Summer weddings in India can be quite challenging due to the heat and humidity. This is precisely why along with the above-mentioned suggestions, we also have a few tips to share.
-
Colours: We know that bright and vibrant colours are the norm for Indian weddings, but in summer, you have the option of opting for lighter shades like pastels, yellows, and whites. So do not forget to consider them, as these colours also reflect light and heat, keeping you cool.
-
Fabric: Choose light, breathable fabrics for your outfit. Avoid heavy fabrics like velvet, and opt for cotton, linen, or chiffon instead. These fabrics will help you stay cool and comfortable in the heat.
-
Makeup: Wear light, minimal makeup. Choose a light-coloured lipstick, mascara, and a water-based foundation. In fact, if foundation does not suit you, you can skip it and only wear concealer. Avoid wearing thick makeup, which can melt in the heat and cause discomfort.
-
Hairstyle: If you are someone who sweats too much, choose a hairstyle that keeps your hair off your neck and face. A chic updo or a loose braid can be a good option. You can also add fresh flowers to your hair for a touch of summer elegance.
-
Accessories: Make sure the accessories you carry complement your outfits instead of drawing all attention towards them. And since summer wedding outfits are usually a bit simple-looking, feel free to balance them with heavy accessories such as jhumkis and baaliyans.
-
Hydration and sunscreen: For healthy, glowing skin, it is important to stay hydrated throughout the day. This can be accomplished by consuming lots of water, fresh juices, and coconut water. Additionally, sunscreen is a non-negotiable need, especially for daytime events to reduce the risk of sunburn and tanning.
