Mogra is a bloom that has been a part of the great Indian wedding for aeons of time. Its delicate, gorgeous to look at and has a fragrance that will enchant you. While it was primarily used in gajras and haars, mogra has moved beyond those borders and is showing its versatility. The old-world charm of the mogra mixed with the modern wedding décor styles is a sight to behold. Along with that, there are a plethora of other ways you can invite the charming old mogra into your wedding fold.
So, we decided to give you seven fragrant ways to adding mogras to your wedding and we promise that you will thank us for these snippets of white magic!

From your entrance décor to your wedding mandap, the enchanting mogra can be used everywhere! What’s more, you don’t have to use it as a filler bloom, it stands on its own for an all-white look or mixed with some colourful blooms as well. We are loving all sorts of mogra décor – trellis, mandap, centrepieces and even mogra chandeliers!

While we all love the old school gajras, mogras are now used in a range of hairstyles and hairdos for brides as well as bridesmaids. We love a sleek bun with mogra adorements or even a gajra laden braid that has been trending since the last wedding season. You can also keep it simple with mogra gajras cascading down your tresses. What we love about mogra in hairstyles is the mix of modern hairdos with a traditional bloom!
Mogra Floral Jewellery

Floral jewellery is a must have for mehendis and haldi events. They add such a bridal feel to any look instantly. To add to that, mogra floral jewellery has been a trending style for brides. We loved how some brides kept it simple by just opting for gajra-style jewellery while some went for dainty handmade mogra bud jewellery pieces that accentuated their look so well.

Mogra buds make for the most gorgeous statement accents at weddings, especially when you have cabana style seating or bridal lounges.
Refreshing Mogra Jaimalas

Mogra garlands were always a favourite at Indian weddings but Alia-Ranbir’s wedding jaimalas have brought them back in trend. Dainty and oh-so-pretty, mogra is a great floral for jaimalas if you are looking to keep in the pastel family. You can mix it up with baby’s breath like Alia and Ranbir did or keep it all mogra!
Mogra Phoolon Ki Chaadar & Umbrellas

When one element of your wedding is completely made of florals, why look beyond the gorgeous mogra? A stunning mogra phoolon ki chaadar is such a lovely way to include mogra into your wedding. You can also opt for a mogra umbrella if you are not a fan of the phoolon ki chaddar for your entry. Not only can you enjoy the fragrant bloom as you walk down the aisle, a mogra chaadar or umbrella makes for great captures!
