✈️ Destination Wedding Outfit Tips

  • Think fabrics that breathe: Chiffon, georgette, organza, and light silks are your friends.

  • Pre-styled wins: Pre-stitched sarees, co-ord sets, and kaftans are easy to wear and pack.

  • Stick to 2-3 accessories: Minimal but bold — think statement earrings or a sleek potli.

  • Roll, don’t fold your outfits to avoid creases. Always carry your main look in cabin luggage!
