Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

firslty congrats on your upcoming wedding

may allah bless you with a happily married life, and to your question

No i dont think it has to be yellow it depends on you r family and traditions i guess. but the fashion has changed people tend to wear yellow with a whole laod of other colours of just wear another colour. so it is reallu upto u .

again with letting the hair down and jhoomar thing you can do that , but again depends on your family and tradition. in my family i dont think they would approve of me letting my hair down it would have to be tied and i would have to wear a dupatta on my head.

Hope that helps

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

hmmmm wel actually yeah yelow will look really
good on the mehndi day bcoz thats the tradition my family does

i think tika is better no jhoomar

my sister wore a necklace set with earings matching to her dress thats it

no tika or jhoomar

congrats to ur engagement

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

Well yellow is very traditional color..yellow with turqoise or green or red or pink or purple or any other multi...yellow and turqoise/aqua/blue is the trendiest combo as of right now.. but if you dont' want that, u can wear hte outfit you got.. OR you can save it for your jahez if you want to.. i don't think ppl in khi will be shocked or anything, and I think that color combo would look nice, it'd be very refreshing and nice change

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

it's totally fine to wear something other than yellow. actually i think because we're abroad many of us cling to the more traditional stuff out of nostalgia. over in pakistan the styles are constantly changing and people try all sorts of different fashions and colors.

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

You should absolutely go with the blue outfit.
Yellow is the traditional color for mehndi but if
I were you and wanted to wear another color then
I wouldn't care what the family/people thought.

It's your wedding and you should be able to pick
the colors that you want.

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

it could be mehndi ya angoor green with a little bit of gota kanari.

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi???

no it doesnt have to be yellow…my sisters planning to wear a real nice baby pink looong dress from Moonsoon…with silver embroidery round the neckline and sleeves…dats…soooo simple and elegant…:love:

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

it dusnt really hafto be yellow the trends r changing it just hafto have the cultural and mehndi look so dont worry abt tht and abt jhoomar i wouldnt go with it on mehendi as that would look very heavy and bridal try to keep it simple on mehendi flower jewlery or a tika would be a better option and keeping ur hair open wouldnt look tht good either that is with sharara a paranda or a braid would look better

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

correction, Yellow is the tradtional color for Mayoon
For Mehndi its Green :)

But you can wear anything you want, maybe you can co-ordinate the color theme with yellow or green to get that Mehndi ambience

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

yeah i thnk u should wear wat u want,offcourse yellow n green r traditional colors but u can also add these 2 colors with ur favourite one like blue ect.i wore orange shirt with multi colored chori dar pajama n yelow duppata,,so i displayed traditional look as yellow duppata but also i changed dat old theme with other colors,,now adys ppl like to wear pink with yellow or blue with yellow,,,n jhommer i thnk it wud b a gr888 idea n i also seen it somewhere,,really preety looked.All the bst.

Well,i think you should follow your heart,its your Big Day,You like Yellow wear it or if you wanna go with some other colour go 4 it,dont think too much no matter which colour you choose as long as you r happy with your wedding.20% people will look at your dress colour and the rest will look only at the happiness and glow of your face.
Now a day in Pakistan jhoomer on mehndi is very in, no one wear tikka.I think jhoomer is better option.
Best of luck 4 your Big Day
takecare.

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

i wana see how it looks wearing jhoomer on mehndi with ur hair down ? has any one got any pictures?

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????


Traditionally, brides themselves stayed in their yellow clothes until the wedding. So for the bride, the traditional color IS yellow.

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

yea does anyone have pics of a bride with their hair down and the dupatta on top? sounds interesting....

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi????

Re: Dus it have 2 be Yellow 4 d mehndi???

well i wore a gharara of all the multi colours…so it wud go with wot all the girls were wearing…the top was a tight yellow kurta and duputta was yellow double shaded with one of the colour sin the gharara…we opted for turquiose blue…it looks soooo good…so bright and the pix came out great as u can see…:halo:
