What To Wear For Each Event Of The Wedding As A Groom
Mehendi
Vibe: Fun and vibrant
Mehendi is for outfits that are fun, vibrant, and colourful. Ditch the neutrals, keep it very desi, and don’t forget to be a little playful—quirky prints, colourful florals, mirrorwork, statement sunnies, the works!

Haldi
Vibe: demure
For your haldi, you might want to dial down on the color. Think beige, ivory, cream and all shades of yellow! Go for easy, relaxed silhouettes, and keep it minimal—Chikankari embroidery, sheer kurtas, minimal accessories.

Cocktail
Vibe: Cool and contemporary
This is your moment to bring on the suave. Keep it very cool, contemporary, and sharp. Impeccable tuxedos with not a hair out of place should be your mood board for this one. Or even if you’re going to wear something Indian, keep things very chic. That super cool, slightly futuristic Amit Aggarwal outfit you’ve been wanting to wear forever? Now is your time!

Sufi Night
Vibe: regal
If you’re hosting a Sufi Night for your wedding, your mood board as a groom better be rich, regal and dramatic. Seriously, we’re talking period-drama level regal. Try to channel your inner Sanjay Leela Bhansali male lead for this one. Stunning drapes, angrakhas, sharp achkans with intricate zardozi embroideries, bandhgalas with embroidered shawls!

Wedding
Vibe: Classic, with lots of gravitas
For the wedding, keep things classic—Sherwanis, Bandhgalas, Achkans. You can take the maximalist route with an all-over embroidered sherwani, or choose to keep things minimal, with a simple plain sherwani and a layered necklace. But always keep it classic.
