ATTIRE RECOMMENDATIONS

FAQs

ATTIRE RECOMMENDATIONS

Indian attire is not required for any of our events. However, for those who would like to, below you can find some suggestions on what to wear and where to buy/rent from. Recommended attire: Welcome Dinner: Semi-Formal Indian (Indo-western) or Semi-formal American Sangeet/Mehndi: Traditional Indian or Formal Attire Vidhi: Traditional Indian or Semi-formal Attire Wedding: Traditional Indian or Formal Attire Reception: Indo-western or Cocktail Attire Colors: Red/Dark pink: is typically the bridal color, and you usually refrain from wearing it to the wedding ceremony Black: to err on the side of caution, only wear this color to the reception or an evening event

Women's Outfits

Traditional Indian outfits include lehenga choli (basically a crop top, maxi skirt with/without a long scarf/dupatta), saree, and salwar kameez/anarkali (an a-line dress). Note: If you do not know how to put on a saree, it may not be comfortable for you to wear. A lehenga choli or salwar kameez/anarkali are more comfortable and easier to wear.

Men's Outfits

Traditional Indian outfits include kurta pyjama/pajama or sherwani. Note: For the Sangeet/Mehndi event, male guests are invited to wear comfortable, colorful Indian outfits or semi-casual attire to the event.

Sizing & Shipping

Please look closely at the sizing chart on each website. Indian sizes tend to run small most of the time, so pay close attention as returns/exchanges may be difficult (something to keep in mind: it is easier to fix something that may fit a little loose, but it is much harder to fix something that is too tight/small). Furthemore, look for “ready to ship” or “custom stitching” options. Do not order semi-stitched unless you have a trusted tailor who knows how to stitch Indian clothes. Please also be aware of shipping times, especially internationally, as there have been known delays. It is best to order your items as soon as possible to ensure you receive them in a timely manner.
