Red Dupatta/Ghoongat during Nikkah.

Hi everyone!

I was just wondering if any of you are aware if they still do this with the brides today, with the whole ghoongat thing over her head on the nikkah…
Do they still do this in Pakistan, I think it’s not that bad and kinda cute too…
Any pictures of this would be very nice if you could share.
Any replies would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: Ghoongat

personally i think it looks nice and modest but about others i havn't seen ghoongat on anyday its just that they keep pushing it back

Re: Ghoongat

i hav seen some brides with a western veil kinda thing in maching material with the brial dress in some light tissue or net kind of mateiral// .. uff i looked sooooooooo haseen and magical

i think ghungat is the prettiest of all bridal things..

Re: Ghoongat

^ I agree I think its so beautiful too.

Re: Ghoongat

i've seen brides who the the ghungat and then after the nikkah is over and stuff they get it pushed back but that may be hard

Re: Ghoongat

You can have your dupatta pinned back a bit and then put another dupatta that matches the outfit over as a ghoonghat. I've seen this done. If you get it done professionally, it will not move and so you can have it both ways...

Re: Ghoongat

have u seen,any bride wearin the ghoongat all the time on the Barat,(thru out the function) like wen ur fully dressed with lehnga, make-up,jewel stuff.But the ghoongat/veil should be a see thru material,like net or tissue as said b4.cz i've seen loadz of brides wearin it for the Nikkah only or may b wen they enter the Hall but take it off as soon as they sit on the stage.
i mean the priety zinta look in veer-zaara, i jus loooooove it :@:, wen she enters as a dulhan wearin that Red garaarah.

Re: Ghoongat

may be in the movie they've shown aswell that she'z wearin it for the Nikkah time only, but guppies tell me how will it look if worn thru out the function, Barat.

Red Dupatta during Nikkah.

Here i am once again for ideas :slight_smile: and thanks to everyone else who have helped me on last few threads.

I am getting my Nikkah done on the Mehindi day. I always imagined myself wearing red dress but unfortunately it will be type of Mehindi dress color- not sure yet. So i was thinking of having a red dupatta on my head over my mehindi dress during nikkah time. and then take it off.
I need some ideas!! here’s a few i got from other thread but not sure if it will look good with a green dress underneath it.

Re: Red Dupatta during Nikkah.

why don't you add a bit of red into your green dress? red and green look great together! I had a lehnga made that was green, and a red long kameez on top, you could switch the two or just wear green and add some red karhai onto it...

yeah it's a good idea, the only thing is i am gonna be wearing a Red wedding dress the next day. So, it wont look much different.

Plus, don't Brides normally cover their head with a another Dupatta during nikkah?

The pishwas is wonderful; I dont know if i can get an exact copy of it!

Re: Red Dupatta during Nikkah.

please dont have a red plain dress it loks really tacky... add green n red and shocking pink looks good...

Re: Red Dupatta during Nikkah.

^ to each their own! if she wants all red, no harm in that, eh?

**Poddy; i have no idea what combo it will be with since my MIL is getting it from pak. all i know that its red. Although, Red with gold work looks traditional. anyhow, Thanks for the advice

SGC: Thanks for the link: i love her dress.
