that fabric plays an equally major part in elevating the look of a Sherwani. If you are the groom-to-be then this is just the perfect guide to help you out in choosing the right fabric for your Sherwani.

• Banarasi Silk: The same type of fabric that is also used in Sarees, Sherwanis are also a great success when tailored with silk. The silk could be embroidered with motifs or any other floral pattern that goes well with the colour of fabric beneath it.
• Velvet: This is a neutral fabric that could be used in jackets, stoles, or the Sherwani body itself. For a winter wedding, velvets would be an intelligent choice for an outdoor celebration of yours to ward off the chill. This seems to be a good choice when you are wearing a jacket Sherwani made of velvet.
• Leather Pajamas: Might be unknown to you, the Sherwanis today are paired up with a black leather churidar pyjama for a better look. What more? Pair them up with a golden embroidered Sherwani and you would create a look that everyone would be in awe of.
• Brocade Sherwani: Brocade itself is a richly decorated fabric where the design is woven over silks on golden or silver threads mostly. The elaborate ornamental design on the fabric is such handsomely sewn that you need not wear any accessory if you are not feeling up to it.
• Jute Sherwani: Jutes are a vintage fabric when you don’t want some extravagant design but still long for a clean-cut look. Then Jute Sherwanis are just what you are looking for. With subtle yet creative designs, they will be your choice at once.

Now go along with any of the styles or any fabric for your wedding or pair it up with your bride-to-be to have a picture perfect moment in front of your guests.

1. Multicultural Customs

The best thing about Indian weddings is that you cannot think of just one kind of wedding when you hear about a big Indian wedding.

Of course, the tendency would be to think about the weddings you have witnessed, and they are mostly similar in one part of the country. But you won’t be technically correct to think of just a Punjabi wedding or a Bengali weddingwhen you hear “Indian wedding”.

1. Every State has a Tradition

There are many common factors about Indian weddings. The seven circles around the holy fire, the vermillion, the haldi before the wedding, there are many rituals that are similar to most Indians. But each culture has its own little specifications that make the customs so different. There are some customs that are so typical to the cultures.

1. Modern Indian Wedding has a Broader Perspective

All these differences together make Indian weddings so interesting. With an increase in the number of interstate marriages, actually more like, inter-culture marriages, the modern Indian wedding is customised to fit the significant rituals of both cultures, giving a new twist to Indian weddings

Indian weddings are extravagant. People here love splurging on weddings. The rich splurge like nobody’s business, and the middle-class splurge like rich people. The wedding attires, jewellery, food, venue, band party, all scream big fat Indian wedding.

1. Rich Weddings Cost Crores in the Name of Pomp

Of course, most weddings are not 100 crore deals. The sons and daughters or multimillionaire business tycoons wear bridal wear and jewellery worth 100 crores. Stinking rich Indian weddings cost over 400 crores. But we do not need to look at those weddings to back our claims about the regular pomp at Indian weddings.

1. Regular Weddings are filled with Brightness and Cheers

India is known for the bright eastern colours, the crowd, the chaotic charm, and the enthusiastic people. An Indian wedding is the best example of all this.

Indian weddings are all about how many colours you can add to the drapes in the wedding decoration. Or how much jewellery and flowers you can deck up the bride with. Indians like being extra at weddings.

1. Spread over Many Days

Unlike other countries, Indian weddings are not quiet, or monochromatic. Indian wedding traditions and rituals start with an official engagement and end at the wedding reception from the groom’s house. Throughout this phase, the guests love partying and dancing. They shower the bride and groom with riches and blessings. This isn’t just a part of the rituals. These blessings come from the hearts of these people.

1. Be Wise in Planning

If you want to match up to the excitement of your guests, plan a grand wedding. You do not have to go beyond a reasonably fair budget to pull off a big Indian wedding. You just need to be enthusiastic about every step of it.

1. Add zest and fun

Make sure your haldi, sagaai, or mehndi functions do not involve just the rituals and food, and goodbyes. Incorporate fun games to make the families bond. Dance to peppy Bollywood and Punjabi songs to liven up the place. Enjoy yourselves like never before.

Make sure the bridal makeup is on point. Indian weddings aren’t the place to go minimalistic. So, stop at nothing.

