Here are five interesting Indian wedding themes.
Starry and dreamy
Fairytale wedding theme
For a fairytale-themed wedding, choose an outdoor location for the venue and decorate it with starry lights, grand chandeliers, and flowers resembling a fantasy world.
Construct an artificial lake with swans swimming in it.
Go for a pastel color theme and include white, pink, or peach in the decor.
The bride can select a pastel-colored lehenga and the groom can choose a beige-colored Sherwani.
Royal theme
Royal Rajputana theme
Book a heritage royal property for the venue and decorate the entire area with shields, swords, knives, and javelins.
Use vibrant colors, curtains, and drapes in the mandap decoration. Bring in live Nagada or Shehnai players along with live Rajasthani folk dancers.
For wedding jewelry, wear Rajasthani Kangan and Kada, Kundan choker necklace, Borla or Kundan butti. Add traditional Rajasthani food to the menu.
Old world charm

The bride can wear antique jewelry and arrive at the mandap in a palanquin. Let the groom arrive in a classic vintage car.
Food can be served on metal plates.
Eco-friendly

Decorate the location with coconut shells, earthen lamps, candles, glass reflectors, and oil lanterns.
The bride and groom can opt for wedding attires made of sustainable material.
Use eco-friendly cutlery like steel, wood, or ceramic, and give saplings or pots as return gifts to guests.
Adivasi style

Use logs as for seating and arrange bonfires for your sangeet and cocktail parties. Organize a live dance performance by Adivasi dancers.
The couple can go for colors like green or olive for their bridal outfits.
