Hello there brides to be! Winter weddings are super fun, but also extremely tough on the brides. Keeping warm becomes a struggle when you want to look your best and flaunt your amazing outfits. If you’re getting married this winter, we’re sure you’re wondering how you can stay warm while keeping your fashion game strong. Here are some easy peesy winter wedding hacks to help you stay warm at your wedding.

Winter Wedding Hacks – Tips for Brides to Stay Warm

Wear Warm Leggings Under Your Lehenga

One of the easiest tricks to stay warm at your winter wedding is to wear an extra layer wherever you can conceal it. Your wedding lehenga is bound to have a huge can-can with a heavy ghera. Of course you can easily conceal a pair of leggings or leg warmers underneath it. Depending on how cold the weather is on your wedding day, you can either wear a thin leg warmer or one with fleece on the inside. You don’t even have to get a new one, simply wear any leg warmer you have because there is absolutely no chance of it being visible.

Opt for a Warmer Blouse With a Lining

While looking stylish on your wedding day is obviously going to be your priority, stying warm can go hand in hand, too. When choosing a blouse for your big day, there are some pointers you can keep in mind. Ask your designer to stitch a warm lining inside your blouse. This will keep you warm without disturbing the design of the blouse. You can even go for a full sleeve and a warmer material. You can choose warm fabrics like matka silk, raw silk or pashmina for the blouse or the lining. These fabrics are super trendy during winters and look just as good as any other fabrics. Full sleeves, too, are always in trend during winters.

Ditch Your Dupatta for a warm Stole

While dupatta is an essential element of any bridal lehenga, net or georgette dupattas don’t really provide any warmth. So for your winter wedding, ditch your usual dupatta and go for a warmer stole instead. It will keep you warm while looking stylish. Go for cashmere, velvet or pashmina materials for your stole. You can also get these customised and heavily embellished to go with your lehenga. If you don’t want to buy a new one, we’re sure you’ll find a gorgeous pashmina stole in your mom’s or grandmom’s closet. This will also add a personal touch to your look. And if you’re going for a double dupatta look, let your veil be as is and just switch out your drape dupatta for a warmer one. This is a sure shot hack to beat to cold wave.

Warm Slips Under Your Suits

This one is for all your pre and post wedding events. These events too are important and you’d definitely want to dress your best throughout the festivities. So if you’re planning on wearing suits for any of your events, a simple hack to keep warm is to wear a warm inner or slip under your suit. If your suit id full sleeves then you can easily wear a full sleeved inner, otherwise you can go for a slip, too. Again to reiterate, adding extra layers can keep you warm without disturbing the design or style of your outfits.

Opt for Closed Toe Footwear

One of the first steps to keeping yourself warm is to avoid your feet from getting chilly. If you keep your feet warm you’ll also avoid falling sick easily. Formal heels won’t look good with socks. So our wedding stylists suggest going for closed toe footwear like pumps. Juttis too, are a great option. Sneakers with lehengas are a huge trend in the fashion industry right now. So if you’re someone who loves experimental looks, wearing snocks and sneakers with your ethnic look can keep your feet warm.

Style Your Outfits with Cape or Jackets

Let some stylish capes or jackets come to your rescue. Normally capes and jackets are seen as style elements and are added to amp up an outfit. But you can use them to stay warm while looking super stylish. You can get a jacket customized for literally anything. Suits, sarees, lehengas, they all look great with capes or jackets. Get these in a warmer material and add some pretty embellishments to make them look formal for the occasion. These elements will not only keep you warm in winters, but will also work as a fashion statement and will take your whole look up a notch.

Consume a Protein Rich Diet Prior to the Wedding

Layering up or wearing warmer fabrics isn’t the only way to keep warm in winters. What you need is to feel and stay warm from within. This will help you get stronger and avoid the winter flu as well. Eating a protein rich diet in winters helps your body stay warm and healthy. Make sure you take really good care of your diet on days leading up to the wedding. Include eggs, fish, paneer, cheese, dates, jaggery in you meals. You can also have warm drinks like tea, green tea, coffee, masala milk etc to give your body the heat it needs from within. This will help you stay warm and feel comfortable on your big day.

Lastly, get Heaters Installed at the Venue

Now this one might seem a bit obvious. But it is one of the best winter wedding hacks. Now most venues do already provide heaters at the venue. But it is always safe to confirm before you make your bookings. Not just this, make sure you get them installed in all the right places. One near the stage where you’ll be sitting, one near the pooja pandal and a few spread out well for all the guests. This is the simplest and most effective way to stay warm and also make sure all your guests feel warm and comfortable.
