And honestly? It’s not surprising at all. It’s cool and fresh, refined and meaningful and photogenic as you please, all the things a wedding outfit should be.

Whether you are the bride, a bridesmaid or a guest thinking to dress up soberly without going all out dazzling, wish to look elegant in weddings this season, here are some beautiful green salwar kameez sets that truly belong in every pre-wedding and wedding nuptial.

1. Emerald Green for Sangeet Nights

Evening light can make nothing looks as glamorous as emerald green. I always see this color in sangeets now, but it is a pure killer because you have richness without the burden of heavy jewellery.

Opt for:

• georgette or silk Anarkali suits
• sequined sharara sets
• straight-cut suits with light shimmer
• zari embroidered borders

Wear it with diamond or kundan earrings and watch how this one makes the dance floor your ramp.

2. Sage Green for Daytime Engagements

Delicate, calming and super elegant – sage green is an excellent choice for a day engagement ceremony. The colour feels new and complements pastel interiors and outdoor spaces astoundingly.

Choose styles like:

• organza dupatta suits
• A-line suits with pearl work
• minimal thread-embroidered sets

Keep the makeup glowy and the accessories minimal for a calm, polished feel.

3. Mint Green For Haldi And Outdoor Functions

Mint green is such a bright and fresh colour, perfect for those daytime haldi celebrations. It’s light yet soothing, and is perfect under direct sunlight.

Try:

• lightweight chikankari suits
• cotton-silk anarkalis
• printed palazzo sets

Complete the haldi look with floral jewelry or a baby’s breath hair accessory.

4. Bottle Green for Wedding Guests

Bottle green is a classic fave – dark, deep and perfect for evening affairs. It hits the sweet spot between celebratory and grown-up.

Outfit ideas:

• velvety or raw-silk suits with gold embellishments
• sharara sets with minimal embellishments
• straight suits with organza dupattas

Designed with gold heels and a statement clutch to complete the look.

5. Pastel Green for Mehndi Functions

Mehndi functions are all things fun, colourful and comfortable – pale green suits go so well with this vibe! They’re light as a feather, adorable and offer enough space to have a good time without feeling overdressed.

Best choices include:

• short kurti + sharara combinations
• pastel Anarkalis with soft embroidery
• breezy georgette suits and light trim work

Pair with colorful bangle or oxidized jewelry for playfulness.

6. Intimate Family Functions in Olive Green

Olive green is also more understated and elegant for smaller, intimate pre-wedding get-togethers. It’s not overly bright, and it’s not too heavy, this just-right middle-of-the-road tone.

Recommended styles:

• straight-cut embroidered suits
• cotton-silk sets with soft touches of gold
• long kameezes with palazzos and printed dupattas

Good for roka ceremonies, family dinners or smaller engagement rites.

7. Teal Green for Cocktail Evenings and Reception Nights

Teal is the drama queen of greens bright, stark and ideal for nighttime occasions. This is the tone to opt for if you want his focus on you with complete ease.

Outfit ideas:

• shimmer sharara suits
• silk Anarkalis with sequin necklines
• cape-style suits with modern cuts

Accessorize with sultry smoky eyes and statement earrings for the full glam effect.

8. Light Pista Green for Bridesmaids

Pista green has emerged as an outfit colour bridesmaids are loving, and the reason is that it’s subtle, pleasing to the eyes and complements almost every bridal outfit colour. This is especially pretty in group photos.

Recommended styles:

• georgette flared suits
• suit sets with lace detailing
• zari and pastel embroidery combinations

It’s a good balance of festive and delicate.
