Her pool party dress gave major bridal goals to contemporary women with good taste in fashion. Her sunshine floral separates complimented her dusky complexion and made up for a dressy pool soiree.

The stylish and sombre off-shoulder top with a long tail skipped our heartbeat, one at a time. Her husband was rather dressed too formally for the occasion, seen wearing an azure blue kurta with a pale blue Nehru jacket and denim. They certainly blew our minds when they clinked their rose glasses by the poolside and put up envy-worthy Insta feed.

5. Aqua Attraction

Aren’t this couple actually giving us water baby goals? Wearing aqua blue-hued attires as a pool party dress, the girl opted for ethnic while the guy swore on a casual shirt and denim-kinda look. We somehow like the newbie bride’s pool party dress that comprised of a blue floral printed saree with a matching blouse. She wore her signature Chura or auspicious bangles along with stud drop earrings and aviators to complete her chic pool look. Her husband enchanted in her beauty was dressed in a chambray blue shirt and denim.

Donning a chic and contemporary Indo-fusion ensemble for the pool party with a quirky fur wrap around her neck, we lost our heart to her EXTRA hotness. Coordinates are so in vogue these days and the long graceful tunics come with an asymmetrical style flaunting your midriff, they are paired with mid-rise wide-legged pants.

Posing pretty in a beige floor-sweeping gown, the lady graced in all her aura as she delicately curled her side-swept locks and completed her Au Naturale look with wayfarers.

The party-starter kitschy man wearing the sashay “Bride-to-Be” dressed in a street-smart casual shirt and cropped trousers. The groom wore a designer floral sherwani for the occasion, a bit too dramatic for pool party dress but we give him brownie points for a rose-tinted turban.
