Hi,
I've been invited to my friend's Sikh wedding in a couple of month's time. We will go to the Gurdwara part of the wedding as well as the reception afterwards.
I am familiar with some of the important things to remember - like I have to cover my head and there should be no plunging neck lines and legs on display etc, but I am otherwise very stuck on what to wear! I am not Sikh, so would it look completely out of place if I wore a traditional lengha or salwar kameez? If not, where could I get one at a reasonable price that is still nice? I know I should stay away from red, pink, black and white, so would blue/navy or green be ok?
If I don't wear anything traditional what would be the alternatives? I'm on a very tight budget and have absolutely nothing suitable in my wardrobe currently.
Location wise I am in the South West of the UK, so nowhere near London to visit Southall / Ilford etc for outfit shopping!
Any advice gratefully received!
Thanks.
