Buying your trousseau just before your D-day could be hurried and exhausting, and not to mention expensive because you have to grab whatever you can lay your hands on in a hurry.
However, if you start your trousseau hunting a few months before your wedding, chances are you will end up with the best deals to look like a princess...
More often than not we have a preconceived notion that a limited budget won't buy us quality clothing. Surprisingly, in a budget of Rs.50, 000 - Rs.75, 000, you can fit in a dream wedding outfit, an elegant evening dress for the sangeet (music night) or mehendi ceremony and a cocktail dress as well!
A beautiful ghagra choli or a heavy silk saree for the wedding ceremony from a designer showroom will cost around Rs.25,000.
An elegant salwaar kameez or an indo-western outfit for the mehendi ceremony or sangeet will cost anywhere between Rs.10,000 - Rs.15,000. This sum can buy a fancy outfit, which will be perfect for a combination of the two functions. For a simple mehendi ceremony, you can go for a simpler outfit that will cost less, say around Rs.5,000 to Rs.7,000.
An evening gown will be perfect for the cocktail party you plan to throw for your family and friends. A stunning gown, either tailored or bought readymade, can be yours for about Rs.15,000.
Pick up shoes, handbags and other accessories in neutral shades such as gold and silver to go with many outfits. Two to three pairs of shoes with matching handbags to go should cost you around Rs.10,000.