1. The significance of the Indian Bride

The guests at an Indian wedding are more decked up than brides in the West. The striking thing is, all this is heartwarming instead of annoying. All the dancing and excitement rubs off on even the quiet and peaceful people. All the makeup makes the bride look gorgeous instead of funny. Nobody but an Indian bride can pull off such pompous appearance with grace.

1. Never Compromise on Food

Indian wedding makeup, Indian clothes, the Indian way of having fun, Indian wedding rituals, we love all of it. Oh, Indian food! The most important thing of all. Splurge on the food plate rates. A wedding is a once in a lifetime event. You don’t want to spend the rest of your life wondering if people think you had been a miser. Save for your, or your child’s wedding well beforehand so that you can afford the wedding you deserve to host.

1. Add More Dhamaka

Enter the wedding scene on a chopper, or on elephants. Wear diamond studded sarpanch or veil. Make all the exotic dishes, both vegan and all meat. Go for the most dramatic eye makeup, the most elaborate jewellery, and the best possible wedding dress ever. Have dance performances ready for the entry. Have your entire family dance. Go for a destination wedding abroad, or better still, in India. Go for an Udaipur or Goa wedding. Go to the Andaman Islands for your dream wedding. Have a Rajasthani or Kashmiri themed wedding, or an Italian theme.

1. Let Go and Be Happy

Whatever you do, make sure you are hosting a grand wedding. Big fat Indian wedding brides do not cry at their wedding, they make a royal appearance, stunning everybody, and the rest of the evening is hers. A big fat Indian wedding groom is royalty worthy of that sassy Indian bride, a hunk himself. On this day, the bride and the groom isn’t just each other’s princess and hero. They are the Queen and the King of the event. So behave like that. Don’t tone down your sass, don’t control your smiles. You want to dance, you dance. You want to sit there and watch the entertainment, you do that.

1. Have No Regrets

Whatever you do, make sure you don’t look at your wedding album reminiscing, and think you could have done it better. You go all in and pull off a great wedding, big and fat enough to leave no room for doubts or regrets.

A wedding is just once in a lifetime affair…..Make sure you have the best one! We wish just one thing………a happily ever after, always!

The professional planners also need to give you suggestions for unique wedding decorations. Also, if your plans are impractical in parts, the planners should help you find a similar alternative, or work a way around the technical impossibilities.

• Balloon Walls

It takes a lot of money to decorate every wall with flowers. The idea is clichéd as well. Giant white balloons, on the other hand, make a very good background for the wedding photographs.

Leave some gaps at regular intervals to put colourful flowers in them to balance out the white.

• Drapes

Colourful or white drapes both work. Cover light sources with translucent yellow or orange drapes. Put white drapes on the walls before sticking the balloons on. White brightens up the place and colourful satin drapes work as good lampshades, making everywhere the light touches, more colourful.

• Lampshade Centre Pieces

You should get real lampshades as centre pieces for wedding seating tables.  Have multicoloured lampshades or single coloured lampshades of different colours at different tables, your choice.

If you prefer a more symmetrical look, go for the same colour and type of lampshades for all the tables.

• Mandap Decoration

The mandap has to have both, drapes and flowers. But make sure the flowers don’t get lost in the drapes. Sometimes people make mandap drapes out of various colours of drapes and add whatever flower strings they get. Nothing can look tackier than that. You need to stick to a maximum of two colours for the drapes.

You can match the colours with the latest bridal dresses, or contrast it. You can go for lighter shades like white and yellow or white and peach for daytime under the sky weddings. For the night, go for the warmer tones like red, purple, and orange. Match the flowers with the colours of the drapes and hang them from strings evenly all across the outside of the drapes.

• Piñata

This is the most uncommon of all wedding arrangements. A piñata is for birthdays. But a wedding is the birth of a wife and a husband. It is the beginning of a new life for the bride and the groom. Put all the best wishes from the guests, especially the close ones, and put it inside the piñata. Make it a heart-shaped piñata if you want to maintain symmetry for the occasion. Let the bride and the groom together break it, to find the notes. Alternately, you can have two piñatas, one for the groom and one for the bride, and have their respective friends and relatives write their best wishes for each of them.

