Jewelry testing: Always verify gold purity with BIS hallmark
Customisation: Jaipur artisans excel at custom Gota Patti work — bring reference images

FAQs
Is Jaipur good for non-Rajasthani bridal outfits?
Jaipur excels at Rajasthani-style work (Gota Patti, Kundan, Bandhani). For Banarasi or South Indian styles, Delhi and Chennai respectively are better options.
How many days do I need for Jaipur bridal shopping?
2-3 days is ideal — 1 day for jewelry, 1-2 days for outfits and accessories. Our Jaipur wedding stylist can optimise your schedule.
