Scroll down to check out some amazing ideas and ongoing trends. 

1. Candid Photos 

Like most things in the wedding industry, trends have a big impact on photography styles. Couples are less interested in having things look perfect and are instead more concerned with having their photographers document the day naturally and without any disruptions. Photographers have also shaped their work in a similar way, producing editorial-style wedding books for couples and putting less emphasis on poses and more on authenticity and flaws. Candid Photography is the new ongoing trend that you must follow.

2. Bridal Outfits From Homegrown Brands

Even while brands like Manish Malhotra and Sabyasachi are well-known when it comes to bridal apparel, they are not as reasonably priced as we would want. A rapid increase in the locally produced, smaller brands with a broader audience was observed at the end of 2022. And with great finesse, we anticipate this tendency to continue into 2023. Brides gravitate towards labels and designers who express their identity while remaining within their price range, from new labels to Hidden Gems.

Printed lehengas are comfortable and lightweight and have been around for a while. We know that women have already started embracing this tried-and-true practice for their pre-wedding events, so we urge future brides to give it serious consideration. You can try everything from floral lehengas to ones with chevrons and geometric motifs!

4. Destination Weddings Are Back

Following COVID, people are now traveling to all corners of the world, so it’s the wedding season when the wedding brigades fly into a wedding that’s bigger than life with a backdrop of breathtaking scenery. More than ever, couples desire to take exotic vacations and hold their wedding ceremonies abroad. People increasingly combine vacation nuptials with an intimate setting after getting a taste of intimate weddings during the pandemic.

5. Minimal Wedding Invites

Aside from eco-friendly invitations, we anticipate couples will move away from opulent and extravagant designs in favor of more understated items with a muted color scheme, cursive typography, and sparse but stylish embellishments. In 2023, couples follow minimal yet elegant wedding invitation designs over standard and luxurious ones.

6. Statement And Personalised Kaleera 

You can’t take your “kaleeras” for granted if you’re a bride-to-be who lives by the mantra “It’s all in the details.” Kaleeras actually seems to have undergone a makeover, from the ones with tassels and pom-poms to the ones that make bold style statements. Brides are now choosing unusual kaleeras that contain designs inspired by their love stories and lives as opposed to standard and simple kaleeras. And this tendency will undoubtedly gain momentum in 2023!

Brides have enthusiastically embraced the open hairstyle for weddings after seeing Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt and fashion designer Arpita Mehta leave their hair down into lush waves for their nuptials. More brides will undoubtedly choose to have their hair open for their wedding in 2023, with big curls or waves fashioned in brown tones.

8. Natural Makeup For Brides

A natural, skin-friendly look is so simple and enjoyable! In 2023, we anticipate that more brides will favor natural styles for daytime wedding events. The focus will be on caring for your skin, so brides will pay greater attention to their skincare routine. Makeup artists will apply glossy lips, light blush and mascara, a little highlighter, and light shades of foundation on brides for their daytime events.