• Garden arch

The mandap is there. If there is a garden or outdoor wedding, the mandap needs to be in the garden. Or if there is a lush green open space but the mandap is indoor anyway, put arches made of leaves on the garden. Fix them well into the floor so that some rain and storm cannot harm the setup.

These arches can be made broader and wider so that you can put chairs in their shade and people can sit in the shade. If you have a big space, keep these arrangements at a good distance from each other. You need to be able to arrange for chairs and these arches for at least 40 percent of the guests.

• Plants

Flowers cost a lot and they look too clichéd for weddings. Also, you need to get a lot of flowers on the very day of the wedding. Too much flowers slow down the implementation of ideas of wedding decorations process. Replace most of the flowers with little green tubs of plants. You can get this done even the night before the wedding. All you need to make sure the next morning is that they are sprayed with water to keep looking fresh. The cost and the hassle are reduced tenfold with green leaves and plants. Also, the place smells so much better and feels so fresh because of the plants.

• Flowers

No matter what was said in the above statement about getting more green plants, you do need flowers. Flower decorations for wedding is essential. To complement the green on the plants, get some white flowers. Lilies, tulips, orchids, jasmine bunches, all of these flowers are beautiful.

• Lighting

If the lighting is off, everything gets ruined. You need enough light for people to see where they are walking. You need less enough light to make the other decorations more visible. You need lights inside and outside the area. The building needs good lighting on its outer walls. Once again, multi-coloured fairy lights are just as tacky as multicoloured mandap drapes.

Stick to some signature colour combinations like blue and white, red and yellow, just yellow, or to reduce the cost of lighting, use as many fairy light strings as you can. But do use enough brighter lights to actually make the wedding dinner look good. The dinner tables must have enough lighting. Make sure all the light sources are either covered by translucent lamp shades or drapes.

These were 9 comprehensive ideas for Indian wedding arrangements. They are all pocket friendly and easy to do. Also, you can have most of it set up a night before. Add to these ideas, or customise them as you please.

The modern Indian wedding has warmed up to a lot of changes in the Indian wedding venues ,traditions and rituals. The rituals all remain but are customised. For example, many people don’t do kanyadaan anymore, to respect the bride as a person and not as a gift to be given away. However, the wedding garlands is a tradition that remains as it is. Or is that so?

Fun Garlands Exchange

Exchanging of the Jaimala or Varmala as some call it, is a tradition that nobody has a problem with. But to be honest, it is quite a boring ritual. People don’t mind standing by and getting it done with, but nobody has fun.

Of course, it is a serious ritual, with a spiritual significance. But who cares about that as long as the pandit is saying all his chants right and the bride and groom are following him right? If you can make it fun, then why not?

The only fun garlands exchange game is the bride and the groom dodging the other one when they try to put the garland around their neck. In some traditions, the respective families hold up the bride and the groom as high as possible to make their own candidates taller than the other person.

But these are lame and clichéd little games. How about making the garlands fun instead? Some traditions need the wedding garlands exchanged thrice. Some, just once. We cannot make variations to these rules. They are rituals that should stay the way they are.

But we can make the garlands fun so that we do not have to think about anything else or risk disrupting a traditional ritual and offending the elders while trying to have some innocent fun.

Fun Varmala Ideas

Now, the fun ideas can range from anything between harmless fashionable varmala designs for wedding, to pranks with them. Here are all the ideas we can think of. You can add to the list with the help of your creatively mischievous mind, and your friends and cousins.

• Matching Garlands

Usually, wedding garlands are all orange, made of marigold, or all red, made of roses, depending upon the traditional practices of the family. They often have some white flowers in them with the orange and red. What if you ditched the cliché and got the garland made out of flowers of the colour that your partner is wearing?

Say the bride is wearing a mauve bridal suit as one of her latest bridal wedding dresses, get the groom’s garland made of liatris and tulips. If the groom is wearing white and maroon, get the bride’s garland made of white lilies and dark red roses. It is crucial that the garlands should match the partner’s outfit because it will get lost in the camouflage if it matches their own outfit.

