Frequently Asked Questions

What should the bride's sister wear?

Something festive that stays comfortable through a long day of rituals and photographs, in a colour the bride has not chosen for herself. Light pure chiffon suits the sangeet and reception, and washable mul cotton suits the haldi.

Can bridesmaids wear the same colour as the bride?

It is better not to. Ask the bride for her colours for each function and choose a shade from the same palette instead, so the group sits beside her without blending in.

How do we coordinate bridesmaid sarees without looking identical?

Keep one thing the same and vary the rest: one colour in different shades, a palette of pastels, or different sarees with the same blouse colour.

How do we order matching sarees for a group?

Place one order for identical sarees so they come from the same batch, and check the stock count before everyone commits. Sarees are free size, so each person only needs her blouse stitched, which she can do locally to a shared brief.

Which fabric is best for a bridesmaid saree?

Pure chiffon for the sangeet and reception: it is light, moves with you and creases far less than cotton. Mul cotton suits the haldi and mehendi, where you may sit for hours or get turmeric on your clothes.

What should the groom's sister wear?

The same ideas apply. Ask both families about colours, avoid the bride's main shade and choose something light enough to dance in at the sangeet.

Bridesmaid Sarees for Your Sister's Wedding

As the bride's sister or one of her closest friends, you are on your feet all day, in most of the photographs and often helping with the rituals. This edit is built for that: light pure chiffon and mul cotton sarees in colours that coordinate across a group, at prices that make buying four or five together realistic. A saree is free size, so only the blouses need fitting, which makes it easy for a group spread across different cities.

How to Coordinate a Group

Pick one thing to keep the same: the saree, the colour family or the blouse. One design for everyone is the simplest. A palette of pastels, such as lavender, pink and powder blue, lets each person choose her own shade. Ask the bride for her colours for each function first and stay away from her main one. Order identical sarees together in one order so they come from the same batch, and check how many are in stock before the group commits.

By Function

For the haldi, yellow pure chiffon such as Liora, or Harvest Sun in mul cotton gingham, which hand washes after the turmeric. For the mehendi, green is a popular choice: Zyra in lime green pure chiffon or Spring Fern in pastel green gingham. For the sangeet, pure chiffon is light and moves with you; Rouge Waves in a pink leheriya print is made for dancing. For the reception, Damask Rose, a hand painted chiffon, or Vintage Aqua, a hand embroidered chiffon, reads dressier. See all wedding sarees for the main day.
