Bridal jewellery is one of the biggest purchases a family makes. A little planning — what you need for each event, the karat, and the weight that fits your budget — makes it far easier.
The core bridal set
- Necklace or rani haar (often a choker plus a long haar)
- Earrings / jhumkay
- Maang tikka and jhoomar (passa)
- Nath (nose ring)
- Bangles and karras
- Rings
By event
| Event | Typical jewellery |
|---|---|
| Mehndi | Lighter gold or kundan-style pieces, floral sets, bangles |
| Barat | Full bridal set — heaviest pieces, haar, tikka, jhoomar, nath |
| Walima | A more elegant set — a lighter necklace, earrings, rings |
Planning weight and budget
- Decide your total budget first, then divide it across the pieces you need.
- Choose karat: 21K is the most popular for bridal sets; 22K for plain heirloom pieces.
- Ask for designs that look full but use less gold — hollow and open work can help.
- Order early — 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding is comfortable in peak season.

How early should I order bridal jewellery?
Ideally 6–8 weeks before the wedding, earlier in peak wedding season, so there’s time for fittings and changes.

Yes — bring or send a picture of your outfit and we’ll suggest designs and stones to match.
