Winter wedding plus post wedding questions!

Miscellaneous

Hi everyone! I know these might sound like silly questions, but I’m getting married in Delhi on 23rd January and I just want to be properly prepared.

It’ll be peak winter, and I feel cold very easily. Part of my wedding is outdoors (varmala + stage) and pheras will be indoors, so I’m trying to figure out: What do brides wear under their lehenga to stay warm? Do you wear thermals, gym tights, Uniqlo Heattech, or something else? My hands and feet stay super cold so any hacks are welcome. I also don’t want to try the warming lotions at this point and risk skin reactions.

Second thing — post-wedding rituals. After vidai (around 4–5 AM), we’ll have games like kangana around 9–10 AM. Do brides redo their hair and makeup for this, or keep the same look and just change clothes? I haven’t seen this personally, so I’m really confused about what normally happens. Do they take bath and rewear the wedding lehenga again? For context I am a JAAT.

I’m thinking of washing my hair later at a salon when I come back to my parents’ house for Pagafere, but I’m not sure if that’s what people usually do.

Any hack, trick, or suggestion would be really helpful — I just want to be prepared for anything and everything! ❤️
