Modern South Asian brides often begin their wedding planning by looking for the perfect Indian bridal wear that reflects their style and personality. Often, this is made a priority even before selecting wedding colors, favors, cakes and centerpieces. The discerning bride-to-be then selects a wedding colour palette that complements and offsets her dress, to avoid clashing or overshadowing the beauty of her bridal lengha. A theme that is unique to the couple begins to emerge!

An important consideration in choosing the right bridal lengha is the venue of the wedding. Is it a destination wedding? Will it be held at a place of worship? Is there more than one ceremony or function? The location of the wedding will have a lot to do with the type of bridal lengha that would be suitable. Some couples choose to have a traditional ceremony followed by a reception, in which case two completely different looks may be desirable: one that embraces the beauty of Indian or Pakistani culture or family traditions and another that may be a reflection of the bride's unique style. A destination wedding may require a lighter lengha, one that is a fusion of western cuts with eastern embroidery and beadwork. The options really are endless.

South Asian brides are lucky in that there is an infinite array of colours and styles that they may choose from. They are limited only by what is available on the market and their own budgets. The traditional reds and maroons are available with anything from light to heavy embroidery, depending on the bride's preference. Shades of blue, aquamarine and sea green are also popular these days, as are lilac and rose. And of course, a fusion lengha of off-white or white with rich embroidery in silver or antique gold always looks stunning.
