Hey lovelies! With the month of love in full swing, what better time to talk about weddings? Whether you're a bride-to-be or a guest prepping for the celebrations, wedding season is all about stunning outfits, statement jewellery, and unforgettable moments. From the latest bridal trends to must-know styling tips, here’s your ultimate guide to looking and feeling your best at every wedding event!
While I can’t give specific recommendations for each event (since every culture has its own traditions), here are some universal outfit tips to keep you comfy and stylish:
Classic Updo: A sleek bun always looks chic, but adding a jasmine scrunchie takes it to the next level. For extra detail, braid (Dutch or regular) the sides and blend them into your bun.
Bouncy Curls: Effortless and full of personality, loose curls pair perfectly with a maang tikka. Prefer something more structured? Try a curly ponytail with soft, face-framing pieces.
Half-Up, Half-Down: A twisted half-up style gives the perfect balance of elegance and ease, keeping your hair out of your face while still showing off those waves.
Braids: Go for a classic plait with jasmine accents or switch it up with a fishtail braid for a modern twist.
In South Asian weddings, gifting is a bit different from traditional weddings. For starters, boxed gifts are generally not common, unless they ask for it. If the couple has a specific wishlist, feel free to choose something from it.
However, if not, a thoughtful gift of money in a pretty envelope (you know exactly which sort of envelope I mean) or card is always appreciated. Don’t overthink it—money is a practical gift for newlyweds, helping them start their life together. Plus, it gives them the freedom to buy whatever they truly need, sparing you the guesswork of picking something they might never use!
It’s so important to choose the right artists for your wedding—whether it’s makeup, hair, or mehndi. Make sure you love their work and, if possible, take advantage of any trials they offer. You don’t want to be stressing about your look on your big day—this is your time to relax and enjoy everyone pampering you! And speaking of makeup, always keep any touch-up products the artist provides within reach, just in case. An emergency kit is a must-have to ensure you’re ready for anything!
Take photos whenever you can! While professional photos are great, having your own candid shots to look back on is special. Consider asking a friend to snap some photos on your phone, or explore apps/websites that let wedding guests share their photos in one place. This way, you get a variety of perspectives and can remember all the lovely people who joined your big day!
Beautiful jewellery, packed to perfection with so much care and love. I’m very impressed with the Super fast delivery.
I’m a proud owner of 7 pairs of anklets from Sokora Jewels (obviously obsessed) all siting in my wardrobe making me smile. The quality of the items is amazing and each piece is made to perfection.
Weddings are a whirlwind of love, laughter, and unforgettable moments, but they can also be overwhelming. Whether you’re the bride or a guest, planning ahead—from your outfit and hair to food vendors and personal moments—can make all the difference. Remember to embrace the day, take time for yourself, and enjoy every second. At the end of it all, it’s the memories, the people, and the joy that truly matter. 💕
Hope we could help :)
Love, Your Sokora Family.
