Hi everyone! I’m starting the process of looking for my wedding lehenga this weekend and would love your advice. Sharing a few specific things I’m trying to figure out:
• How early should I finalise the lehenga before the wedding?
• How many fittings are typically needed?
• What should I pay attention to while trying on lehengas (comfort, weight, etc.)?
• How do I decide between custom vs off-the-rack?
• Any red flags to watch out for at designer stores?
• What kind of dupatta / blouse styles are most practical?
• How do I make sure the lehenga photographs well (colours, work, etc.)?
• What do people usually wear to fittings, should I be doing makeup, wearing heels, etc.?
Would really appreciate any tips or lessons from your experiences. Thank you!
