The haldi ceremony is an auspicious part of Hindu weddings, marking the beginning of a new life. It's one of the most enjoyable events for both the bride and groom, as well as their guests. During the ceremony, the bride is adorned with haldi, oil, and milk—ingredients considered beneficial for the skin and believed to ward off negative energies.

The bride's haldi outfit should be both eye-catching and comfortable, allowing for easy movement since it's like a fun version of Holi with haldi! While yellows and mustards are the go-to colours, feel free to explore other vibrant shades, as many attendees will likely don yellow as well. Check out these 11 haldi outfit ideas that will make your special day even more memorable!
