In 2023, we saw brides embrace ivory and gold wedding lehengas like no other. It's time we bid adieu to wear ONLY red and pink on the wedding day and say yes to wearing other colours. You can pick from stunning tangerine shades to unique aubergine ones for your wedding day!
Meaningless Favors

Your wedding favors are all about how much your guests will enjoy it. Which is why, couples are saying goodbye to meaningless wedding favors and saying yes to interactive stations and fun favors that the guests will love. A lot of couples are also skipping favors and instead having fun AI photobooths or wedding audiobooks that the guests will enjoy.

With couples opting for exclusive menus and eco-friendly weddings, the days when you have every cuisine for every event are stale. Couples are now saying yes to unique and sophisticated menus that focus on a certain style or cuisine of food for an event and going all out for that. For eco-friendly weddings, the aim is to waste less so limited options and more sit-down meals so that food wastage can be avoided!
Sparkler Entry and Send Offs

Haven’t we seen enough of them? When you're ready to make your big-day entry or exit, skip the sparklers. You can instead do smoke bombs, flower showers or even mirror aisles for that dramatic entry!
Feeling Pressured to Follow Tradition

More than ever, couples should surrender the idea that their wedding day has to fit anyone else's vision or follow certain trends and we believe that this is a trend we are leaving in 2023. More and more couples are writing their vows for Hindu weddings instead of traditional pre-written vows. Couples are opting for female priestesses, saying no to kanyadaan and saying no to animal-ridden baraats.

Haldi ceremonies got a huge upgrade in 2023 with urlis and planned flower showers. But the one thing that we are leaving behind in 2023 is opting for yellow for your haldi ceremony. Brides are picking unique hues, especially white, for Haldi to make the colour pop more!
Complicated Hashtags

In a world of social media where you want your guests to put up your wedding images and make them viral, you have to say goodbye to complicated hashtags. You want something that is fun and memorable enough that your guests use it!
