If you are getting married this summer, you definitely would not want to be seen with cakey makeup, sweaty look, and heavy traditional wear and jewellery, which will ultimately make you look all irritated in your wedding photos.

#1. Choose cool summer shades

High-end bridal wear does not necessarily mean that you have to go for deep, dark and rich colour tones like red, maroon, mauve, etc. If you are getting married in the summer, go for more unconventional, cool and soothing shades, like strawberry ice, custard, aquamarine, toasted almond, and other pastel shades. Icy cool or earthy shades are your best pick if you wish to flaunt the sultry look.

If you are getting married in the hot, stuffy weather, you must focus on soft and lightweight fabrics such as chanderi silk, crepe, net, chiffon, satin, and other flowing fabrics. Extremely easy to carry, these fabrics are meant for modern-day brides who prefer light and breezy silhouettes. Sheer silks and organzas are always better than heavy brocades in the hot weather. These fabrics allow your skin to breathe and are easy to manage too. These fabrics will make you look carefree, and fluid silhouettes always add an extra feminine charm.

#3. Forget heavy embellishments

A growing trend among girls getting married in the hot season is to opt for lightweight embellishments and embroidery rather than a patchwork, beads, heavy laces, zardozi, etc. In order to have a complete relief from the heat and the consequent sweating, summer brides must stay away from too much bling. Instead, use shimmer, rich fabrics, pops of colours that give a rich look. Otherwise, you could also choose to have just a heavily-embellished border for your outfit rather than having it all over. Away from all the discomfort and sweat, this will make you look dewy-fresh in the photos too!

#4. Go for the fusion trend

The biggest concern during summer weddings is makeup! Every summer bride’s mind is filled with questions like, "Will my makeup stay all night long?", "Will sweating lead to a cakey base?" and "Is my T-zone going to shine like a night bulb?". Also, many brides are confused that why they should go for airbrush instead of normal HD makeup.

Well, here are some of the important makeup tips and tricks that every summer bride should keep in mind, to look flawless on her special day!

  • To keep your makeup flawless throughout the wedding ceremony, go for airbrush makeup. Although it is a bit expensive, it lasts longer and is perfect for oily skin! Also, ask your makeup artist (MUA) to use the matte primer prior to make-up for a perfect finish!
  • Don't get hairstyles with flicks if you are getting married in the summer season. If there are too many hair on your face, it will not only give you an untidy look, but you will also start sweating. Instead, try and keep your hairstyle as tidy as possible.

  • Cream-based makeup tends to make your skin look oily and patchy. Instead, tell your makeup artist to use powder products for a flawless and neat look. Powder-based makeup products don’t make you sweat, making it last longer.
  • Say no to gloss this summer season, it is a big no, as they have a risk of bleeding! Ask your makeup artist to give you a matte look. Go for matte lips and matte eyes, instead of gloss! Also, don’t forget to use loads of waterproof mascara to open up your eyes.
  • Last but not the least, don’t forget to use a setting spray to make sure the makeup is set for the night! Setting sprays suit all skin types, making your bridal look last longer. Also, keep your touch-up kit handy, so that you can look fresh even during pheras. Your touch-up kit should include blotting sheets, compact powder, deodorant, kohl and lipstick.

Finish off your look with elegant, statement jewellery pieces that complement you and not weigh you down. That’s it! You are all set to be the most stunning and sexy summer bride of the season.
