Punjabi weddings are known for the shor-sharaba, dranks and unmatched levels of happy dancing. The excitement and energy are quite infectious if you ask us. While some might deny, (but everyone knows deep down in their hearts) that a large part of the focus at any kind of wedding is the bride. Everyone looks forward to seeing how she will adorn herself, what colour she’ll choose and even want in on details about her makeup and mehendi.

We’re currently obsessing over Punajbi brides and the stunning elements they wear at their weddings. Yes, we’re talking about the chooda, the bold maangtikkas and more. From choosing to experiment with eccentric colours, layering their jewellery and making heads turn with their beauty—we’ve picked some of our favorite Punjabi brides. Check it out below.

Bold & Bright

Brides are thought to always be shy, meek and gentle, but when we saw this bride in maroon and gold we couldn’t help but double-tap.

Monotone Win

We love how this modern bride has moved over from the mix-and-match phase to going completely monotone. The unusual shade of navy is a welcomed change!

Floral Bloom

Who says that dupattas only have to be made of cloth? This bride decided to be unique in every way with a handmade floral (in its truest meaning) dupatta for her mehendi.

Majestic Mint

Who knew that a stunning colour like this one would ever make it to bridal wear? We’re totally into the details of this bride’s ensemble—From the colour, to the fringe details and the intricate gold embroidery too.

Classy Double Dupatta

Why wear one dupatta when you can strut in two? This bride wore a beautiful combination of orange and gold with two contrasting double dupattas that made her stand out.

Peach Perfection

The multi-strand mathapatti and choice of a subtle colour like peach makes for a perfect day wedding, don’t you think?

Seafoam Surprise

We’re learning how to go OTT yet keep it classy with this bride. The bold jewellery and choice of a light colour are a winning combination.
