Head-to-Toe Styling Guide for the Brides Who Don't Want to Deck Up
Bridal Hairstyle
Keeping your gorgeous bridal hairstyles minimally accessorized and non-messy is your key. For your wedding day opting for a neat bun is what you should be considering. Messy buns, loose decked up braids or leaving those tresses open should be avoided as they need to be constantly managed. Having your hair in place would be a blessing. For minimally accessorizing it, have it lightly adorned with roses, or outlined with mogras or ornamented with stylish bun accessory.

Bridal Makeup
Try keeping your makeup minimal and not too flashy. Natural looking makeup that feels lighter on the skin with dewy flushed cheeks should be your go-to and is a great hassle free styling tip for brides. If you're comfortable with it then having little shimmer on the eyes wouldn't be that bad.

Bridal Jewellery & Accessories
Avoiding bulky jewellery and too many accessories is a forever hassle free styling tip for brides. Wearing lighter and smaller jewellery pieces or even skipping out on a piece or two like the huge naths, the maang tikka or the matha patti would be a great idea to miss out a load that you wouldn't want. Avoid layering up your neckpieces or bulky hand jewellery too.

See AllKaleeras
Yet another aspect of a bridal look that you can experiment with are your kaleeras. Instead of just entirely ditching them, choose smaller or floral kaleeras for yourself. Floral kaleeras are in vogue and are obviously lighter & unique while maintaining the authenticity of this traditional bridal accessory.

Bridal Lehengas
One of the best styling tips for brides who dread decking themselves up is to choose a minimal and a lightweight bridal lehenga. Decked up bridal lehengas are obviously going to be heavy which is why opting for a lighter one should be your go-to. Minimal lehengas have always been in trend and so many brides' favorite. And if lehengas are just not your thing, you can choose to slip into a beautiful Anarkali suit just like our lovely sikh brides do.

Opt for Single Dupatta

Managing double dupattas is undoubtedly going to be one helluva hassle for you which makes a single dupatta just the right option for you.
