Must-Visit Bridal Wear Destinations In Delhi
For brides who love rich Indian textiles
Ekaya
Where: Defence Colony, DLF Emporio
If your aesthetic is minimal and earthy, Ekaya Banaras is just the label for you. You can choose to pay homage to the rich Indian textile through one of your wedding looks with Ekaya. They just launched a new collection in collaboration with 431-88 that brings together the easy, fuss-free silhouettes of 431-88 and the rich Indian textiles of Ekaya. The label has not one, but two stores in Delhi, one in DLF Emporio, and the other in Defence Colony.
Shanti Banaras
Where: Mehrauli
Another brand that’s all about rich Indian textiles isShanti Banaras. If Banarasi lehengas and saris are your jam, there is no way you can miss this one. There is something super elegant and effortless about brides wearing Banarasi lehengas and saris at their wedding. If you want to be one such bride, you can not miss the Shanti Banaras store in Mehrauli.
Raw Mango
Where: Lodhi, Chhatarpur
Raw Mango is another great option for brides who are all about timeless, rich fabrics and not blending in with the crowd. Put their Delhi store in your shopping itinerary if you want to explore stunning Indian brocades and classic silhouettes for your wedding day outfit or even your trousseau.
For the quirky bride
Aisha Rao
Where: DLF Emporio
Brides that love everything fun, quirky, edgy and colourful have to check out Aisha Rao. If you are one such bride, you can not miss this one, for the sheer drama it offers in terms of colours and prints. Lucky for us, Aisha Rao just launched a new store in DLF Emporio!
Papa Don’t Preach by Shubhika
Where: Mehrauli
This one is a no-brainer. The Papa Don’t Preach bride is nothing if not quirky. Dopamine colours, and offbeat, striking embroideries make it a perfect pick for the quirky bride. What’s more, they have really cool shoes and bags as well.
For the avant-garde bride
Rimzim Dadu
Where: DLF Emporio
No one does textile innovation likeRimzim Dadu. If you’re a bride that would like to deviate from anything remotely mundane, Rimzim Dadu is just the pick for you.
Amit Aggarwal
Where: DLF Emporio, Mehrauli
While we are on brides who like to experiment,Amit Aggarwalis another brand unconventional brides can not miss! Their ICW 2024 collection, in particular, is a lesson in unconventionalism, nonconformity and futurism. As a lover of avant-garde fashion, I feel like a kid in a candy store at Amit Aggarwal stores. They have 2 stores in Delhi—one in Mehrauli, and another at DLF Emporio!
Gaurav Gupta
Where: DLF Emporio, Mehrauli
You can not talk about avant-garde Indian designers and not mentionGaurav Gupta. You can go for a beautiful GG lehenga, or try something more nonconformist, like the metallic breastplates they did recently. Gaurav Gupta also has two stores in Delhi—one in Mehrauli, and another at DLF Emporio.
For the opulent bride
Torani
Where: Khan Market
Nobody can deny the opulence of a Torani creation. The label has a certain old-world charm that makes it stand out. Brides who love traditional creations with beautiful silhouettes and intricate embroideries will love Torani and should visit their store in Khan Market.
PS: They have not one, but two stores in Khan Market!
Rimple and Harpreet Narula
Where: Mehrauli, Defence Colony
If you as a bride want to channel your inner Sanjay Leela Bhansali main character (you're not alone), this brand is for you. Their traditional, opulent and larger-than-life creations are perfect for a bride who’s all about drama!
Falguni Shane Peacock
Where: Mehrauli
Falguni Shane Peacockis another option for the opulent, maximalist brides. Except, here you will also have more contemporary, glam options to choose from. If drama and maximalism is your jam and you haven't considered Falguni Shane Peacock, what are you doing?
For the romantic bride
Aikeyah
Where: Hauz Khas
Dear brides-to-be, it's almost criminal not to consider Aikeyah if your wedding mood board is all elegant, minimal and ethereal. Because their breathtakingly beautiful creations are every romantic, minimal bride’s dream.
For brides who want to explore options
Ogaan
Where: Khan Market, Hauz Khas, Mehrauli, DLF Emporio, The Dhan Mill
Ogaan is a great multi-brand store for wedding shopping. No matter what you're looking for, Ogaan has something for all kinds of brides, given that it has a plethora of brands to choose from. Another great thing is that they have a bunch of stores across different parts of Delhi.

Another great multi-brand store is Aza. They have the crème de la crème of Indian designers like Anamika Khanna, Kshitij Jalori, Rishi & Vibhuti, Rajesh Pratap Singh, Ridhima Bhasin among many, many more. So if you'd rather go to a one-stop destination for your wedding shopping as opposed to going to 10 different stores, you can't miss this one.

With two stores in Delhi, Ensemble is another great option for brides who like multi-brand stores. It has brands like Anushree Reddy, Punit Balana, Archana Jaju, and Bhumika Sharma to name a few. Safe to say, this one is a must-visit.
