What to wear to a wedding as a guest in India?

Match the event, not the couple. Sangeet and mehendi take colour and movement: a lehenga, a sharara, a bright kurta set, a printed saree. The wedding ceremony takes richer fabric and more cover: silk, brocade, a bandhgala or a sherwani for men. The reception is where you go darker and sleeker. Avoid red at a North Indian wedding and white at most of them unless you have asked. If you have the pieces already, Fluntr can lay the three looks out side by side before you decide.
