Are you on the verge of your wedding? That’s wonderful! As the date arrives near, the busyness of booking the venue to finding the designer for the trousseau increases. If you are about to have a big fat Indian wedding then preferably you would choose a lehenga or a saree as your wedding dress or what they call trousseau in the West. Despite the wedding dress, you also need to purchase quite a few sets of silk block print kurta set, line tussar dresses, sarees, and various other ethnic Indian dresses during the wedding.
Top designers often provide a complete package for the brides and grooms that comes out to be quite beneficial as Indian weddings have multiple functions and the brides and grooms have to get perfectly prepared for each of them from haldi, mehendi, and sangeet before the wedding. Besides the jazzy and expensive clothes, the couples also need casual clothes for which the bride’s family picks sanganeri kurti sets to stay comfortably before and after the grand ceremony.
Let’s explore some steps to buy a designer wedding trousseau for your Indian wedding—
Choose your favorite designer
On the first go, you need to visit your selected designer. Before taking any drastic decision, you should do your research on the types of designs they do on the wedding lehengas and the groom’s attire. If you are recently influenced by the wedding dress of any celebrity, then you can also approach that designer to help you create the wedding lehenga or saree. Likewise, you can also pick a kaftan kurti set made of pure silk or tussar with fine embellishment work on it to wear for the haldi or any such occasion.
Therefore, keep visiting the studios of your shortlisted designers physically and before the initial talk and exploration of the recently designed trousseaus, you can approach a designer who along with the team will make you the perfect bride that you always dreamt of.
Talk about your choices before the final design
Unlike the wedding lehenga shopping from a retail store, along with an indigo kurta set, kaftans, and other dresses for the ceremony- the designers will take your appointment to have a face-to-face discussion about your preferences.
You should talk your heart out regarding the designs and the color combination as you must remember that it will be your final opportunity to let the designer and the team know about your choices.
They will create a final draft of the design and will call you on a given date. After checking out the final design, if you agree, they will continue with creating the trousseau.
Sometimes, the designer should have some pre-designed collections from where they ask you to choose a saree or a lehenga that they can customize for you. Top designers usually follow this concept unless you are not restricted within any budget and request them to re-create the trousseau for you.
You should visit the designer a year before the wedding as the designers often take time for over a year considering the exclusivity of the wedding lehenga they stitch.
