Post PINK or PURPLE colored engagement/Walima dresses!

Pink OR purple… not a combo of both! My future MIL called and asked what colors and style id like for my engagement dress, and i decided i want a pale pink and ___some other color combo, or a purple and ____some other color combo.

I REAAAALLY would love yalls help! I dont wear pakistani clothes often so im pretty clueless when it comes to the latest fashion and styles.. So i reaaaally wanna research before i call her back!

Hey girl! Congrats on the wedding plans! :)

For a pale pink suit, I would recommend a sparkling colour that would bring out the subtleness of the pink. I'd say a gold, or even a light bronze. I think silver could make it look icy and kinda tacky! If you want it to be colourful and also tasteful, I'd say a darker, warm pink would also look good when contrasted with the light pink.

For a purple suit, I love the combination of bottle green and deep purple! I think it looks so regal, especially when the material is some sort of silk (raw, banarsi, etc). Apart from that, purple looks good with azure blue, it's looks so refreshing!

Out of interest, whereabouts in Dallas are you? I went to Plano, Dallas a couple of years ago, and I loved it there! I'm considering a permanent move in the future, IA! :)

Re: Post PINK or PURPLE colored engagement/Walima dresses!

i think purple and dark gold/caramel looks beautiful. here’s a video of a bride in a purple and gold lengha. its a really heavy lengha but u can get an idea of the colour combo

You’re very welcome! :slight_smile:

Actually my khaala lives in Plano, so she had us go over there for a big family reunion! We met her lovely circle of desi families, and one of them was even having her son’s wedding, so we were invited! It was one of the best wedding I’ve ever been to! The Valima was at The Doubletree Hotel, and the decorations and arrangments they had organised were beautiful! :smiley:

Plus, the houses is Dallas are HUGE, and with swimming pools! Over here in England, even a semi-detached is considered a good sized house! :bummer:

If wayyy in the future there’s an opening for a dental job, I am there! :smiley:

Heres one…

I think this color combo looks so pretty!
