Indian weddings call for major fashion plans. Let’s face it, the bridal fashion market is not just full of a variety of bridal lehengas, blouses and veils but there is a whole world of jewellery which is often not well explored. We also understand the shopping plans, the pressure and the nervousness of the situation for brides. The fact of the matter is that we spend a lot of time on shopping for clothes, planning the venue and food, but with the changing times, something as important is jewellery and decisions pertaining to it are left on your parents. With the changing rate of gold, the whole confusion related to designs and price often lands up in becoming a hassle. But hey, that’s not actually the case. Planning helps when it comes to jewellery.

The reality is that we live in a country which is obsessed with jewellery and necklaces form an important part of the jewel drawer. We suggest there is nothing like bouncing back to traditions when speaking of necklaces. A traditional choker’s charm, rani haar’s grandeur, and timaniya ’s beauty are unmatchable.