• Designer Garlands

Modern Indian wedding garlands are made to look much better and bigger than mere common flower garlands. Fake flowers are used. Velvet and silk are used. You will find these garlands at any big shop. You might need to do some searching. Sometimes garlands come in pairs, and sometimes in unique single pieces. Go pick two identical designer garlands or two very different ones. Whatever you choose, make sure they both have a fair amount of real flowers though.

• Heavy Garlands

It’s one thing to make a garland look big and poofy, and totally another thing to actually make it heavy. The first kind is a simple attempt at making the garland look unique. It is still fluffy and innocently made only of flowers, real and fake. But the second one is a sneaky prank that you need to pull off well.

Whoever you pull the prank on, needs to be conditioned to thinking that finding the wedding garland too heavy is a bad omen. The ritual of exchanging wedding garlands is done to see if the two people are ready for the burden of marriage. If they find it too heavy to carry or complain about it, they are not ready for marriage. Then comes the garland with some tiny little iron balls hidden in the flowers.

The person putting the garland on the partner to be pranked needs to pretend like it is not heavy to them. Once it lands on the target, their job is over. Watch your partner’s smiles turn fake and head starting to bend. He or she cannot even take it off or complain.’

Let them know they were being pranked before it stops being funny and plain painful instead. If the partner in question already has stiff neck issues, don’t do it. If you are from one of those cultures where the garland is exchanged multiple times, make sure the heavy one ends up around the right neck. Else you will just end up caught in your own trap.

Don’t worry about the elders finding out and getting all offended, you have already conditioned your partner to not complain about it. As long as nobody outside the prank circle handles the garland, nobody has to know.

• Bugged Garlands

One big scare is if the garland has bugs or bees in it. Put some fake bugs in it just for a natural decoration, maybe one or two fake butterflies here and there. If you want to prank, place one single realistic bee on it and point it out after it has landed around the victim’s neck. This one will be lame if the victim sees through it in a second. So do it only with people who are so scared of bugs and bees that they will do a little dance on stage before realising it is fake. You can use fake spiders too by the way.

• Xmas Tree Garlands

You might not care about the pranks. All you want is a unique pair of wedding garlands. You can decorate them with Xmas tree decorations. This idea can look stupid if you put too much of the decorations. Just a few is fine. This idea works best if you are having a mixed wedding between a Christian and a Hindu.

• Spray Painted Garlands

Get white garlands and spray paint them all over to join you in Holi matrimony. You see what I did there? Okay, you won’t appreciate it. But you will appreciate a dash of colours artistically placed. If you have no respect for puns, at least you will have respect for art.

• Bicoloured Garlands

Get double layered garlands with two colours running along parallel.

This will be a welcome change from the monochromatic or alternately bicoloured varmala designs for wedding.

• Pearl String Garlands

If you want to show off your wealth, add a string of pearls hanging from both the garlands. This will not only make the garlands look more beautiful and fun, but also add to your accessories! Make sure there is someone to take off the pearls from the garlands and putting them away safely when you’re done with the garlands.

• Missing Garlands

Coming back to pranks, how do you think losing one of the garlands at the end moment will work? It will make the bride or groom look irresponsible. Actually, it will make their families look careless. Everybody cuts the bride and groom some slack on their wedding day. Look everywhere for the garlands until someone starts panicking and then pull the garland out from a cover right near the stage, with a “I am here, stupid” note on it. Give the garland googly eyes to make it realistic.

Make sure you do the fake search for the missing garland only as long as it is still fun. The real fun is in the googly eyed garland sitting with sassy messages. You don’t want to waste time or actually make anybody panic.

• Garlands with Secret Messages

Talking about little notes, you can make it romantic and sweet, instead of playing pranks. Put posts on each of the garlands. These posts will be notes from the partner, and his or her family, for the new son or daughter to be. The messages can be anything from funny to real sweet. Keep them short and make sure people sign their names so that the bride and groom will know who it is. Get the posts ready the night before and just stick them all over, carefully when the garlands arrive.

This is how to make modern Indian wedding garlands fun. Add to these ideas, or customise them. But make sure, you pull it off with some maturity. Do not play too big pranks or push them for too long.

Here are some simple nail art tricks to help anybody wade through the nail art passion with some flair. Each of them involves very easily available props if there are props at all. Before you start experimenting with any of these designs, take a read and determine what colour combinations you’d like for each design.

