Re: What to wear 
For the engagement party, you have the following options. Please remember that you should pick an outfit that you feel you are comfortable with. The actual day is not for experimentation, so try on a few options before actually deciding what to wear.
- Option A - Saree – drape in contemporary and fashionable styling.
- Option B - English Evening Gown or a Malay engagement dress.
- Option C - Long shirt with trousers.
- Option D - Peshwaas
- Option E - Light lehnga (Choose this if you are having a biggish party with more than 150 ppl).
Other things to consider:
- Henna/Mehendi on your hands and feet.
- Jewelry – necklace, bangles, anklets, finger rings, earrings, pendant complementing the outfit.
- Shoes – with small heel, decorated beads, stones or colorful straps.
- Flower garlands esp. of roses.
- Light makeup.
- Elegant party hair styling.
If you think that you still can’t handle the pressure or need more info, hire a planner who is well versed with Malay Indian weddings/engagements. I found these but I have no idea about your exact location:
