Guide for a perfect 'monsoon' wedding

New Delhi: Do you dream of having a 'monsoon' wedding but are scared of rain playing a spoilsport? Just prepare a back-up plan in advance to welcome the showers, says an expert. Surruchi Joshhi, Founder and Director at wedding planning company Raas Luxury Weddings, shares a list of dos and don'ts for a monsoon wedding. Dos- * Rain proofing is an absolute necessity if you are not planning your wedding in a banquet. But a banquet should definitely be the first choice. * Seating becomes difficult to arrange in the rain, bean bag seating setup is perfect especially among youngsters. * Beautification should be done using neons, flowery drapes and ribbon decor. They will suit the ambience. * When it is monsoon, don’t shy away from having a monsoon-based theme in your stationery. Starting from your invitation cards to the giveaways, monsoon is the key to design. * Rains create a need for you to wear fresh coloured lehengas. Peach, subtle gold, rose pink, tomato red are the colours of the season. * How good is an umbrella as a giveaway to your guests? Bangles, sunshades have become common giveaways. * Your guests would need to wrap up their phones and belongings while in the rain, so arrange for plastic or rather personalised waterproof bags. Don'ts- * Your make-up should not be based on a heavy foundation. It just won't keep up. * Decorations based on warm colours are a big no-no! * Don’t have flower-based decorations, prefer parachute material gazebo, floral prints in the drape and artificial flowers. * Heels don’t go well with rains. Juttis/floral mojaris are what's in vogue. * For your mehendi, don’t go for heavy real flower jewellery, instead prefer tiaras, or gotta jewellery.
