Indian weddings are all about family get-togethers with lots of naach gaana, prettiest of jewellery designs, designer outfits and delicious food. It’s the biggest day of your life and for most once in a lifetime affair. And, so planning a fairytale wedding requires proper management and execution so that everything goes just exactly the way you have dreamt off. With so much on your plate from wedding shopping, booking venues, hiring vendors to makeup trials and dance practices, it becomes practically impossible for brides -to-be to consider little things. Yes, those little things too need your attention, after all, the devil lies in the details! 

And, while it is going to be your first and perhaps the only chance to be a bride, make sure that you take care of the things that could prove very vital. 

Check out these real brides confessions about those little things that they feel could have make a huge difference at their wedding.

1. “I was so focused on doing everything by the rule book that I chose a traditional red bridal lehenga for my wedding day. Even though the colour red didn’t really suit me, I went ahead with it due to it’s quintessential feels. I totally regret it as wearing red made me uncomfortable in many ways. And, for this very reason, I haven’t been able to re-use my red bridal lehenga and probably will never do.” – Smita Jaiswal, 29

ShaadiWish Tip: Ditch the traditional reds and instead, opt for refreshing colours for your bridal lehenga. This way, you will not only set a new trend but will also be able to reuse your bridal lehenga on other occasions with different looks!

2. “ I was so consumed with the wedding planning process and my work life, that I could not make out time to celebrate my bachelorette with my girlfriends. Though, my wedding festivities included a lot of pre wedding parties where we all got drunk and had fun, it wasn’t exactly the same.” – Vani Aggarwal, 26

6.  “I regret the fact that I didn’t take makeup trials prior to my engagement. I booked a well known makeup artist and to my shock she didn’t even do my makeup herself. One of her “trained” artist did it and it was horrible! 

I had booked her for my wedding too but after my horrible engagement makeup i took a refund. I should have taken a makeup trial which could have saved me from embarrassment on my engagement. It still feels sad whenever I see my engagement pictures.” – Meghna Bansal, 26

6. “Okay, so the idea of wearing heels itself is so mesmerizing that I didn’t practically thought of carrying an extra pair of flat footwear at my wedding. And, trust me it sucks! I had to keep wearing those painful heels for more than 15 hours and at last I got tons of bruises on my foot that I could hardly walk and my husband had to literally carry me to the car during my vidai.” – Shavy Gandhi
