Weddings are always both emotional and exciting for me—a celebration of happiness, music, dance, and of course, fashion ! When my best friend’s wedding was finalized, I knew it was going to be a special moment not just for her, but for me too. From selecting the outfit to deciding on the accessories, I personally chose every detail after careful consideration.
But there was one accessory without which my look felt incomplete — a maang tikka.It wasn’t just a jewelry piece; it became the highlight of my entire wedding look.
The Beginning: My Search for the Perfect Maang Tikka
I’ve always been a little hesitant to wear a maang tikka. I thought it was only for brides. But when I was trying on jewelry to go with my best friend’s mehendi outfit, I realized that a simple maang tikka could make the whole look feel royal.
I went to a local boutique that had a beautiful collection of oxidized and Kundan jewelry. I spotted a golden Kundan maang tikka —not too heavy, not too simple. Just the perfect balance. It had a small green stone in the center, which perfectly matched the green dupatta of my mehendi outfit. At that moment, I thought— this must be the one!
The Outfit Connection: Matching It Right
My outfit was mustard yellow with light green detailing. I wanted my jewelry to shine in contrast. So I chose a gold and green kundan maang tikka with matching earrings and choker . When I put it all on and looked in the mirror, I honestly felt a little “wedding vibes”
The maang tikka beautifully framed my entire face. It added a little glow to my forehead and a royal touch to my photos. I realized how much of a difference even a small accessory can make.
The Function Day: Compliments Galore!
On the wedding day, when I wore my outfit and neatly middle-parted my hair, the maang tikka automatically sat in the center—a perfect placement. I usually don’t experiment much with my hairstyle, but this time I went for a soft curls with a half-tie look , which highlighted the maang tikka even more.
Throughout the event, I received numerous compliments – “so elegant”, “so traditional yet stylish”. I felt my risk was successful.
Why I Fell in Love with Maang Tikka
After that event, I realized that a maang tikka isn’t just an accessory—it’s an expression of grace and tradition . It instantly brightens and balances the face, especially when you’re wearing a simple outfit. Now, I wear small maang tikka styles—silver, pearl, or oxidized versions—not just for weddings or festive occasions, but also for more casual functions.
I think every woman should try a maang tikka as part of her style. It’s a piece of jewelry that’s both traditional and trendy.
My Styling Tips (From Experience)
- Hairstyle matters – Maang tikka looks best when your hairstyle is neatly parted.
- Don’t over-accessorize – If the maang tikka is heavy, keep the earrings simple.
- Balance your makeup – Light eye makeup looks perfect with bold tikka.
- Comfort first – Lightweight tikka choose karo taaki poore function me tension-free enjoy kar sako.
Final Thoughts
I now feel that maang tikkas are not just for brides, but for every girl who wants to bring both elegance and tradition to her look.
For me, this accessory became a memory – my best friend’s wedding, a night filled with laughter, dance and compliments where I felt a little more clearly about my style identity. Now whenever I see that maang tikka in my jewellery box, I remember that night – full of love, fun, and a little sparkle!
This blog is based on my personal experience. Every person’s style and comfort is different, so choose a maang tikka or any jewelry piece according to your outfit and comfort.
