Exchange of gifts has been an inseparable tradition of Indian weddings since coon’s age. Indian brides carry lots of stuff with her which may be her own personal belongings or gifts for the groom and his family. Her personal possessions may include make up, jewelry, clothes, and accessories and yes anything you can imagine a newly married girl would have! Packing of these worldly goods was earlier done by the family members themselves but since the times have changed and a lot of fad has been poured in the wedding ceremonies and traditions, this work is now done by experts and pros. It has now become of paramount importance that the trousseau the bride carries, reflects a style, class and a fashion.

WedAbout brings you many options out of which you can select your favorite and pick for your trousseau packing.

A. BRIDE

A newly wedded Indian bride is a pride owner of variety of jewelry, makeup and toiletries. Jewelry like bangles and ring fingers can be well displayed on decorated trays and bangle rods. A bright colored velvet (maroon or red being the first love of Indian weddings!) or a simple dull finish golden background would beautifully grace your sparkly jewelry. Makeup and Toiletries can be beautifully placed on trays lined with silk cloth and laced with net flowers, beads and scented candles.

2. Accessories in trousseau packing

The Cinderella’s footwear is definitely a thing to flaunt off! Accessories like the bride’s stilettos and wedges can be packed in baskets or trays. For the contemporary rage, one can go for a simple basket with golden silk lining on it and sheening golden beads and pressed flowers. On the contrary for a typical Indian festive look bright-colored miniatures of people carrying a bride for procession can be used.

3. Clothes

A newly wedded bride carries with her a range of garb to be adorned on different occasions in different styles. Her wardrobe may include lehengas, sarees (of all the varieties), suits, gowns, tightly fitted dresses and more. It is advisable to pack them in broad trays and/or baskets to guard the material’s delicacy.

B. GROOM and THE FAMILY

4. Accessories and Toiletries

A groom’s trousseau packing may not be as sparkly as that of the bride but a neat and an inventive presentation of it shall suffice it all. The bundle can be elegantly lit up with “manly” shades of blues, purples, violets and greys. A little of golden or silver will add the missing spark in it.

5. Clothes

It is very important to keep a balance of the frills and the content of the package in a groom’s package. The decoration should not overshadow the clothes. Decent combination of the shirt, trouser, tie or any other accessory in a package should be done to bring the best of them.

6. Gifts and Cash

Modernized weddings have opened wide options for packaging gifts and cash helping ditch the envelopes of the old times. Envelopes can be replaced by decked small boxes. To pack gifts like jewelry, velvet potlis or small wooden boxes can be used. Supas are also an affordable and a trendy way to package and present gifts.
