What Does A Traditional Muslim Bridal Look Include?
Muslim Jewellery
Muslim jewellery is one of the most stunning parts of their bridal look. The karigars design the most gorgeous passas and jhoomers for brides who love their hair jewellery. These are pieces that a bride can wear at the side of her hair, adding a very royal look to her wedding day. If a bride is wearing a hijab on her wedding day, stunning maangtika designs can be added to her wedding jewellery too!
Pearl jewellery also is a huge part of Muslim weddings. Whether its chokers or multi-layered pieces, pearl jewellery is a must-have in any Muslim bride’s trousseau. Along with that, coloured precious stone jewellery also features predominantly at Islamic weddings!
Here are some unique ways to style a jhoomer or passa for your special days!
Unique Outfits

From a traditional saree with a veil to lavish ghararas, the muslim bridal outfit range is huge. We love the intricacies for bridal shararas and ghararas, that instantly elevate the bridal look. For the nikkah, most brides opt for heavily embroidered ones with unique cutdana work or even zardozi.
A veil or a dupatta is one of the most important elements in a Muslim bride’s wedding look. It can't be complete without one. You can opt for a light net veil if your outfit is heavy or a gorgeous velvet one for the winter!
For smaller events like the mehendi and haldi, brides opt for lighter lehengas and even floor-length gowns that are easier to manage in.

Offbeat Colours

While reds and pinks are common in other cultures, Muslim brides opt for unique and offbeat colours for their wedding outfits that we love. From golds and silver to pastels, their range of colours is usually on the lighter side. While they do opt for solid and jewel tones like emerald greens and maroons, their love for pastels shines through.
For the walima function, brides opt for darker colours that they can shine through!
