New Delhi Aug 3 (IANS) A lot of people love the thought of getting married during monsoon but there are some things one needs to keep in mind to make it a perfect affair say experts.
Kunal Rai Vice President - Weddings and Events at Tamarind Global and Saloni Sanghvi Event Specialist at Entertainment Bay list dos and don ts:
Things you should do:
* First and foremost keep the wedding indoors. Book a hotel hall or palace -- as your budget permits -- but there must be a solid roof over the head of your wedding guests.
* Treat the season as a blessing and plan a rain dance party as a pre-wedding event.
* The wedding outfit can also be matched with the theme of the season where one can opt for colours like peach subtle gold and hues of pink.
* Accessorise the wedding favours with umbrellas cute raincoats and other rain-wear gear like flip flops.
* Keep a balanced approach towards the number of hot and cold beverages.
Things you should not do:
* Monsoon is a bad time to wear make-up. Even waterproof make-up needs constant touch ups. However one can always bet on high quality water-proof make-up to last longer and make less of a mess.
* Avoid heels and stilettos. Instead opt for wedgies and even good old-fashioned jutties to go with your clothes.
* Unless you wish for the hem of your dresses to be lined with brown/black grime do not opt for floor length gowns suits anarkalis and designer dresses.
* What is a wedding without flowers? A monsoon wedding! Flowers tend to welt quickly in the humid weather so one should avoid flower-based decorations. Instead go for lightweight parachute material decorations such as drapes and gazebo. Even artificial flowers can be a great option.
