Last updated on: December 15, 2015 13:11 IST

Take a cue from these celebrity weddings to glam up your wedding look. You can thank us when the compliments pour in :)

Your wedding is round the corner.

Is your trousseau in place?

If not, dear brides and grooms, don't panic!

Presenting the year's most stylish wedding looks; a beautiful mix of tradition and elegance.

Take a look!

Ladies, for your mehendi ceremony, we recommend a pleated lehenga or a salwar suit with a fashionable twist.

Take inspiration from designer Nishka Lulla's bohemian style at her mehendi.

Or you can ditch the bright colours and rock the bridal look in white, like designer Masaba did!

Be cautious, though, not to get your outfit stained with henna.

Men can keep it simple like her husband, producer Madhu Mantena, did in a bright solid-hued kurta.

Actor Ankita Bhargava swore by a sheer lehenga, while Karan Patel, whose long running television serial Yeh Hai Mohabbatein continues to grab eyeballs, picked a bandhgala for their sangeet ceremony.

Ladies and gentlemen, are you taking notes?

Now for the big day!

For those who prefer the traditional red and maroon, jazz it up with statement pieces of jewellery, like popular television actor Drashti Dhami did on her wedding day.

You can experiment with colours and go for something unconventional like Mira Rajput and Shahid Kapoor.

Mira opted for Anamika Khanna's soft pink embellished lehenga while Shahid wore a cream white sherwani designed by Kunal Rawal, sans the bling.

If you are having a church wedding, follow in India's squash champion Dipika Pallikal's footsteps and stun your guests in a floor-sweeping gown with minimal accessories.

For your reception, keep it understated and classy like Soha Ali Khan and Kunal Khemu.

You could even opt for silver accessories that complement your attire!

Play with colours and maybe crystals.

Archana Kochhar created the perfect crystal studded lehenga for Geeta Basra while and Harbhajan Singh looked adorable in an embroidered sherwani.
