Wedding shopping can feel endless. Outfits are sorted early, but the finishing touches often get left to the last week: the groom’s mala, jewellery for each function, and gifts for guests. Those small items are what make the photos look complete.
Use this checklist to plan them ahead and stay within budget.
1. For the Groom (Dulha)
- ☐ Sherwani and safa (turban)
- ☐ Groom mala matched to the sherwani colour
- ☐ Brooch or kalgi for the safa
- ☐ Mojari / juttis
- ☐ A lighter mala or pendant for the sangeet and reception
The mala is the groom’s most visible accessory in photos. Pick one at least 2–3 weeks early so you can do a full outfit trial. Our groom mala guide explains how to match it to your sherwani.
2. For the Bride & Family
- ☐ Wedding day set (kundan / pearl)
- ☐ Haldi & mehendi set (meenakari / floral)
- ☐ Sangeet & cocktail set (coloured stone)
- ☐ Statement earrings for high-neck outfits
- ☐ Matching sets for sisters, cousins and bridesmaids
Buying gold for every function is costly. A good artificial set under ₹300 gives you a fresh look for each event. See our guide on artificial jewellery sets under ₹300.
3. Return Gifts for Guests
- ☐ Personalized mugs with the couple’s name and wedding date
- ☐ Small dry-fruit or sweet boxes
- ☐ Thank-you cards
Personalized mugs are a return gift guests actually use, and every sip reminds them of your wedding. Read our personalized mug gift ideas for inspiration.
