    NRI Guide: Planning Your Indian Wedding from Abroad

    Feb 15, 20267 min read

    Planning an Indian wedding from overseas is a unique challenge. Between time zones, limited India visits, and unfamiliarity with current markets, NRI families often feel overwhelmed. Our NRI wedding shopping service was built specifically for you.

    The NRI Wedding Shopping Challenge

    Most NRI families get only 1-2 trips to India before the wedding. That's not enough time to visit multiple cities, compare designers, attend fittings, and coordinate the entire family's wardrobe.

    How Virtual Consultations Bridge the Gap

    Our virtual consultation service lets you start planning months before your India trip:

  1. Video call sessions to discuss style preferences, body type, and cultural requirements
  2. Digital mood boards with curated options from Indian designers
  3. Shopping links with pricing for pre-approval before the India visit
  4. Measurement guidance for preliminary sizing
