In their own words
I spent the whole day with Shabun and Sanya today, and I loved their company. The items they opted for me, I feel like they were excellent. They were very patient with all my demands. They were very patient with all my demands. So thank you so much. I think I had two full bags of clothing articles. I had a good time with them.
I have to say, it has been a wonderful day with StyleBuddy. I found my two dresses which I wanted to go for, and all the way to the meeting today, including the shopping services, have been great—wonderful. We've been successful, and I'm confident that I have the right dresses. Thank you for everything.
I like the way you helped me decide what is better. It's very difficult to choose nine out of twenty-five things. We did that. You showed me twenty-five things in under two hours and helped me choose six great shirts. I think I will look good.
It was great. We all had five outfits that we needed to get in about forty-eight hours, and we got all of our shopping done in one day because StyleBuddy took us exactly where we needed to go to get it all done fast.
It was Saurabh's idea because we were bringing eight of our family members to India for the first time. They've never been to an Indian event. So from the United States, they helped us pick out all our outfits for all the events and brought jewellery to match them up, and everything was even better in person once we got here.
We had a great experience at Mohey and had really incredible help from the team. They were instrumental in helping us find just what we needed, and I can't thank them enough for their patience with our very specific choices and needs. They helped us get exactly what we wanted — fulfilled the vision we had in much quicker time than we ever anticipated. We thought the process would take at least a week and that we would have to go to many different places, but this was the first place we came to and we found everything we needed. We are very particular and had an unusual sense of what we wanted, and everyone helped us fulfil our specific needs. We are very happy with the end result.

Open any section for the detail.
We start with a conversation about your wedding calendar, the cultural requirements of each function, and how the budget should split across bride, groom and family.
From there you get a store and designer shortlist for your brief, an itinerary for each city you shop in, coordination between everyone buying outfits, and follow-through on alterations until every piece is wedding-ready.
It is not one shopping trip. It is the plan that makes each trip efficient - whether you shop yourself, bring a wedding personal shopper along, or shop remotely from abroad.
Silhouette and colour family are decided per function before you visit a single store - lehenga or saree, structured or flowing, and which shades hold up in the venue lighting and season.
Stores are shortlisted by category - bridal lehenga specialists, saree houses, contemporary labels - rather than generalist shops carrying a bit of everything at a markup. Main outfits usually take a couple of dedicated sessions, with a shorter one for Mehendi and Haldi wear.
Groom shopping takes less time than bridal shopping, but it still needs a plan: sherwani or bandhgala for the main ceremony, a lighter kurta set for daytime functions, footwear that matches formality, and a palette that complements the bride's outfits instead of copying them.
Sherwanis with heavy hand work need lead time, so the anchor outfit is booked early and lighter looks follow. See groom styling for the styling side.
Parents and siblings shopping independently is the most common reason colours clash in stage photographs. Each family member gets a rough palette per function, references are shared between everyone shopping, and overlaps are flagged before purchases are final.
For styling beyond the shopping stage, see family styling.
Jewellery is chosen after the outfit's neckline and embroidery density are fixed. A heavily embellished neckline needs simpler jewellery; a plainer outfit can carry a statement set.
Jewellers are shortlisted by category - temple jewellery, kundan-polki, contemporary fusion - and footwear, clutch and hair accessories are decided last, since they are quick once the outfit and jewellery are locked.
Heavily embellished lehengas and sherwanis usually need two to three rounds: an initial fitting, an adjustment, and a final check closer to the wedding.
We track those rounds against your wedding date so alterations are not rushed in the last week, and flag pieces that need more lead time - hand embroidery, heavy zardozi - earlier in the calendar. For a first fitting, bring the base garment, the heel height you will actually wear, and any non-negotiable jewellery so the neckline and length are adjusted around them.
NRI shopping usually has to fit a single trip to India. Shortlisting, appointments and budget mapping happen before you land, so market days go into trying on and deciding.
Where a decision can be made remotely - fabric swatches over video, for instance - we make it before the trip. See NRI wedding shopping.
Every Indian wedding market mixes heritage stores, designer boutiques and mass-market outlets at very different price points, often in the same lane. Shortlisting means matching your budget and brief to the right category before you walk in.
A shopping day works better when the order of decisions is fixed in advance:
Start outfit shopping around 3-4 months out; finalise jewellery 6-8 weeks before the wedding.
Tell us your wedding dates, cities, functions and who needs help. We'll recommend the right combination of styling, shopping and coordination support for your wedding.
Every wedding is different. We first understand your wedding, who needs support, the number of functions, location and the type of styling or shopping help required. Our team then recommends the right level of support and discusses the commercial details with you directly.

This session was absolutely fabulous. I found StyleBuddy by just Googling online, and I decided to sign up for a session. I’ve had two babies in the last three years, and my body has completely changed. Everything that fit me three years ago no longer worked out. It was a seamless experience. She was able to stay within the budget I wanted, and I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone else looking for a new wardrobe.
I have to say, it has been a wonderful day with StyleBuddy. I found my two dresses which I wanted to go for, and all the way to the meeting today, including the shopping services, have been great—wonderful. We’ve been successful, and I’m confident that I have the right dresses. Thank you for everything.
We knew what we needed. We needed help, and StyleBuddy really came through. I got a beautiful pink lehenga that I have never felt so pretty in before, to wear to a wedding. I’m so happy that it worked out, because we really didn’t have a lot of time to make it happen.
I like the way you helped me decide what is better. It’s very difficult to choose nine out of twenty-five things. We did that. You showed me twenty-five things in under two hours and helped me choose six great shirts. I think I will look good.
We all had five outfits that we needed to get in about forty-eight hours, and we got all of our shopping done in one day because StyleBuddy took us exactly where we needed to go to get it all done fast.
From the United States, they helped us pick out all our outfits for all the events and brought jewellery to match them up, and everything was even better in person once we got here. It was a great experience.
We came to Delhi for our friend’s wedding and had a very short amount of time to get clothes for about five different functions. They worked with us very carefully, took us to stores that fit our individual styles, and made it happen in a forty-eight-hour time period.
We came to India and had about two days to get all five outfits for the wedding we were attending. We contacted StyleBuddy. They knew exactly who to reach out to, where to take us, and made it a much smoother experience for us.
