What to Wear for a Kerala Wedding: A Guest Guide

Kerala weddings often span several events, each with its own dress code. Here's a quick guide to getting it right.

The ceremony

Silk or kasavu sarees are the safest, most respectful choice for the main ceremony — rich but not overly bright.

The reception

This is where georgette, organza or designer sarees come out — brighter colours and more embellishment are welcome.

Sangeet or pre-wedding events

Anarkalis, lehengas or party-wear sarees work well for the more festive, dance-friendly events.
