GROOMS!!!!

hi guys.

a lot of the conversations are gered towards the brides.

ladies, your all beautiful and i know that the centre of attention will be you, but lets face it, you have to have some kind of attention for the grooms.

after all, its them that set you off and complete the whole matrimonial story.

just wanted to get some ideas for grooms dresses and general menswear on Mehndi, Baraat and Walima.

heres some ideas.

what you think guys?

please also give ideas for karoli etc aswell.

many thanks.

Re: GROOMS!!!!

wat's karoli?

btw i am glad a groom is taking interest in these things too :) after all the bride and groom both shud luk good on their big day.

Re: GROOMS!!!!

EXACTLY!!!

karoli? errr.... uhm.... its when the sisters hold a pot kind of thing over their head and the groom bathes with the water? i think?

Re: GROOMS!!!

Its quite simple for guys.
For Mehndi & maiyon its Kurta pyajama/chudidar
For Wedding:- Sherwani
For Valima:- Suit

Here are few pics













Re: GROOMS!!!!

oh ok...never heard of it before. is it a pakistani tradition?

Re: GROOMS!!!

I love her pink and green outfit, does anyone know where I can get it??

Btw sorry bradiboi going off-topic..

Re: GROOMS!!!

its quite allright Deeba LOL.

Kurtha Pyjama for Mehndi, Sherwani for baraat and suit for walima is getting a bit standard really. heres what i had in mind.

Mehndi - thats obviously gonna stay the same but was thinking wth a twist. instead of wearing a parna, how about a coloured cravat to match the shawls the grroms boys will be wearing?

Wedding Day - i agree with sherwani but about fushion sherwani where its a mix of asian and english designs?
e,g,

Walima - what about this

Re: GROOMS!!!!

Hi Guys...

hope everyone's doing good here... well, i'm gettin married Insha'Allah in March... mehendi & barat's dresses are already sorted out... it'll be a purple kurta on mehendi (bride's wearin purple as well) & for barat it'll be a black sherwani...

i'm confused for the valima ceremony... the brides dress is off-white with brown/bronze embroidery on it (i have seen it, thats y i'm not too sure for the colors). What combination should i be wearin ? i'm thinkin of a 3 piece suit but confused for the color combination... please advise...

Re: GROOMS!!!!

Hi All,

So glad to hear some groom talk! I'm trying to help my honay vala pick the perfect shervani for his style, but he's never really thought about it before and has no idea what he wants! Any one have any recommendations on stores/boutiques to check out in the greater Toronto area? We are looking for pakistani designs. We both agree that the indian designs are way over done for our taste...

Thanks!

Re: GROOMS!!!!

i have a question!!

If a bride is wearing orange on her mehendi what colour is the groom to wear? my fiance is quite stocky and will be quite muscley by the mehendi ... i always thought coloured kurta's suited tall skinny boys.. my fiance is average height but stocky!

Re: GROOMS!!!!

simple thing to do is to wear a black suit with an off white shirt and matching bronze/brown tie. or for more a subtle look, change the black suit for a light grey one so its not too overpowering.

[/QUOTE]

if the guy is stocky then dark colours look better. coloured kurta i think suits everyone whether they are short or tall, thin or fat but depends on the actual colour itself. if the bride is wearing orange then i would say the groom should wear either matching colour kurta or a white kurta with a matching parna or shawl around his neck. i know i may have contradicted myself by saying white (considering i said wear light colours) but the contrast would set it off well.

Re: GROOMS!!!!

Can someone post pictures of Mehndi (Shalwar Kameez) and Shaadi (Sherwani - ne colour.. black/cream/white) outfits for guys?

PLEASE guppies! I need help cuz my fiance cant be bothered to look!!!
