We all wait for wedding season to come and hope that someone we know gets married. We love getting dressed up for these weddings, especially if they are of different cultures. The chance to experience a different culture, styles of dressing, celebrations and food can make you feel super amped up, and we’re sure the fashionista in you wants to explore the styles of dressing in detail!

At a Nikkah, while guests are not expected to follow the host-families cultural norms, it is always better to dress in a way that matches the customs. It shows your friends how much you respect and value them!

So, with that in mind, we have selected some Pakistani wedding guest dresses for both women and men. You should definitely check them out if you have been invited to a nikkah!

A. For the ladies!

It is very difficult for a woman to decide what to wear to a wedding. Period. They have to keep many things in mind while picking a dress, and this conundrum of what to wear increases if you one is going to a Nikkah. Out of respect, you have to make sure you do not show too much skin and wear something traditional. Here are a few Pakistani wedding guest dresses for women that are perfect to wear at a traditional Nikkah.

1. Anarkali lehenga with a slit in front

An Indo-western lehenga with an Anarkali style choli and that touches the ground is a very beautiful choice for a Pakistani wedding. We love the intricate work on the Anarkali and the pop of the colour in the border. It gives this dress a very fun vibe. The full sleeves is what makes it a perfect addition in our Pakistani wedding guest dresses list.

2. Beige and golden lehenga

If you have ever seen Pakistani brides and guests, you know that they prefer heavy outfits with intricate embroidery work. Colours like golden and beige are very popular with them. The heavily embroidered dupatta completes the look. It is one of our favourite in this Pakistani wedding guest dresses list.

Such work and colours are perfect for a Nikkah so keep that in mind while picking your outfit.

3. Traditional Pakistani sharara

A suit never goes out of style. A classic 3-piece is perfect for men if they are attending a Nikkah. You can match the colour of your tie with your partner’s dress or if there is a colour theme, you can wear a tie to match that.
