Unique Features of Wedding Kanjivarams
Wedding Kanjivarams stand apart because of their grandeur and significance. Some of their distinct features include:

- Rich Colours: Shades of red, maroon, pink, and gold are traditional choices, symbolising prosperity and good fortune.
- Durability: Made with strong mulberry silk, these sarees last for generations and are often passed down as heirlooms.
- Intricate Motifs: Traditional designs like peacocks, elephants, and checks are commonly used for bridal sarees.
Brides who prefer variety can also explore our bridal saree collection or muhurtham sarees designed for auspicious ceremonies.
Styling Tips for Wedding Kanjivaram Sarees
Wedding Kanjivarams are naturally rich and elegant, but styling makes them even more special:
- Pair with silk blouses in gold, maroon, or contrasting jewel tones.
- Temple jewellery complements the zari work beautifully, while diamond or pearl sets bring in a modern touch.
- Coordinate your look with family by matching sarees with silk dhotis for men and pavadai sets for kids.
- For reception looks, you can also style with fancy sarees or embroidered sarees for added glamour.
Care Tips
Since wedding Kanjivarams are heavy and woven with zari, proper care is important:
- Always dry clean, never wash at home.
- Store wrapped in muslin cloth to let the silk breathe.
- Refold every few months to avoid zari creases.
- Keep in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture.

- Engagements: Pastel pinks, peaches, or cream shades from our engagement saree range are popular picks.
