What to Wear to a Gurudwara — For a Wedding, Paath or Any Celebration

A visit to the Gurudwara—whether for an intimate paath, a family celebration, or a soulful Anand Karaj—calls for attire that is respectful, modest and calming. As more couples and families seek meaning, blessings and spiritual depth in their ceremonies, clothing too has shifted toward outfits that feel pure, elegant and culturally rooted.

Why Kurta Sets & Salwar Suits Are Always the Best Choice

For any Gurudwara occasion, a salwar suit or kurta set remains the most accepted and graceful outfit. It’s comfortable for sitting cross-legged during prayers, modest in silhouette, and aligned with Gurudwara decorum. At Love Summer, our pastel Georgette, Chanderi, Mulmul, hand-embroidered and Gota-work kurta sets perfectly suit those seeking a gurdwara wedding outfit or a modest salwar suit for paath—easy, respectful and festive.

The Perfect Colours for a Gurudwara Look

Pastels are the most harmonious for a Gurudwara setting. Soft pinks, powder blues, ivories, mint greens, muted teals, and delicate yellows feel peaceful and blend beautifully with the serene atmosphere of the space. These hues photograph beautifully in morning light—ideal for Anand Karaj ceremonies, kirtans, and daytime celebrations.

How to Style Your Look Respectfully

• Use a dupatta or stole to respectfully cover your head.
• Keep jewellery minimal—jhumkas, a kada, or a delicate maang-tikka.
• Choose breathable fabrics for added comfort during extended periods of sitting.
• Wear juttis or simple flats for ease and tradition.
