Every woman I know wants to look her best at weddings. I definitely try to look my best at weddings. Even if that means leaving bread for a few days 😉
Weddings come and go, but the compliments stay forever.
How to look stunning at weddings
Figure friendly clothes
Please do not go with the latest fads. Wear what you can carry. If you can carry skinny pants go for that. If you prefer shararas go for that. I always like to wear straight cut pant suits as that goes better with my body type. If you like to wear sarees, make sure you buy the one that suits you the most.
Complimenting Bags
Nowadays people just carry their cell phones in their hands, at weddings. But, personally prefer to carry matching bags or clutch if I can. You can even invest in just a gold and silver one. that seems to work very well with me. I buy a lot of these bags online, as it is really convenient.
Earrings
I believe in the phenomena that less is more. So I just like to wear some good chandelier earrings and skip the neck piece completely. I feel you should look classy and not like a jewellery shop.
Wrist Watches
well, the mobiles phones have definitely impacted the use watches. But when in weddings, what fun if you cant add some blingy watches at weddings?
MakeUp
My basic make up is an eyeliner, lipstick and some foundation. Well , I need to hide my dark circles. But, if you can do eye makeup well then please go for it. It should look classy and not too loud. Let bride get all the loud dose of makeup at weddings. Its her wedding, after all;)
Hair-Style
A tried and tested style is flat iron your hair. You can never go wrong with that. Although, if you would try buns or some other hairstyles make sure you look good. You don’t want to look odd at the wedding, right? I generally straighten my hair and tie in a pony.
Shoes
Once again do not go with the fashion. I cannot walk in heels, unless they are wedges. So, although I would love to look like Malaika Arora and walk in pencil heels, I just can’t. So wear what you can carry. Trust me that will hel you look your best at weddings.
Perfume
Well you need to smell the best at weddings. When you hug your relatives you don’t want to be smelling bad. Try to wear a mild fragrance, if you are prone to headaches. Otherwise a strong one works better. In summers though, milder ones are better.
Happy Attitude
Well no prizes foe guessing, that this is the most important ingredient to look stunning. How you feel at a wedding, and how you carry yourself reflects in your eyes. Happiness will result in confidence, which will show on your face.
So , do not forget to be happy, as you leave your home looking like a million bucks.
I hope you guys enjoyed reading my tips, keep looking stunning.:)

This is perfect ensemble of a post for wedding season
Such a nice guide Z. Weddings are the only place I try to wear sarees.
Nice tips!!
Weddings are the perfect time to deck up! You have listed some nice points.
Great suggestions for looking your best at a wedding, without looking gaudy. I would recommend always wearing light perfume, however, because some of the other guests might start sneezing uncontrollably, which doesn’t encourage a romantic atmosphere. 🙂
I so love reading such posts, Zainab! It’s therapy for this simpleton, you know? I mean, although I like doing all of the above, I end up dressing much simpler…no, not a Plain Jane, but, I don’t go overboard, either, and stick to what I feel comfy in. And, although I am not at all a makeup person, I love to read about makeup! So, your post made for some really entertaining read! Thank you! 🙂
I love going traditional for weddings. A nice silk sari with some traditional jewelry and I am set. Mostly I prefer to tie to my hair and I like smallish heels with saris. I enjoyed reading this post, Zainab.
Loos nice and classy.
I love your tips.Specially about shoes and smelling nice.I adore blingy bags.
Classy fashion can never go old. Plus kitten heels are a saviour in weddings… Not too high that they start hurting… And not flat either. Great tips.
For someone who thinks she has no fashion sense, I am delighted to know that I actually do most of these 😀
Sarees are my go-to for traditional events and I am very comfortable in them. Except for the make up and I usually prefer just eye-liner, I make sure I accessorise too. Without even realising it! Guess there’s a quiet fashion diva inside me 😉
This was a very lovely post, Zainaab!
A well-rounded list, I must say. I have hardly attended any weddings after becoming an ‘adult’ with being so far from home and relatives but I’m definitely going to keep this in mind for my sister’s wedding 🙂
hey, what amazing suggestions but you know i always end up feeling too overdressed, i think its very important that one of the things are jazzy rest everythign is plain and simple.
Nothing like a happy attitude to make one look instantly stunning!
Great tips here.
This is ana amazing list. Loved it. And i agree with the point about using a mild fragrance instead of a strong one.
This looks so classy and upmarket!! Those watches are to die for. I am sure it will look splendid in beautiful writst.
Looking good starts with comfort and then dressing for the occasion. Well classic trends in suits or sarees will never go out of fashion. You are bang on about cell phone I can’t stand how people cannot invest in a clutch when they invest heavily in an outfit.
Perfect list of what you do when you are attending a wedding
I guess a bag and watch complete the formal look for a woman. And I personally like wearing saree so there is no comparison beyond that.
That’s very useful tips to plan wedding shopping. Love the collection
I agree that comfort and being able to carry oneself is the most important thing. While I am not very knowledgeable on fashion and makeup, I think sarees work for me the best. A good bag, kajal and lip color make it good. Hair, I always prefer open. 🙂
Good tips!
Practical tips Zainab. Weddings are reason enough to make me sweat about the blouse – will it fit ????
I really tend to think using the wedding makeup artist should be optional… Most people are pretty emotionally prepared for dresses that aren’t their style when they agree to bridesmaid, not everyone is prepared for their face to not look like their face.
These tips are on-point. I love having simple but elegant make-up looks, matching with a simple pair of earrings! 🙂
Wow so nice. You really look stunning. I want to buy designer gowns to look stunning in the wedding party.
