The Marwari Bride
Carrying forward the legacy of her royally rich culture, a Marwari bride’s outfit & ornaments
speak for itself. Dressed in a lehenga, the bride is decked in the grandeur of her traditional
jewellery like Rakhri, the Polka Raani Haar-Bhutti set, and enameled gold chooda. Aad, a 2-set
choker adds grace to her neck, while a Baju Bandh & a Hathphool completes her look. Following
the grandeur of each tradition of the Marwari wedding, she celebrates her new beginnings.
Nath
Marwari brides have always doted on their Naths and this gorgeous ornament can be traced to the
old Bani Thani paintings of Rajasthan too. It is believed that the bigger the Nath, more affluent
the family. As the Naths kept getting bigger and more intricate, the chain crafted in gold or
interspersed with pearls was affixed to add a thread of charm and security to it.
