Priyanka Chopra-Inspired Bridal Looks

Written by Shivani K  • 

India is a country where weddings are celebrated like festivals. It has everything that a festival has and sometimes much more than that. From colorful lights, bouquet of flowers, gluttonous food indulgence, to the union of two souls and families, it has it all. You learn about each other’s family, their traditions, and cultures, in short, you celebrate each other’s worlds together. That’s why weddings are an eagerly awaited celebration in every Indian household. And there’s no wedding better than our own desi girl Priyanka Chopra’s wedding to help us understand all of this. Wait, we need to address her as Priyanka Chopra Jonas now.

She had a dream wedding that had both the Hindu ceremonies and the Christian wedding. And if you plan on marrying the love of your life anytime soon, then there’s no better inspiration for your bridal looks than ourdesi girl. Because Priyanka’s wedding looks have all the elements in them – the bold and modern dulhan, the shy desi dulhan, thebindaas bride, and the dream bride in that white gown. Let’s take a look at her bridal looks one by one to seek some inspiration and ideas for your D-day!

1. The Mehendi Look

Priyanka’s mehendi look is extremely colorful which matches the true essence of every happy emotion that a bride experiences. She looked vibrant in this fabulously folksy en-semble which was multi-hued. She chose to team her outfit with heirloom jewelry and opted for a no-makeup look. We mean her makeup was light and fresh, and very minim-al which made her look her natural best.
If you’re someone who wants to look like a colorful, fun bride then consider this look.

To Get This Look Right:
  • Pick a weightless foundation which gives a matte finish. That way you have the matte look and at the same time, it feels light on your skin.
  • Make sure your eye makeup looks subtle as well.
  • For the lips, opt for a shade that is cute. A pretty blush, peach, or any of the pink hues will do the trick for you. Make sure they give the matte finish.

2. The Sangeet Look

Sequin sarees have been a rage like forever now. It’s chic, it’s bold, and it has the right level of shimmer. Even Priyanka opted for a saree which was embroidered with sequins in the colors of gold and silver. She chose to let her tresses down by leaving her hair open. Her makeup took her entire look a notch higher. It’s always important to wear a comfortable outfit for your sangeet ceremony as there will surely be a lot of dancing to do.

To Get This Look:
  • Prep your face with the right tone of foundation that matches your skin.
  • Play with your eye makeup. You can either go smoky with the eyes to tone down your shimmery outfit or just keep it simple with a nice liner and mascara and ei-ther a silver or a gold eye shadow that would match the saree.
  • And go nude with your lips. It will make you look drop dead gorgeous.

3. The Christian Wedding Dress

Priyanka’s wedding gown is giving goals to every bride-to-be out there. Why wouldn’t it, right? Ralph Lauren designed it for her. The dress boasts of beautiful ivory thread work which has nearly 5,600 pearls and 11,632 crystals, and nearly 2,412,000 high-luster se-quins embedded in it. Okay, don’t get worked up about bagging such a grand dress. We are talking about looks, right? So, let’s stick to that (wink wink).

To Get This Look:
  • We’d say apply a primer so that your makeup lasts longer.
  • And then apply the foundation followed by applying some compact powder.
  • If your wedding is being held during the day, use less shimmer highlights and go for a nude look. Pick a peach shade lip color that will suit your skin tone.
  • If you want a dewy look like Priyanka, brush up your face and cheeks with a nice blush color.

4. The Hindu Ceremony

Firstly, she wore a Sabyasachi bridal ensemble (that can make any bride look like a dream). She wore a fiery red lehenga for the Hindu ceremony. The outfit had embroide-ries in the form of hand-cut flowers, layers of thread work, and included French knots made of silk thread. Her veil added a western touch to the entire outfit. That’s something that every bride can be inspired by. Your otherwise traditional lehengas can have a modern choli or a veil you see.

To Get This Look:
  • Like the rest of her looks, even this had the same theme – radiant, subtle, and dewy. And if you’re considering Priyanka’s bridal looks as your inspiration then keep this in mind.
  • And there’s nothing like a “blushing bride”, right? Therefore, use a rosy blush on the apples of your cheeks.
  • You can definitely go dramatic with your eyes for this look. Use shades of bronze or gold as your eye shadow.
  • Even with your lips, you can take the bold route here. Don’t go for a bright red, opt for a duller red with matte finish.
  • Now, use a setting spray to make sure your makeup is on point on this important day.
