What to wear to an Arab friend's wedding/mehndi?

Re: What to wear to an Arab friend’s wedding/mehndi?

I am not sure what arabs would wear to a mehndi party but for weddings, they usually wear dresses. my best friend got married to an arab guy recently and her inlaws were all wearing western dresses pretty much. And all the pakistanis from her side were wearing pakistani clothes, me and some other friends wore sarees to her wedding. So you can wear pakistani clothes to this event as well, dont necessarily have to wear western dress. pakistani shlwar kameez or saree looks lovely for these events and arab ladies like it too. and since this is bollywood inspired, a sari or desi clothes will be prefect. no need to tone down, its your close friends wedding.
