1. Pink and Orange

Fuchsia pink and flaming orange has been a trending wedding outfit combination for a long time now, and rightly so. If its mehndi outfits you are choosing, you can opt for a lighter pink and a subtler shade of orange that will beautifully shine through when the sun comes out. You can choose a simple skirt and blouse, a lehenga, a saree or even a one-piece flowy gown in this combination. Delicate thread, mirror or Gota Patti work further compliments this colour combination. You can add contemporary Gota Patti jewellery to add to your stylish yet classic ensemble.

2. Sunshine Yellow with a Hint of Turquoise

A plain sunshine yellow saree with a bolder turquoise blouse and border makes for one of the most effortless mehndi outfit combinations. It’s the perfect balance between simple and stunning. If blue is not your colour, you can also combine a yellow saree with a rani pink, emerald green or a burnt orange blouse and border. Mehndi outfits are always more stunning when the primary colour is vibrant and nothing speaks of vibrancy like a happy yellow. Accessorise with white mogra flower jewellery and you are all set to strike a pretty pose.

3. Pretty Peach and Mint Affair

Peaches and Mint have become a hot favourite amongst modern day brides for the grace and charm these colours add. Mehndi outfits in a combination of pastel shades of peach and mint make a stunning combination. A peach and mint combination lehenga or saree, with delicate thread work in burnt gold or Swarovski work, with a statement jewellery set, is great for both daytime and evening Mehndi functions. If your mehndi function is followed by a Sangeet or cocktails, this is also one of the most versatile combinations that work through the day and night.

4. Mehndi Green and Yellow

When you think of classic mehndi outfits, a mehndi green and yellow is the first pick. Well, it’s called mehndi green for a reason, right? This combination works great for salwar suits, lehengas and even a simple skirt and blouse. Delicate gold thread embroidery or even colourful embroidery can make this the quintessential mehndi outfit.
