What to wear to an Indian wedding reception?
Receptions are in the evening, usually formal, and photographed from every angle. Women: a silk or embellished saree, a lehenga, or a heavy anarkali or gown; jewel tones like emerald, wine and sapphire, and embroidered pastels, both look good under stage lights. Men: a bandhgala, a well-cut suit, or a sherwani if you are close family. If your heaviest outfit went to the wedding, re-style a lighter one from an earlier function with bigger jewellery.
