Stylish Bridal Sarees for an Indian Wedding

Bridal Sarees

Indian women have traditionally worn the saree for their wedding. Today, some brides opt for the lehgna choli (a skirt and blouse) wedding outfit, but many brides still prefer to wear the bridal saree. The bridal saree makes an Indian bride look elegant.

If you have the added benefit of being tall, then wearing a saree is all the more better for you as it adds a certain flowy grace to your wedding look.

Sarees today have a lot of work done on them - zari, embroidery, organza, zardosi, sequence, cut work, mirror work, patchwork, pearl work, kasab, kundan are just some of the different kinds of work that are found on a bridal saree.

You will want to pick out something suitable for you - can you handle a saree that has a lot of work on it, and hence heavy to wear, or would you prefer something of a lighter material.

A darker complexioned bride would do well to pick out lighter colours, as dark colours have the effect of making you look too dark. You will want something to brighten your look. And fairer brides should stay away from light colours, or risk looking washed out.

Here are some bridal saree styles that are in fashion. You can't go wrong if you picked out something like the below for your wedding.
