Are you one of those who melted over the moment when Kiara Advani kept making the gesture of pulling the thread as she made her bridal entry? The bridal entries of Bollywood weddings trend on social media for months, even after the end of the actual event.
On your wedding day, you can also create a lovely moment during your bridal entry that will turn heads and become the talk of the town (and may also go viral).
5 Bridal Entry Ideas For The 21st-Century Bride
When you can make your bridal entry feel like a dream sequence straight out of the movie, why keep it boring? Here are five bridal entry ideas for 21st-century brides to help you snatch the spotlight on your special day.
Palanquin or Palki: Experience The Nostalgia That Your Grandmom Went Through!
In the old days, brides were carried to the mandap in Palanquin or Palkis. The trend is coming back! When a palki carries the bride to the mandap, it adds a touch of royalty.
This bridal entry strikes the perfect balance between tradition and fashion. Additionally, if you have brothers and cousins excited about your wedding, they may like to give a shoulder to your Palki and carry you to the mandap.
Floral Basket: Be The Flowery Fairy Of Your Wedding!
The idea of the floral basket is very similar to that of Palki, but the shape of the carriage is different. You can have a dome-shaped flower basket like a Doli decorated with flowers to carry you to the mandap.
The idea associated with this flower-shaped Doli is the parents gifting their precious daughter to a new family.
Floral Chaddar: Be The Diva Of Your Wedding!
Bridal entry with a floral chaddar is topping the trend now! The bride walking under the floral chaddar carrying a flower bouquet or dancing with her family amplifies the joyous mode of the event.
If you are not ready to dance during your bridal entry, you can choose a song with a soft melody and walk in like a queen.
Shikara/Boat: Fulfill Your Dream Of Being The Kashmir Ki Kali
Are you having a destination wedding alongside a large waterbody? Why not take full advantage of it using a Sikhara or a boat? You can have your boat decorated with flowers to match your wedding theme. Talk to your wedding planner and share your ideas about the boat decoration.
However, this idea comes with a warning: if you are scared of being in a boat or unsure how to get out of it while managing your wedding outfit, you may skip this!
Royal-Themed Entry: Hey Queen, You Deserve It!
You can dazzle like a queen and light the event with your charming presence. While these entries are becoming a trend, nothing can beat the charm of the royal-themed entry.
Decide a dress code for your family members coordinating with your wedding outfit. They will be in a line-formation with you in the middle to look like royal guards.
Conclusion
These are some of the ideas you may implement. However, there are other varied themes that you can choose for your bridal entry. You can talk to your wedding planner to know more about such themes.
If you like minimalism and can’t share your spotlight with anyone, you can walk down the aisle alone and captivate everyone with your magnetizing presence. Or you can have your girl’s gang beside you, supporting you for each step you take in life.
No matter which one you are choosing, make sure to be confident and enjoy every moment! Because that’s the source of the brightness on the bride’s face!
