Indian weddings are known to be vibrant and full of bold colors. However, color choices may differ as per the newlyweds-to-be and the wedding ceremony season. The use of bright colors in combination with classic tints, for example- creams, blushes and peaches paired with hot pinks, reds and oranges to create bold visual statements. Elephant structures are widely used in Indian weddings as elephants are symbols of good luck and excellent fortune. They also represent loyalty, wisdom, and longevity.

Diwali is a festival full of lights. You cannot ignore this element when you’re thinking about Indian weddings. From fairy lights and sting lights to bulbs lanterns and candles, a generous amount of lights is the key to a lit celebration. For traditional ways, you can use diyas as well at the entrance. The lighting looks great on drapes as well for the haldi/mehendi setup.