• Loofah Trick

Cut a loofah to spread on your nail. You already have the first coat of the nail paint on. Let it dry. Now place the loofah well stretched, on each nail while you paint it with the second colour. You will get a symmetrical mesh design.

Alternately, if you want just the net lines and not filled diamond shapes for the second layer, stretch the loofah strip, apply the second nail polish on it, and press it over your nail. Remove immediately without the slightest shaking.

• DIY Matte Nail Enamel

If you want a matte finish, just dab some eyeshadow as the top coat for your nail polish. This will give your nail paint a unique shade. Leave just one nail glossy to accentuate the matte effect.

• Bobby Pin Polka Dots

Use bobby pins or matchsticks to put polka dot designs.

Wait for it to dry before putting a coat of transparent gel to lock the polka dots in.

• White Canvas

A white nail polish base serves as a canvas for many simple yet bright nail art techniques. You can go for polka dots of multiple colours on each nail, or a different colour for each nail. You can go for coloured splashes on a white base.

1. Black and White

Black and white nail polish is the most stylish yet formal combination.

If you want to deck up your nails even when you have a corporate job to go to every day, this is your go to colour combination.

• Sello Tape Lines

You might have tried the horizontal, vertical, or slanting stripe patterns on your nails, only to have it all messed up. The trick is to use sellotapes. If you want just two halves of different colours, be it vertical, horizontal, or diagonal, paint your entire nail with the first colour. Wait for it to dry and put a transparent coat. After that dries, cover half the nail with a sellotape and paint over the other half with the second colour. Remove the tape after it dries.

If you want stripes, cut thin strips of tape and stick them on carefully on a dried first coat. Paint over the entire nail with the second colour.

• Crumpled Plastic Print

If you want a messy pattern, crumple up some plastic and put some nail polish on it. Dab it on the first coat of the base colour. Asymmetric patterns will appear, wait for it to dry.

• Hole Guards

If you want bigger polka dots or semi-circles, use hole guards like you used tape. You can go for the half moon at the edge. You can even go for three different colours perfectly separated from each other, with the help of hole guards.

• Golden Sharpie Lines

Golden sharpies brighten up any colour of nail polish. Go for simple lines or boxes. Try making different designs for different nails if you want. If you want it to be simple and formal, draw the pattern on only the ring fingernail. Leave the rest with plain nail paint.The best thing about golden sharpies is, it adds to the bling suitable for wedding nail art, and goes with any colour of the base.

• Sharpie Marker Texts

Use thin sharpies to write texts on your first coat of nail polish of a contrasting colour. You can draw small animal figurines as well. Simple diagrams like smileys, sun, moon, animals, fish, drawn with a black sharpie on white or yellow nail paint looks cute. If you want it to look less childish, go for texts or simple patterns.

• Semi Dry Scribbles for a Second Coat

Before you throw away your old drying nail polish, try this trick. Make sure it is not completely dry, but just a little thick. The kind of dry that can be fixed with some drops of acetone. But don’t fix it yet. Put a coat of normal nail polish and then after it dries, brush through with the semi-dry polish to create a rough pattern.

• Sponge Texture

Sponges have curious patterns on them already. If you want something more symmetrical than crumpled plastic, use a sponge. Put the first coat, wait for it to dry. Then generously apply the second shade on the sponge and press it over your nail. Make sure no part of the sponge is dry, without the nail paint layer. Any unpolished part of the sponge will stick to your nail, ruining the entire nail.

• Minimalistic Single Lines and Dots

If you want your nail polish to look more naturally handcrafted, go for simple stripes and dots instead of using tape or bobby pins.

Use a thin nail polish brush to make the dots and lines on your own. The lines may be a little shaky, and the dots differently sized, but it will be a perfect DIY nail art.

• Polish splatter

Splatter colours with other nail polish shades on a white, black, or any dark or light shade. Thin down the nail polish, you are splattering; else there will be big globs on some nails, and nothing on the rest.

• Layers

Layer up your nail polish with the sellotape technique. Make it look layered but apply the different colours only where they need to be, with the help of the tape that will peel off with the extra nail polish stroke.

