Kaleeras

More than just decorative hangings from the wrists, they represent joy, prosperity and new beginnings. Actress Kajal Aggarwal showcased this style perfectly with the pieces she chose to wear -- tiny lovebirds holding floral twigs, symbolising love 'locked down' for a lifetime.

Maatha Patti And Veil

Giorgia Andriani pulls off this combination of regal pieces beautifully -- the maatha patti is the grander cousin of the maang tikka that gracefully frames the entire forehead. When paired with a classy bridal veil and a bold jadau necklace it's a royal look.

Not every bride desires heavy embellishment. The basic nose ring has clean lines and a delicateness about it, making sure that it doesn’t overpower the face.
