A Traditional Wedding Outfit
When it was
I'm going to talk about a traditional outfit I wore for a wedding last year. It was during the summer, in late June, and the wedding was held in a beautiful countryside location.
What you wore
The outfit was a traditional Indian saree, which was a stunning deep red color with intricate gold embroidery all over it. The fabric was a rich silk that felt incredibly smooth and luxurious. Along with the saree, I wore matching gold jewelry — a necklace, earrings, and bangles — that complemented the outfit perfectly.
Why you wore it
I chose to wear this outfit because it was my cousin's wedding, and in our culture, it's customary to wear traditional attire for such occasions. The saree was actually a gift from my mother, who wore it at her own wedding. Wearing it not only adhered to the cultural norms but also added a personal sentimental value to the occasion.
And how you felt about it
Wearing the saree made me feel deeply connected to my roots and family traditions. It was also incredibly flattering and made me feel elegant and confident. The weight of the silk and the finery of the embroidery made the whole experience feel very special. It was a bit challenging to manage such an elaborate outfit throughout the day, but the joy and the compliments I received made it all worthwhile. The outfit was a significant part of the celebration, and it enhanced the festive atmosphere of the wedding.
