Dresses for Roka Ceremomy
The Big Fat Indian Wedding comes with many pre-wedding ceremonies and rituals. One such custom is the Roka ceremony. Roka ceremony is a very special day in a woman's life, its the day she gets hooked up with her soulmate. This pre-wedding function brings along lots of happiness and dreams for the bride-to-be. Being such a special day, you have to look your best as you are going to be the center of attraction. Everyone will be noticing your makeup, your hairstyle and most importantly the dress you are wearing.
Roka ceremony is an important event but not as grand as a wedding function so one has to avoid an over the top look or an over embellished outfit. Likewise a zero makeup look or a casual outfit will also not be appreciated. A balanced look is much needed so you look gorgeous with respect to the kind of occasion it is. So, here are some beautiful designs and inspirations for you to wear on roka.
1. Anarkali
My first choice would be a Floor length Anarkali. Being in vogue, available in various designs and patterns, it is one of the safest option to prefer. Its a fabulous looking and easy to carry attire for the bride-to-be. You can accessorize the anarkali with matching bangles and jewelry. High heels will add to the beauty of the dress. Take a look at these anarkalis below..
2. Silk Saree
A Silk Saree looks beautiful on almost every occasion. This timeless beauty is the most graceful traditional attire. It adds a royal touch to your personality and an elegant silk saree preferably red will buy you more complements than any other dress. Silk because it is light weight and easy to carry as most of the girls are not accustomed to wearing heavy embellished sarees before marriage.
3. Lehenga Saree
A Lehenga saree can also be an another good option for Roka. Keep your Lehengas for bigger events like wedding or reception. Rather go for a lehenga saree. These sarees are available in wonderful color combinations so you have plenty of options to choose from. This fusion dress looks superb on pre-wedding functions.
4.Ethnic gowns
Ethnic gowns are also very popular these days among brides and brides-to-be. Its a great amalgamation of Anarkali and Evening gown giving you both traditional and modern look. If you want to look different and try something new then these ethnic gowns are perfect for you. Not many accessories are needed for this dress, just add a pair of earrings and you will look gorgeous.
5. Designer Salwaar kameez
Salwar kameez can be way too casual for this function but if styled properly it can do wonders. Inspite of going for a normal salwaar or chudidaar try wearing something like patiala salwar, ankle length pants, or a dhoti with a heavily embroidered kurta. A pair of matching earrings and a maang teeka will jazz up your look. Take a glance at the pictures below to get some ideas..