• Glitter

To make any nail art design turn into a nail art for the wedding, just throw on some glitter. Try using some discretion while determining the glitter pattern which matches your unique bridal wedding dresses. Let the nail polish dry completely. Put a top coat of transparent gel and sprinkle the glitter on the nail beds or tips before it dries. Use the sellotape way if you want definite lines for the glitter. Put the transparent coat only after the tape has been placed.

• Half Nail Paint

Women wear big chunky earrings on just one ear now. Some people wear trousers cut to different lengths. A lack of symmetry is in.

So, instead of going for two different coats for each nail, you can cover the naked nail with tape and paint over just half of it. You don’t even need the tape if you have got steady hands. This is the quickest way to a quirky nail art.

• The illusion of Half Nails with Nude Shades

If you don’t want to do the half nails thing but like the idea of it, put a base coat of a totally nude peach shade. Let it dry, cover it up, and paint the other half with a prominently dark shade. Do not go for exactly half of the nail. Keep it 1/3rd or 2/3rd.

• Shearing Scissors for Tapes

For zigzag nail art designs, use shearing scissors to cut the tape before pasting it on a dried base coat. Paint over the nail with a contrasting colour and when you lift the tape, the line separating the two colours will be a zigzag one.

• Fan Brush Strokes

If you want a carefully devised careless strokes effect, use a fan brush or washed mascara liner to zigzag through the first coat. It will look like careless brush strokes through the first coat.

So here were some nail art designs for you to follow for your unique wedding reception. Most of them are simple. The target is to make every nail look good. You may not be the most creative person, or the person with the steadiest hands, or someone with ample time for nail art. That does not mean you don’t get to enjoy nail art every once in a while.

Here are some latest blouse designs to help you decide what kind of blouse you want. The drape of the saree, the necklace you wear, your hairdo, the bridal makeup all depend on the blouse.

• Contrast sleeves

If you are going for a contrast, why not be a little more experimental and get a bicoloured blouse itself? Say, a yellow blouse with orange sleeves? You can match the colour of the sleeves with the saree, or go for a dual contrast with three major colours, the colour of the saree, the sleeves, and the blouse, all different! Again, choose a tasteful combination.

• Dori Back

The Dori back is probably the sexiest blouse trend. It came into fashion and stayed. If you are feeling extra bold, go for a single tied dori to hold your blouse together. But to be honest, when it comes to the dori back blouse, more is better. Go for a blouse with more than 4 doris and tie them all symmetrically. Just one suggestion, avoid pompom doris. They look ridiculous. Go for a classy dori style.

• Backless

You can go for a simple backless blouse. It is bold and trendy but simple at the same time. Flaunt your tattoos with this one. Since it is a wedding ceremony we are looking at, if you don’t have tattoos, get some henna tattoos.If you are the bride, looking into some backless blouse designs, get a translucent veil to keep it classy and mysterious.

1. Asymmetrical Backline

A unique wavy cut of the back always adds to the attractive element of a blouse. Make sure there is a wide border so that your blouse does not look basic. Also, make sure the backline of the blouse hides your bra fully. You don’t want to dress lousy at a wedding.

• Contrast

This isn’t quite one of the latest blouse designs if we are looking at Bollywood. But very few women dare to pull off a contrast blouse colour with their sarees in real life.So, be the trendsetter of the squad. Go for statement colours like pink, fuschia, yellow, orange, neon green, and turquoise. Set a tasteful contrast. Blue and yellow, pink and orange, brown and yellow, green and blue, are some of the good bold combinations.

• Pot Neck

The pot neck is both, trendy and conventional. It is one of the few blouse neck designs that are good for women of any age.With embroidered borders, your pot neck blouse can spark up the plainest saree. The best thing about a pot neck blouse is, you get to flaunt your upper back tattoo no matter where it is.

• Designer Embellishment

If we are talking about slight embroidery, border embellishment, and some bling on the blouse, it isn’t an option. It is a wedding for heaven’s sake! Your blouse has to be attractive. But you can go for a totally embellished blouse and that is an option.Get a unique designer embellished blouse. When you have a blouse with heavy work, go a little lighter with the sequins on the saree. You don’t want to look like a walking mirror. Balance it out.

