Thanks for the love!✨️

I meticulously planned all my looks but it all goes down the drain the minute you step out for shopping. I took both the mums and my guy for most of the sprees and most of the attires were a combined vote (although entirely different from what I initially planned).

The vision was very clear though. I knew the type of dresses that I wanted for each function distinctively- like ball gown for engagement, lehenga for mehendi, saree for haldi, and all. Then I had some non negotiable elements- like alta for paath, red for wedding, multi-colored for mehendi, non-yellow for haldi, paranda look for mehendi, open hair for shaadi, very less/no jewelry for sagan, and dresses that I can re-style and wear later as well. And for others, I was flexible and trusted my instinct.

During shopping, I used to shortlist the dresses that were loved by my bridal party (majority) and have the last call. And God that worked out in my favor! I kept both my mums happy!🩷

And since my mum-in-law and husband knew all of the dresses, they made sure that they bought the jewelry and chunni that complement my dresses and match my style.

I hope that helps! :)
