Guests are encouraged to wear what they feel comfortable in, whether that is traditional Indian attire or formal Western attire. We've outlined various options below: Traditional Indian Attire - Sarees, lehengas, or salwar kameez are beautiful choices. If you have never draped a saree before, please consider either buying a pre-draped saree, or choosing one of the other clothing options. - Kurta sets (with or without a vest), sherwanis, or bandhgala suits are great options. Western Attire - Dresses, long skirts with a blouse, and jumpsuits in bright colors or elegant prints are perfect. Aim for something modest yet celebratory. - Suits or dress shirts with slacks and a blazer are fitting. A Few Helpful Tips - Colors: Avoid wearing all black or white clothing, as these colors are not associated with celebratory events. Don’t be afraid to embrace bold colors and festive patterns! - Shoes: While it is a formal event, be sure to wear shoes that are comfortable enough for dancing during Ethan's procession. - The ceremony will be outdoors in the morning.
We kindly request our guests to wear formal attire, whether that is a classic gown, suit, or any of the Indian attire options we've previously mentioned. Below are some ideas: - For those who enjoy wearing dresses, gowns, or jumpsuits: Consider floor-length gowns, elegant midi dresses, or chic jumpsuits in rich, celebratory colors. - For those who prefer suits: A classic suit, or tailored blazer with dress pants and a tie is perfect. A Few Helpful Tips - Colors: Please avoid wearing white, ivory, or very light shades that might resemble bridal attire. - Shoes: While it’s a formal event, be sure to wear shoes that are comfortable enough for dancing! - The ceremony will be outdoors in the evening.