• Kerala Saree blouse

There is a typical beauty in a Kerala blouse design. The colours are mostly traditional, like red, white, and gold. If you want a traditional look, go for this option.The people with an eye for it will see the class in your choice of blouse. Others will simply think you make anything look great.

• Net/ lace

Laces have been in fashion forever. But it is a risky choice. With nets and laces, you can either look like a fairy princess, or totally classless. You need to use just the right amount of net and lace at the right places. Keep the front of the blouse totally solid and the back semi-solid, with the net adorning the extra portion of the blouse.

You can have net sleeves, no matter the length. Laces are easier to carry. Put them on the borders of the sleeves or on the base of the blouse, or both. Make sure the colours in a net blouse are sober one like light green, or blue, or a traditional one like red or maroon. Nets and laces look great in black but that’s not quite the colour for a wedding, especially if you are the bride. But white and golden are the go-to colours that you can never go wrong with.

• Embroidery

Nothing in bridal dresses speaks class like original handmade embroidery. It is a wedding, so don’t go around minimalistic. Get a full embroidery covered blouse on a contrast base.White base with golden embroidery is undoubtedly the best option. But if you don’t want to wear a white or golden saree, colourful embroidery on a light base is good too.

• Full Sleeves

Sleeveless and half sleeves are common. With a full sleeved blouse, you get the maximum space to flaunt the latest blouse designs.The sleeves can be net, embroidered, or a contrast pattu or cotton fabric. Make sure there are borders to complete the look.

• Halter neck

Halter necks seem to be going out of fashion. But if you have a slender frame you must flaunt a halter neck.Nothing looks as delicately sophisticated as delicate collar bones and shoulders in a halter neck. With a halter neck blouse, go for a bold colour and leave the embellishments for the saree.

• High Neck

High neck blouses or boat necks are the best styles for women with a long neck. Flaunt your tall frame with a high neck blouse and don’t forget to wear a generous string of pearls or a custom necklace with these blouse neck designs.

• Banarasi Cotton

Comfortable, classy, and sophisticated. Banarasi cotton blouses do justice to the bright colours. It is a highly recommended fabric for a wedding.

• Floral on Chiffon

Multi-coloured floral designs on a sober chiffon base are traditional and bright. It is a perfect wedding blouse that can make any saree look good. Though, they go best with plain sarees without any prints. Focus on the blouse. This will make your saree look good.

• Zari

Weddings are one excuse to wear all the zari you want. The best thing about zari is that you can wear it with any colour saree. You can have a contrasting blouse colour to add to the brightness. The zari will take care of the wedding look. You can have zari on your saree too. The bad thing is, it is difficult to maintain. The slightest pull or pricking can ruin the blouse. So, be very careful while pinning the pallu on.

• Kundan and mirror work

The kundan and mirrors blouse design is very dicey. Mirrors can make the blouse look too sparkly. Of course, little kids will try to see their reflection in the blouse and that is annoying, or cute. But you can never go wrong with just kundan. Go for a dark shade of blouse to let the kundan work stand out. If you are going for mirror work, go for a light shade of blouse even if it has kundan work. That will give a toned down illusion to the reflection.

• Puffy sleeved

Puffy sleeves are as traditional as it gets. The Bongs call it the ghoti haata, meaning the pot sleeve, because of its shape.

You can choose the amount of the poof in the puffy sleeves. It is recommended to go for a full out puff and pull it off with confidence and a traditional bun typical to the wedding hairstyle.

• Artsy cuts in sleeves

If you don’t feel bold enough to go for dori, or backless, but still want to go for some cuts anyway, go for cuts on the sleeves. This will make the whole blouse, in fact, the whole saree look unique. You can also go for asymmetrical sleeves with different artsy cuts on either sleeve. Keep the rest of the saree traditional and bright to balance out the funk.

• Motifs

Get colourful motifs on the borders of the sleeves. This works best for full sleeves or three quarters. You get more surface area to flaunt colourful motifs stitched in golden thread. This will make your saree look conspicuous even if it is the simplest one.

With all these beautiful blouse neck designs and sleeve, designs don’t wear your pallu down. Flaunt the blouse with the choicest jewellery and your most confident gait.
