While looking at pictures of Indian brides, be it in South India or even North, wearing bridal lehengas have been quite a vast spread trend over decades and one cannot help but appreciate Indian bridal sarees more so for this. Indian bridal sarees are all about the luxurious, regal yet elegant vibe be it heavy Pattu saree or a modern saree gown with decadent drapes. There is a perfect Indian bridal saree suiting to every bride's wishes and style with a big room for customisation and personalisation just like lehengas.

Be it a summer wedding featuring a pastel-hued Indian bridal saree gown or a regal traditional red Pattu saree for a winter wedding, there are some factors you should bear in mind before you pick the Indian bridal saree for your big day.

1. The colour debate

So we are a sucker for brides who coordinate their outfit bearing their decor, season and even venue in mind. It all then works together to highlight the bride in all her glory. A bright pink colour Indian bridal saree with silver embroidery all over would work gloriously along with a beachside or morning wedding in the summer while a dark brooding colour like maroon for the Indian bridal saree would do wonders in the winter.

2. Picking out the perfect accessories

Finding the jewellery that compliments your Indian bridal saree may seem confusing but don't worry the key is to try your elements together to get a fair idea of how everything will work together. The same concepts like contrast, layering and even statement necklaces work with Indian bridal sarees.

But you must ensure the colours don't clash with your overall scheme and neither does the chain clash with the work on your saree. We have found layering simple lustrous gold chains often working with most sarees while your earrings and Maang Tikka leave space to manoeuvre and experiment! Oh and let's not forget the beautiful Kamarbandhs!

3. Picking the perfect style

There are so many different styles of sarees available starting from your regular saree, pre-draped saree, ruffle saree and saree gown.

There are even many types of Indian bridal saree ranging from Pattu saree to Banarasi to Kanjivaram to so many more we can barely count. Some brides even choose to recreate their mother's bridal saree for their big day as the quintessentially elegant Indian bridal saree.

4. To take the designer route or not?

The primary thing you buying a designer saree for your big day depends on is your budget, while a saree will be cheaper than buying a lehenga, it still comes with its own costs. The classic draped Gaurav Gupta saree gowns start from about ₹75,000 with the more glittery and bridal style starting from ₹1,50,000.

Ritu Kumar, Sabyasachi, Manish Malhotra and Anita Dongre are other big names with beautiful sarees for the big Indian bridal saree.
