An article by Sanika Singhi

An Indian wedding is a kaleidoscope of vibrant rituals, rich traditions, and of course, dazzling diamonds. Each event in this multi-day spectacle is an opportunity to adorn oneself in exquisite jewels, transforming the bride, family, and guests into shimmering stars against a backdrop of joyous celebration.

Let's embark on this sparkling journey:

Mehndi

As henna swirls on the bride's hands, diamond bangles and rings dance along with her fingers. The females of the family grace themselves with a traditional 'maang tika' – a diamond accessory adorning the forehead, symbolizing prosperity. Traditional designs feature stones and pearls with a cluster of diamonds, while modern brides might opt for more intricate patterns. The necklaces worn by the bride are light weight which exuberates comfort, style and elegance.

Turmeric paints the bride and groom in joyous hues. Jewellery takes a backseat, allowing the vibrant yellow to take centre stage, but a simple diamond nose pin, symbolising marital status, might peek through. Some even wear small diamond studs and simple rings for this ceremony. Whereas the father of the bride and all the other men in the family wear rings as shown below.

The pre-wedding festivities ignite with the 'Sangeet,' a night of music and dance. The bride shines in a glamorous outfit, accentuated by a classy diamond necklace with matching earrings. A perfectly fitted necklace adds a touch of regal grandeur to the neckline.

Diamond-studded necklaces come in various styles, from simple bands to ornate designs with multi coloured gemstones and pearls.
