What to wear at your brother or sister’s wedding ?

Every year, a beautiful fall season brings an extravagant Indian Wedding season with it. A season of family get-togethers, loud music, gleaming lights, and surprisingly amazing outfits for functions like Haldi, Mehndi, Cocktail, Sangeet, Wedding, and Reception.

We at KARAN MOIN have curated special collections for each celebratory event, because when the wedding is in your own family, choosing the right outfit should never be an obstacle to your dream wedding.

Haldi: Typically, Haldi is a day function and requires one to wear the Indian outfit, Kurta Pajama. Being one of the lighter functions, a kurta pajama allows you to have the much-needed mobility during the day while keeping you in the traditional indian theme. Wear with a Nehru jacket to add another layer of sophistication to the outfit, or opt for a Sherwani-Cut Kurta, providing a subtle but clear distinction from the traditional outfit.

The preferred colours for this function are Yellow, Orange, Ivory, Peach, and Pink.

Mehendi: Similarly to the previous function, Mehendi is also an intimate function, usually held during the day. A Kurta Pajama will be the preferred outfit for the occasion, providing you with the much-needed mobility during the day while keeping you in the traditional indian theme.

The preferred colours for this function are Earthy tones - Green, Beige, Brown, etc

Cocktail: This western classic has become a staple in Indian weddings. Often referred to as the night for dancing and partying, this black tie event features a Tuxedo or a western suit. Keep it classy with a solid velvet tuxedo or stand out with an embroidered piece, maintaining cohesion with the bling and gravitas of the night.

Sangeet: A sangeet is a vibrant pre-wedding celebration featuring music, dancing, and performances by family and friends from both sides. This event adds an Indian twist to the traditional cocktail night.

Embracing the cultural fusion, the preferred choice of outfit for this function will be an Indo-Western, an elegant fusion of Western class with our rich Indian heritage.

    Wedding: The Big Day is finally here. Everything before this has been building up to this day. So naturally, your wardrobe should also reflect the importance of the day.

    We divide the wedding day into two categories:

    Groom: A traditional Indian Sherwani showcasing our rich heritage is a must for the man of the hour. Typically worn in neutral colors such as ivory, cream, champagne, and gold, the groom also has the option of switching it to black and midnight blue shades for a perfect nighttime statement piece. Always worn with a stole and jutti featuring the same handwork as the sherwani, adding another layer of depth and completing the outfit.

    Non-Groom: By Non-Groom, we mean the family or friends surrounding the bride and groom. A traditional achkan will be the go-to choice. Keeping it classic maintains a subtle distinction from the groom. Additionally, elevate the timeless piece with a beautifully embroidered stole, complementing the colours of your achkan.

    Reception: Normally, a post-wedding celebration is held at night. The traditional outfit for the event is a Bandgala suit, but sometimes a western 2-piece or 3-piece suit also works.

    Important tips for you before deciding on your perfect outfit!

    We understand your joy when your cousin/sibling is getting married. Your excitement is natural about what to wear to your brother or sister’s wedding because all this time, you had only joked about their wedding in the past, but it is not a joke anymore; it is genuinely happening. So it’s equally as sentimental as it sounds exciting!

    But there are certain things that you should keep in mind while picking up the outfit for that most-awaited day, and here we’re to help you with it!


    #Avoid Overdressing: It's best to pick the outfit in accordance with the theme of the wedding. Don't over-accessorize your look, as you would not want to overshadow the groom on his wedding day. So try to keep your style simple and elegant.

    # Dress comfortably: If you’re brother to the groom, then you must choose your outfit keeping in mind that you’ll be a part of the baraat and will have to dance for hours. On the contrary, if it’s your sister’s wedding, you will be too busy with the khatirdaari of the baraatis for you to pull off a massive outfit. Thus, in any case, pick a comfortable yet dapper outfit that’ll align with your personality.

    # Choose the right fabric: Here at Karan Moin, we have the best of the best fabrics in an extensive range, so that you can have the choice to not only choose what we have designed but also what you want to add or subtract according to your liking. We then have a team of expert fashion and wardrobe consultants who help you to choose wisely and in accordance with the function, today’s trends, and your own personal style.

    # Right Fitting is crucial: If you have the best of the best fabrics with the best of the best accessories to go along, it will still not be enough. All of these, without good tailoring, mean absolutely nothing. The importance of a good fit cannot be overstated. In the same situation, if you have subpar fabric and average accessories to go along, but your fit is impeccable, the outfit on you that day will look amazing. “A good fit supersedes fine quality of fabric.”

    We all love Indian weddings for their grandeur, celebration of colour and style. [Follow our suggestions & wear that perfect classy & elegant look to reflect your emotion.] With these pointers, wear clothes that reflect the happy and momentous occasion that an Indian wedding is all about. Have fun and do everything, including dancing and participating in the festivities of your favourite sibling’s wedding!
