Last Updated on October 17, 2024 by gradienteye
Destination weddings became popular since celebrities like Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli married in Italy in a fairytale setting.

This is where hiring a wedding stylist becomes super important and Styl Inc ensures that you truly shine on your big day and only have happy tears in your eyes.
Whether you are planning a royal wedding in India or exploring wedding venues around the world, a stylist ensures that everything is perfectly aligned. In this blog by StylInc, we will be discussing the importance of hiring a stylist for destination weddings.
The Unique Challenges of Destination Weddings
Planning a wedding without facing challenges doesn’t really happen at all. So to deal with these challenges, you better be prepared and at least hire a wedding stylist to take care of your whole wedding wardrobe.ย
- Unfamiliar Locations – You might not know the vendors, the venues or how to even get these if you miss out on packing something. A wedding stylist might just the local contacts and save the day.
- Logistical Complications – Communication with people from different time zones and languages might be tricky to handle, not just abroad but in India as well. A stylist might just figure out a way to do it all for you.
- Unexpected Weather – We are not an expert when it comes to choosing a fabric according to a certain weather but a wedding stylist ticks all the boxes before finalising your wedding outfit.
Why You Need a Professional Stylist
Let’s discuss a few points and then you will be like I definitely need a wedding stylist for sure.
- Design Expertise – Wedding stylists are basically the trendsetters and might just start a new trend with you. Whether you want a classic look, a royal look or an aesthetic Pinterest vibe look, they will make sure everything is on point.
- Jewellery and Accessory Coordination – A wedding stylist can just pick up a piece of cloth and turn it into a masterpiece or an outfit that you have been dreaming of. They know what to get and from where to get it for you. From minimalist jewellery for a beach wedding to royal jewellery for a palace wedding, they can do it all.
- Outfit Coordination for every event – Imagine after you are done with your wedding, in your wedding pictures, everything looks disconnected. But a wedding stylist ensures that all the outfits and everything is well coordinated for both bride and groom and sometimes the family too.
Role of a Stylist in Pre-Wedding Planning
Here is what a wedding stylist brings to the table,
- Understanding Your Preferences – After several consultations, a wedding stylist will decide the theme that you like for the entire wedding and design the outfits accordingly.
- Curating the Looks – Indian weddings are filled with different functions. A wedding stylist will opt for a lighter, flowy outfit for an outdoor sangeet by the beach or a heavily embroidered lehenga for a grand ballroom reception.
- Choosing the Colour Palette – A wedding stylist will opt for pastels and lightweight fabrics that work beautifully for a summer wedding, while jewel tones and velvets are stunning for winter or palace weddings.

How a Stylist Enhances the Wedding Experience
Let’s say a couple from different cultural backgrounds is getting married to each other. A stylist will ensure that the outfit designs donโt hurt anyoneโs sentiments. A stylist can also add some local cultural elements to your look. Suppose you are getting married in Kerala, opt for temple jewellery, or a palace in Jaipur then opt for royal jewellery, or long trail dupatta, or a beach then opt for intricate flowers, they will add the elements accordingly.
