Rakshabandhan is one festival that women, young and old alike look forward. It is a day when each sister gets to celebrate their brother and as every brother vows to protect his sister. For a to-be-bride, who will soon embark on a new journey in her life, and celebrate this Rakshabandhan as the last one as a single, this day is even more precious.
So, why not celebrate this brother-sister festival in style? Celebrated with much pomp across India, on Rakhi, sisters dress in their best, do aarti and tie a Rakhi on their brother’s wrist. It is also a day when the sisters are showered with gifts and money by their brothers. And if it is your last Rakshabandhan before you tie the knot, it’d be great that you turn up dressed in your best attire!
P.S. It is also a great way to tell your brother to increase the sum of money he plans to gift you 😉!
Therefore, to look your best on such an auspicious and fun day, we bring you 6 Rakshabandhan outfit inspirations for brides-to-be!
