Here are some tips to slay at Summer Weddings:
Summer weddings are all about sunshine, colors, cocktails—and let’s be honest, sweat. But with the right hacks and a little planning, you can look cool and feel cooler while dancing your way through sangeets, vows, and poolside pheras.
Here’s how to be the best-dressed guest without breaking a (visible) sweat:
Fabric First, Always
Your outfit shouldn’t feel like a furnace. Ditch the heavy brocades and velvet (save them for winter!) and go for:
- Breathable fabrics: cotton silk, georgette, chiffon, linen blends
- Lighter linings: nothing traps heat like thick cancan!
Color Me Cool
Choose lighter or pastel tones that reflect heat and scream summer chic:
- Powder blue, mint green, lemon yellow, blush pink, or lavender
- Metallics like champagne or rose gold for evening glam
Avoid: Deep maroons, navy, or black if the event is outdoors in daylight.
Makeup that Stays, Not Strays
Think “glow” not “melt.”
- Use a mattifying primer and setting spray
- Waterproof everything: liner, mascara, and even brows
- Blotting papers > powder piles. Shine, don’t cake!
Hair That Behaves
Humidity = hair rebellion. Tame it with:
- Braids, buns, ponytails – add gajras or hair jewels for flair
- Avoid letting hair loose if it frizzes easily
- Dry shampoo = lifesaver between functions!
Your Survival Clutch
Be the prepared glam queen. Stock your mini bag with:
- Mini deodorant
- Blotting paper
- Mint/gum
- Safety pins & fashion tape
- Phone charger (because… selfies)
Outfit Change = Gamechanger
Day event? Go light and flowy.
Night event? Bring out the shimmer with a dupatta switch or statement jewelry.
Even a kaftan or cape can elevate a look and keep you cool.
Final Tip: Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. (Coconut water doesn’t clash with couture!)
