Is your best friend getting married?\u00a0 Are you excited yet worried about it all? Well, that\u2019s absolutely normal. If your friend is from subcontinent or India to be precise, you have a lot to take care of than usual stuff. Unlike Western weddings Indian\/Pakistani\/Bangladeshi weddings are a 3-4 days affair with 4-5 functions. Styling a different look for every function can be a task considering the fact that most of these ceremonies are traditional and there are gonna be hundreds of\u00a0 people attending the function and you have to stand out from the crowd (afteral you are bride\u2019s best friend).<\/p>\n

Most of the girls ask us, how they should shop for an Indian wedding without splurging much. So, we thought of covering this crucial question in this week\u2019s blog. So here\u2019s how you should divide or budget your money.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Make a list of functions first<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Every wedding is differently programmed, firstly make a list of the function so that you have a clear idea how many and what all ceremonies are gonna happen. Now prioritize the functions for example wedding is more important that cocktail and mehendi is a bigger function than haldi.<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Always start with what you already have<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Now dig in to your wardrobe find out a few outfits that you haven\u2019t worn much and can be used for lesser important functions like chooda, ladies sangeet, etc.<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Mix and Match to Save those extra bucks<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Sometimes it\u2019s wiser to mix and match the outfits that you already have to make a new one. If one of your old lehengas has a very pretty skirt but blouse is not that cool, you can get a fancy blouse customized along with a matching dupatta. Voila! A brand new dress is ready and you saved almost half of the amount that you can invest in another outfit.<\/p>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Invest the most in the wedding outfit<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Keep a bigger chunk of your budget for the wedding ceremony. Apparently, the wedding ceremony is gonna be the biggest of them all. By saving a few dollars by above mentioned means you can in fact, get a bespoke traditional outfit designed for yourself. Customized fit, fabric and feel!<\/p>\n

          \"\"<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. You can’t underestimate Cocktail & Mehendi<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Cocktail & mehendi are important functions, yes, they are not as significant as the wedding but they are the ones where you enjoy the most, meet maximum number of people and get clicked the most. Pick a pretty western gown for cocktail and traditional outfit for mehendi. You may keep a comparatively bigger budget for your cocktail outfit and a smaller budget for mehendi because for mehendi more than the work, the colours of the dress has to be richer. For mehendi you may keep your dress lighter and jewellery heavy.<\/p>\n
