How to Dress Your Kids for an Indian Wedding

Let’s face it, when it comes to putting on a fancy indian wedding outfit for your 3 year old the task is as daunting as trying to climb mount Everest (okay, we might be exaggerating a little bit, but you get the flow) The pretty crystals are pull-out buttons, the mini Nehru jacket even sometimes becomes a floor pocha – kids and their ability to use one item in multiple different ways will never cease to surprise you. So what is the full proof way to make your baby look cute and have a no-fuss outfit for your next bestie’s wedding? Our Real Wedding Kids came to the rescue to show us how it’s done – light lehengas, comfy anarkalis, suits that button up real good and lots of cuteness to go along with it. Check out this curated list of kidswear handpicked from our Real Weddings section and some a-list designers too!
