Frequently Asked Questions

What should a wedding guest wear?

Something festive but not competing with the bride. Jewel tones, gold and pastels all work. Avoid solid red and white at most Indian weddings unless the family specifies otherwise.

Can I wear a cotton saree to a wedding?

Yes, particularly for daytime functions like Haldi and Mehendi, and for the mehendi and sangeet where you will be moving around. A zari border lifts a cotton drape into festive territory. See our edit of cotton sarees for wedding.

What colour should I avoid at an Indian wedding?

Solid red is traditionally the bride's colour, and plain white carries mourning associations in some communities. Both are worth checking with the family first.

What are the latest trending sarees for wedding guests?

The current trend for wedding guests is moving away from heavy brocades to fancy lightweight sarees. Pastel color sarees (like mint green and peach), shimmering tissue fabrics, and modern white sarees with designer borders are top choices this season.

What should the sister of the bride wear?

The sister of the bride needs a standout look. A designer fancy saree in a bold color like metallic gold, royal blue, or a modern pastel drape is perfect. It strikes the right balance between being festive and fashionable without overshadowing the bride.

Can I wear a simple saree to a wedding?

Absolutely. A simple saree for a wedding is a chic, modern choice. To elevate the look, pair a plain tissue or chiffon saree with a heavy designer blouse and statement jewelry. This creates a sophisticated, balanced outfit perfect for friends of the couple.

Is it okay to wear white to an Indian wedding?

Yes, times have changed! Modern white bridal sarees and white sarees for wedding guests (often paired with gold or silver zari) are highly trending. An ivory or off-white tissue saree exudes royalty and is now a popular choice for day weddings.

Wedding Sarees for the Modern Guest

Weddings are no longer just about heavy drapes. For the modern wedding guest, the shift is toward drapes that offer presence without weight. Our collection features tissue and chiffon sarees that make a statement while staying comfortable through a long function.

Sister of the Bride

As the sister of the bride, you are on your feet all day and in most of the photographs. Our metallic tissue drapes and zari-bordered weaves give you presence without the weight of a worked saree. A gold or deep jewel-toned drape photographs well under both daylight and evening lighting.

Simple and Minimal

For friends and extended family, less is usually more. Our plain sarees in mul cotton and linen let you enjoy the phere and the after-party equally, and they carry a contrast blouse beautifully.

By Function

Every wedding is several events. For Haldi, light yellow cotton that can take turmeric. For Mehendi, green drapes light enough to sit in for hours. For the reception, black and jewel-toned chiffon. For evening functions more broadly, our party wear edit.
