^ ^ Thanks darlin

I've settled on a kind of burnt red (antiquey looking color) fishtail lengha w/ gold embroidery for the morning.

The embrodiery/style will be similar to:



.. minus the extravagent headpiece and with a lighter chunni (scarf) which I would wear like a veil, but pinned further back on my head. And I'm not too sure if I should go with that style of top ^ (square neck) or with this one below (which I reeeally love as well):



As for the reception, I'm going with a saree for sure.. they're very elegant and much more comfortable then a lengha or a wedding dress. The one I'm getting is an off-white.. somewhere between a pearl & champagne color with very light silver embroidery all over it. It's BEAUTIFUL.. the only problem I'm going to have is finding jewlery to match. But perhaps my bf's mom will have some luck with that in India.

I'm totally convinced that me, my bf or someone else is going to spill their drink all over me at the reception. I think I'll bring a just in case saree.. just in case.

unbound, i like the second neckline it way more original and i think its looks more elegant. THe first neckline is overdone, i really like the second one. It doesnt really matter which one u go with cuz ur gonna look stunning no matter what!! all the best to u.

by the way i love the fish tail lenghas!!!

this sounds stupid, but all this indian wedding outfit talk makes me wanna go to sunnys bridal and pretend like im getting married. I just really wanna try the outfits on cuz they are soo beautiful.

i really like the neckline in that second picture!!
plus it will cover your tattoo nicely


that's nice

ASerrano... can you post some pix? We'd love to see them!

Unbound, I think you'd look stunning no matter what you wore, but these last few posted are just divine!

CowGirlSissy, the Indian men's attire just makes me want to rip it off them! Guess it doesn't matter if it's a tux or a well tailored men's Indian suit... sharp dressed men rock!

remember to wear a longer top that covers your tummy... ( not saying that you don't have a nice stomach), just that it's more respectful when you're in the temple... oh yah CONGRATS... When is the wedding?

are u still looking for someone that could design u a dress ? i might know of someone my friends sister let me know

I know you've already had yours made, but i saw this and it reminded me of you!

*drool*

These dresses are so gorgeous I wish I could post pics of dresses I have modelled, some of them were so much fun to wear ~ but I would have to scan them in.

I love Indian Bridal stuff, way cooler than that white dress crap

^you must terrify your boyfriend.

nope, not at all!
he's used to it by now.

It's something I'm planning on doing as a profession, so i get away with it

I really like the sleeves on that dress Sissy... but I look awful in red.

I'm so happy with my morning dress and my evening dress is halfway done... couple more weeks and it's mine

... I'm am having a little bit of an issue with making sure my tattoo stays covered (my bf thinks I should just F it and go sleeveless) but I just can't see myself in a gorgeous ivory dress with a big bright tattoo. Lol. Anybody know where I can get a flesh colored bandaid? My dress will have sleeves similar to the ones on the dress Sissy posted but off the shoulders so the bandaid would be a just in case thing.

When you have both your outfits are you going to post them in here so we can drool over them?

if not, I hope you'll PM me.

I'm dying to see.
