Whenever we have to go for a wedding, the first thing that we do is look for that perfect outfit that suits the function. Now, by perfect we mean that it not only has to be stunning, but appropriate for the kind of wedding we’re going to – bestie’s wedding, cousin’s wedding, neighbour’s wedding… you get the point, right? Since shaadi season is almost here, we the women at POPxo have listed down our favourite outfits for the wedding season. Go ahead and take some inspo from the stylish girl squad!
1. No one can ever go wrong with ivory…
“I think ivory is really underrated when it comes to wearing it during the wedding season. And with a hint of gold and the right accessories, it can be a complete head-turner!”
– Shraddha Gurung, Assistant Producer, Beauty

2. Best to go lightweight on your bestie’s wedding…
“I wore a navy blue lehenga with an off shoulder blouse for my best friend’s wedding, and boy did it look killer! I didn’t want to wear a very heavy lehenga for the occasion because I wanted to dance and have fun in it. Instead, I chose an outfit that looked pretty and comfortable without being too cumbersome!”
– Anchal Bajaj, Graphic Designer
There’s nothing more comfy as block heels for a wedding! Buy this stunning pair from Jabong for Rs 1,105 and rock your look this shaadi season!
3. Royal blue is called ‘royal’ for a reason…
“Royal blue suits everyone, and for the sister of the groom or bride, it is a perfect choice! I chose this lehenga for my brother’s wedding, mainly because royal blue is my favourite colour. Also, it has a certain charm and grace about it that no other colour has!”
– Sumedha Sahni, Social Media Coordinator
4. Dressy but not overdressed…
“Picking outfits for a friend’s or relative’s wedding is easy, but choosing one for a neighbour’s wedding is a real task. Luckily, I had this gorgeous pista green suit which came to my rescue on one such occasion. It is dressy enough for a wedding, but didn’t make me look overdressed at all!”
– Shivani Shrivastava, Trending Editor
5. When in doubt, pick white…
“Most people go for colourful outfits for desi weddings, which is understandable given all the festivities associated with a shaadi. But we usually tend to ignore one colour that is a classic and suits everybody – white. I picked this lehenga for my cousin’s wedding and it was my best choice till date. The fact that everybody else was wearing reds, blues and yellows made my stark white lehenga stand out in the crowd.”
– Manvi Malhotra, Senior Wedding Writer
I bought this pretty and delicate mathapatti from Chandni Chowk, but you can get a similar one on Amazon for Rs 550.
6. Hot pink and green to the rescue…
“One can never go wrong with a combination of hot pink and green. I wore this lehenga for my sister’s wedding, and it not only looked stunning but also made heads turn! Since it was my sister’s wedding, I wanted to wear something elaborate, and this lehenga was just that.”
– Divya Sharma, Senior Manager, Client Services Wedding
7. Coz it’s all about owning your outfit…
“There is nothing prettier than this shade of pink, and the skirt makes this outfit so breezy. Plus, it covers your feet, so you’re free to wear your most comfortable pair of heels without feeling strained or being judged. I wore this for a morning function but I think it would work well for an evening engagement too. In the end, it’s all about owning your outfit!”
– Akanksha Bhatia, Lifestyle Writer
Do you love sharara suits too? Then you must check out this one we found on Pernia’s Pop-Up Shop. It’s a little expensive but totally worth it!
8. Anarkalis will never go out of fashion…
“For me anarkalis are a go-to when it comes to picking an outfit for a shaadi. They’re feminine, elegant and the best part is they never go out of fashion! We can always accessorize them differently to create a unique look every time. This way, we can wear it multiple times by improvising it according to the occasion.”
– Apoorva Poonia, Trending Writer
This gorgeous wine coloured anarkali is just perfect for a sangeet or mehendi ceremony. It’s available on Myntra for Rs 1,849!
